Owl Smart Ring

Owl is a smart wearable technology company focused on developing innovative sleep aid, health, and fitness products. Our story began when Owl founder Jay was frequently woken up by his girlfriend's morning alarm clock, which she often slept through. Jay also don't like keeping his mobile phone nearby during sleep as it led to mindless scrolling on social media, disrupting his sleep. Jay discovered that this was a widespread problem. 71% of Americans sleep with their phones, 61% check them within 5 minutes of waking up, and 59% do the same within 30 minutes before bed. Additionally, 45.7% of adolescents use their phones as alarm clocks, and 50% are disturbed by their alarms. Using his product design expertise, Jay developed a smart ring that provides discreet, noise-free notifications through gentle vibrations on the finger. At Owl, we are dedicated to helping users wake up peacefully while offering smart functionality and sleep analysis to ensure they get the rest they need and reduce the mobile dependency. Owl is currently in the prototyping stage, with the first version set to launch in September. Do you struggle with morning alarm disruptions? Do you keep your mobile phone next to you at night? If so, we’d love to hear your story.
