I need one of these! This bracelet tracks your sleep habits and wakes you at the perfect moment using difficult words and fancy technology. It promises to wake you up at the exact right moment in your sleep when you are really half awake and ready to go.

“The WakeMate wristband uses Actigraphy to monitor your sleep cycles and pinpoints the precise moment when you should wake up, in a twenty minute window set to your specifications.”

Pre-ordering now! You can get one for $50 if you pre-order and pay $5 now:

  • How exactly it works?
  • Hey guys,

    Arun Gupta, co-founder of the WakeMate here. Just wanted to say that its awesome the product is getting so much buzz and come Jan 25th I have no doubt it will live up to the hype!
    Additionally Brandon is not affiliated with us, just someone enthusiastic about the product. I hate those fake reviews also. Brandon, thanks for the interest! Our initial units are pretty exclusive so you must know someone special!

    So... Arun Gupta. When you're going to pay me for that wakemate logo?

    Thanks,
  • Could you do us all a favor and let us know how the WakeMate compares to the Sleep Cycle App?
  • Reüel
    I'm sorry, but I can't. I don't own the WakeMate, so I have no idea how it compares. All I know is that Sleep Cycle is much cheaper and works perfectly fine :)
  • Reüel
    There's an app called Sleep Cycle. It's cheaper, doesn't need a wristband and it's available today, so you don't have to wait. Best of it: Sleep Cycle works as advertised. Cool awake/dreaming/deep sleep-graphs and it also has the alarm function which tries to wake you at the best time. It really works!

    * I'm not the developer of Sleep Cycle, just a happy user. *
  • Insider
    Brandon is obviously working for them, or is a PR for them
  • Paranoia will get you through times of no enemies better than enemies will get you through times of no paranoia...
  • I pre-ordered the WakeMate. I know someone who has one already, he says it's great. He said they have a pretty good dashboard of statistics and stuff. I'm just wait waiting for mine to be sent!
  • Did you order it just from the site?
  • Yeah I ordered from the site a little while back. I found out afterwards I know someone related to the company so I'm bugging him to bump me up on the list of people but I don't think that will happen.
