Overcoming Implementation Challenges for Businesses
Previously, businesses looking to offer sleep tech services faced significant hurdles, including the development of sleep analysis applications and the preparation of dedicated hardware. Sleep HUB addresses these challenges by offering a pre-installed sleep analysis application that includes sleep support content and a report export function. This makes it a comprehensive, one-stop sleep tech solution, simplifying integration for service providers.
About Asleep Inc.
Asleep Inc. is dedicated to “improving people’s quality of life through sleep” by providing sleep analysis and improvement solutions powered by sound analysis and AI technology. Their solutions boast precision levels comparable to Polysomnography (PSG), which is utilized in medical institutions and university hospitals. This high standard is substantiated by KFDA approval in Korea and an ongoing FDA application in the United States.
Simple and Accessible Usage
Sleep HUB is designed for effortless deployment and use:
- Place the Sleep HUB tablet by the pillow.
- Before bed, answer simple questions about your sleep and physical/mental state.
- Set an alarm to begin use.
After sleeping, a detailed sleep report can be viewed by scanning a QR code. The system requires no dedicated app installation or complex operations, making it ideal for smooth implementation in various settings, including hotels and accommodation facilities.
