Overview

Somnox develops a patented, science-backed Sleep Robot that simulates calm breathing and uses sensors to help users slow their breath, reduce stress, and fall asleep naturally. The product was developed by founder Joep Jagtenberg after researching breathing techniques and prototyping at Delft University of Technology. The company launched the first-generation Somnox 1 in 2019 and brought a second-generation model to market in November of the prior year. Somnox reports that about 20,000 poor sleepers at home and abroad have used the device. The company has set a mission to help 100 million people worldwide achieve better sleep by 2030. Its positioning emphasizes a natural, non‑pharmaceutical approach to addressing widespread sleep problems and insomnia.
