Sleep.ai

Sleep.ai operates as an AI-powered sleep intelligence platform, originating as a spin-out from ResMed, a leader in sleep medical devices, and was formerly known as SleepScore Labs before rebranding. The company was founded in 2016 by Colin Lawlor, who currently serves as CEO, and Michiel Allessie. Lawlor brings over 14 years of experience in sleep technology, including six years at ResMed, while the leadership team includes COO Gil Adato, with extensive experience in health and wellness technology at companies like Philips and Samsung. In April 2018, SleepScore Labs acquired the original Sleep.ai, a Dutch startup founded in 2016 that developed an app for tracking snoring and teeth grinding. In August 2025, the company secured $5.5 million in venture funding to accelerate commercialization and expand partner integrations.

The company's business model is centered on providing its sleep intelligence platform to other businesses through APIs and SDKs, enabling them to integrate sleep data and insights into their own products and services. Sleep.ai serves a wide range of clients, including companies in digital health, wellness, insurance, consumer electronics, and hospitality. Revenue is generated by offering these partners access to its extensive dataset and AI-driven analytics. Notable partnerships include collaborations with Therabody to validate the sleep benefits of their products and Wellhub, a corporate wellness platform that integrated Sleep.ai's app.

The Sleep.ai platform is built on a massive dataset of over 800 million hours of real-world sleep data, complemented by more than 250 scientific studies and over 90 publications. This platform unifies four core capabilities: SleepScore Labs for R&D and product validation; the SleepScore consumer app, which functions as both a data collection engine and a direct-to-consumer product; reimbursed sleep improvement programs like "Dein Schlaf" in Germany; and the aforementioned APIs and SDKs for partners. A key technology is a non-contact, sonar-based sensor that turns a smartphone into an accurate sleep monitor, validated against clinical standards. The platform analyzes this data to provide personalized, science-backed recommendations and predictive models to help companies and their customers improve sleep and overall health outcomes.
