Eight Sleep
Sleep fitness company building the Pod — an AI-powered smart mattress cover with temperature regulation and biometric tracking
About
Eight Sleep is a sleep fitness company founded in 2014. Their flagship product, the Pod, is a smart mattress cover with an integrated Hub that actively regulates bed temperature per side, tracks biometric data, detects and reduces snoring via automatic elevation, and adapts in real-time using their Autopilot AI system. The Pod learns each sleeper's preferences and health patterns to make automatic adjustments throughout the night.
The company sits at the intersection of hardware engineering, machine learning, and health science. Their engineering teams build embedded firmware, mobile apps, backend services, ML models for biometric sensing and personalization, and the physical thermal/mechanical systems in the Pod itself. Eight Sleep is backed by investors including Khosla Ventures, Y Combinator, Valor Equity Partners, SoftBank, and Founders Fund.
Eight Sleep is headquartered in New York City with offices in San Francisco and Milan. They ship to 30+ countries and hire across software engineering, ML/AI research, hardware engineering, data science, product, design, and growth.
