Wearable neuromodulation technology for faster sleep, on-demand.

Big news
After 7.5 years building @elemindtech, I'm excited to share the biggest milestone in our company's history: Elemind has been acquired! We'll share more details at the right time, but this is a big win for Elemind and for neuromodulation technology. My co-founder David Wang and I are moving to the Bay Area to join the acquiring company full-time and become part of their team. We've gotten to know the team well over the last few months, and we're excited to work together in this next chapter where we'll have the opportunity to put Elemind's technology in front of vastly more people than before with the scale, resources and platform of a publicly traded company behind us. More to come. We started Elemind on a belief that precisely timed stimulation could move the brain from one state to another, without drugs. We took that from the lab to market, shipping Elemind to 10k people, starting with sleep. Along the way we completed multiple clinical trials, published our research, earned customers like Nike & Google, & built a patent portfolio around the technology. What a journey! If you own an Elemind headband, nothing changes for you today. Your device, app and membership will continue to work, and support is still here at [email protected] — This was a team effort, start to finish: To the Elemind team: David Wang, @eboyden3 , @Heather_L_Read , Nir Grossman, Roshan Rajappa, Matt Workman, Jo McKinney, Ryan Neely, Scott Bressler, Ryan Yost, Greg Burlingame, Tyler Gage, Dhushan, Anna, Justin, Susan McBride, Zoe Coady. You built something that didn't exist before with a fraction of the resources most companies have. A very special shoutout to @PankajKedia , who is an n of 1. There is no better investor, advisor, or friend. You made me and Elemind infinitely better, and I am forever your champion. To the people who fought beside me: Susan Paley, who helped through every battle; @kenhertz who has been with me through every company; Ariel Ganz who is just incredible; Benjamin Rolnik; Joe Cannon; Mark Kovacs. And to Craig Venter, who isn't here to see this, and who I wish were. To our investors, thank you for believing in us: Qing Zhang & Winston Fu from LDVP Partners, @eriktorenberg , Village Global, Metaplanet; Anuj Malhotra; Jenny Liu; Sumeet Vadera; Sean Kelly & Josh Wand from The Family Fund, Kurt Seidensticker; Matthew Rogers; Embark Ventures; E14 Fund; Joyance Partners; Pehong Chen; Thomas Layton; Ariel Poler, Daniel & Michael Broukhim; Gaingels; Sumit Nagpal, Al Campanella, Mike Sutcliffe; Igor Gonta, Joshua Wachman; Tucker Hughes; Jeff; Sahir Ali; David Golob; David Michaels; Justin Yarborough To my dad, Arthur W. Perry, MD, FACS, who has advised me on every contract since my first one at uBeam, through this one. And most of all, to my husband @pmchek, who is an absolute warrior. I could not have done this without him.

Wearables are moving from "read-only" to "read-write" — devices that don't just track your body but act on it. @elemindtech's EEG headband reads brain activity and delivers timed sound to help you sleep faster, no drugs aol.com/articles/read-only-w… #DigitalHealth #Wearables

Some exciting news: Elemind’s closed-loop neuromodulation technology now works in an earbud. We've demonstrated Elemind's closed-loop stimulation through an in-ear form factor, matching our headband's stimulation phase accuracy. This is important because sleep was only the first use case for Elemind, and while a headband form factor is perfectly fine for sleeping, it's not something people would want to wear during the day. For daytime brain states (attention, stress, focus, cognitive performance), our technology needs to live in something people already wear all day. Earbuds are that form factor. This is not yet for sale. It’s a working prototype. But we’re very excited to bring this to select partners in the audio and consumer electronics space. If you’re a major consumer electronics company looking to dramatically expand what earbuds or headphones can do, DM us

Game. Set. SLEEP! Really exciting to see Elemind in use by the players at Roland-Garros this year! 🎾 🇫🇷 This year at Roland-Garros, athletes stepped into RēCOVER's Recovery Room between matches, turning to Elemind for on-demand naps to reset, recharge, and return to the court ready.

THE NEW ELEMIND APP IS LIVE. New features. New data. A whole new look. Last night’s dream. How you moved through the night. Whether you slept on your back or your side. The new Elemind app is live in the App Store and on Google Play today, with the things members have been asking for. Sleep position and head movement tracking. A redesigned data experience with richer trends over time. A Dream Journal that captures last night’s dream and turns it into an image. And a share button so members can send a night’s sleep data to a partner, a friend, or their doctor. Deep sleep stimulation is what we’re building next. If you wear Elemind, update your app now!
