Overview
Tagline: Sleep at the push of a button!
Description: Using the science of psycho-acoustics, Pzizz’s patented system plays you a sleep optimized mix of music, voiceover, and sound effects that changes each night, that will quickly quiet your mind, put you to sleep, keep you asleep, and wake you up feeling refreshed.
Does it actually work? Yes. Author JK Rowling and NBA star Roy Hibbert are big fans, and we’ve received positive reviews from the NYT, WIRED, Engadget, Lifehacker and more.
How it works: To understand how, you first have to understand why. Poor sleep has been declared a public health epidemic by the CDC. 60MM people in the US, 31% of Europe and 2 billion people globally suffer from insomnia.
The vast majority of cases of people suffering from poor sleep are caused by a disease called, “too much thinking;” people lie awake at night unable to shut off their brains.
So the key is if you can calm the mind, you can induce sleep. That’s what Pzizz does. Our patented system intelligently combines music, voiceover, and sound effects that are optimized for each part of your sleep cycle, to quickly quiet your mind, put you to sleep, keep you asleep, and wake you up feeling refreshed. All you have to do is listen to Pzizz.
What Makes Us Different
We have sleep researchers that work closely with our audio engineers to create beautiful dreamscapes that are backed by academic psycho-acoustics, and we pair these musical dreamscapes with voice scripts based on clinical sleep hypnosis, and then infuse them with personalization driven through our learning algorithms so you have a different audio sequence each night (which is important to keep Pzizz effective over time). It’s wild, and incredibly potent. You can read about the science behind Pzizz here.
The Broader Story
The CDC has declared poor sleep is a public health epidemic. Companies are fighting back. The 60 hour work week is dying. Smart businesses understand there’s great ROI on sleep, and are encouraging — and even sometimes paying — their staff to get good rest. Sleep as a category is really heating up, especially with Arianna Huffington’s new best-selling book, The Sleep Revolution, where she extols the need to ‘sleep your way to the top,’ and her movement with Thrive Global.
Partnerships
Pzizz has partnered with Metronaps to power the audio experience in their pods and bring great sleep to the workplace. You can find these pods at many locations worldwide, including corporates (Google, Mercedes, Zappos, etc) and Airports (JFK, London Luton).
Our app is also part of Merck’s internal corporate wellness program “Live It,” helping Merck employees beat their insomnia.
Previously we also partnered with Casper over the Sleep Symposium,
