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 :)
Michael Seibel
Amazing work - congrats!
Massimo Andreasi
@mwseibel thanks Michael! Especially for the great mentoring! :)

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 :(

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
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

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?

Nice! I've been using the mattress cover for a while now, and really love it. Congrats, all :)
