Idea or High Level Concept
Patent-pending nasal wearable that uses breath analysis and haptic feedback to improve sleep without a CPAP. 150 presales, first production run underway.
Traction and Current Status
150 presale customers, over $20K in accepted volume at $249 per unit. Patent application filed December 2025. First production run underway. Licensing conversations initiated with ResMed, Philips, and Meta
Problem or Opportunity
Over 1 billion people suffer from sleep-disordered breathing. CPAP is the standard treatment but has a 50% abandonment rate due to discomfort, noise, and stigma. There is no effective non-prescription alternative.
Solution
The Sanctuary Band is a soft nasal wearable that monitors breath acoustics and delivers gentle haptic feedback to support nasal airway opening during sleep. No mask, no machine, no prescription required. Patent pending.
Business Model, Chanells, Metrics
Direct-to-consumer sales at $249 per unit, with a subscription software layer in development. On the road to FDA clearance and reimbursement coding under Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance, which opens a clinical and institutional sales channel. B2B licensing to strategic partners in the sleep and wearables industry including ResMed, Philips, and Therabody.
