Sound AiSleep is building a smart bedtime coach for kids– a personalised audio platform that helps kids fall asleep to the most powerful sound in their world: their parents' voice. Research shows that familiar voices instantly soothe children, reduce stress, and improve focus, making voice the most natural sleep aid.
Using just a short voice sample, parents can generate audiobooks narrated in their own voice, while also receiving gentle sleep tracking and personalised story recommendations to support healthier routines. We’re combining science-backed storytelling with wellness tech to help families feel close, calm, and connected– even when apart.
Our vision is to transform bedtime into a space where stories soothe, voices comfort, and children develop lasting, healthy sleep habits. With our MVP live on the App Store with early publisher partners already on board.
But this is just the beginning. We’re developing a platform that combines:
* The science of voice: Harnessing the unique calming power of a parent’s voice to support children’s emotional regulation and sleep.
* Personalised storytelling: A growing library of children's stories, tailored to a child’s needs.
* Smart sleep tracking: Parents can check in on their child’s sleep and mood, unlocking personalised recommendations.
* Evidence-based wellbeing: We’re collaborating with child psychologists and authors to design stories that don’t just entertain, but actively help children fall asleep faster and sleep better.
