Hey, @maghis! I've been meaning to ask you why you decided to move from gaming + analytics to building products to help people sleep better?
Massimo Andreasi

@rrhoover this is sort of big data analytics, but to improve people lives: the tech is similar, the purpose is different :)

Amazing work - congrats!

@mwseibel thanks Michael! Especially for the great mentoring! :)

Hi @maghis, curious to know why you all didn't just make the "technology layer" as a mattress cover? Would seem to be more marketable that way? Or would it be too unreliable on some mattress surfaces?
Martin Kessler
Great job! I have been enjoying the mattress pad for a little while now. Much better sleep tracking than with my Fitbit. Is the mattress going to have any features that the pad doesn't have?
Massimo Andreasi

@kesslerio we'll give the same features and software support to both products

awesome product, been using my cover for three months now, nice to be in the driver seat of what I do for 6 to 8 hours every day

@thinkshiv should be fixed now, sorry Shiven

Can you adjust the hardness/softness of the bed or area on the bed? Does tracking work if two people sleep on the mattress?
Massimo Andreasi

@benjaminefox sleep tracking is completely dual-zone (so is the warming) but you cannot change the comfort of the mattress

@maghis Any chance of IFTTT support? edit: nvm seems there is IFTTT support already!

Eight is AWESOME, I've been using the cover and it detects temperature, breathing rate, sleep stage, etc with super high precision. I was blown away when I installed the app and saw features like scheduled bed heating and ambiance, did not expect it. I just bought a tempurpedic though so unlikely I'll get to try this mattress :(
