For all these years, we've been looking at health in a static way. From blood analysis, to X-rays and so on.
Inevitably we've been speaking about how health is broken, and how data and AI will fix this over the years.
You see, data from wearables are dynamic, hence you can build apps and solutions on them.
About a year ago, we met with Matteo (CEO of Eight Sleep) during our Y-Combinator batch, and got so fascinated by their product. They created a sleep mattress technology, that uses your dynamic data - HRV, heart rate, and sleep cycles, to regulate the temperature and optimise your sleep, without you doing anything.
The mattress cools or heats, based on the sleep cycle stage, and hence optimises your sleep.
They are one of the biggest innovators in the world, in the space of fitness and health - having raised more than $170m in investments, from Khosla, Founders Fund, Valor Equity Partners, Y-Combinator, General Catalyst and others.
Since they build one of the most fantastic products in the world, and they started using Terra to aggregate more data to their product, we scheduled this video podcast, to learn more from Matteo about company building, sleep, wearables, health data and investments in startups.
