CircadiaOS is software-only sleep optimization. No mattress pod, no proprietary sensor, no new hardware. It connects the wearable and smart thermostat you already own, builds a personalized overnight temperature schedule from your biometrics, and runs your thermostat through it automatically every night. Most premium sleep tech in this category has been hardware-first: thousand-dollar mattress pods, dedicated sensors, custom firmware. We took the opposite bet.
Hey PH! Dominic here, CEO of CircadiaOS, launching today with my cofounders Jackson
(COO) and Armani (CTO).
Quick story on why we built this. My mom went through menopause and her sleep fell apart.
Night sweats, waking up overheated, hours awake at 3am. She tried everything. Cooling sheets,
fans, the works. Nothing held up because the temperature she needed was not a single number, it
was a moving target across the night that her body could not communicate to her thermostat.
Meanwhile she already had an Apple Watch on her wrist tracking everything in real time, and a
smart thermostat on the wall doing nothing with that information. Two devices, sitting two feet
apart, with no relationship to each other. That gap is the whole product.
CircadiaOS reads her biometrics every morning, figures out what worked the night before, and
runs her thermostat the next night accordingly. After about two weeks of calibration the system
locks onto her specific physiology and the schedule starts compounding. She sleeps through the
night now.
The bigger bet: every premium sleep tech company has tried to solve this with proprietary
hardware. We think the hardware is already in the room. The product is the intelligence layer that
makes it work together.
Would love your feedback, your upvotes, and your honest roasts. We are live in comments all
day.
"sleep optimization without the $3k mattress pod" is the kind of positioning that writes itself for r/biohackers + r/selfimprovement. quora's "what cheap alternatives exist to eight sleep" is sitting there with no answer. own that one search query and you'll get organic traffic for months.
Sounds promising! I don't have a smart thermostat, nor I am able to connect one to my AC, but the idea in itself sounds interesting
Love the idea, but yeah, you need actual devices that can regulate the temperature in your bedroom.
