At Ozlo, we believe that your best tomorrow begins tonight. With science-driven sound, thoughtful design, and all-night comfort, our sleepbuds help people fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up truly restored.
Sleep is not a luxury. It’s a necessity – one that’s often sacrificed in today’s noisy, always-on world.
We started Ozlo with a simple but powerful mission: to restore the world’s relationship with sleep. Because when sleep improves, everything does—focus, mood, resilience, creativity, connection.
A Letter from Our Founder
Dear Sleep,
We have an inconsistent relationship for sure, but I can't imagine life without you. Our relationship goes back before I even arrived into this universe. You've helped me grow and become who I am today. I used to spend almost a 1/3 of my day with you, but because of life continuously expanding, multiple priorities at work, and balancing my personal life, I don't get to prioritize the same amount of time.
I know how I feel spending 7-8 hours daily with you—calm, healthy, and younger, with lots of energy for the entire day. When we don't get that time, I feel irritated, and I lack energy and motivation.
I feel that positive impact already, and I'm excited for others to experience the uplifting effects. We want to share this solution with the world so that millions of people who cannot spend the same amount of time with you, still reap your benefits.
Our goal is for all of the world to sleep well.
CEO + Co-Founder of Ozlo
How it all began
Ozlo was born from a shared frustration:
sleep shouldn’t be this hard.
After years leading innovation at companies like Bose, our founding team, including audio engineers, sleep researchers, and product designers, set out to create a solution that honored sleep for what it truly is: restorative, essential, and deeply personal.
Our breakthrough came not through noise-cancelling headphones or smart alarms, but by designing something radically different: small, comfortable Sleepbuds that blend science-backed, sound-masking audio with sensor-driven intelligence, helping people sleep better naturally.
Why Ozlo
In a world where burnout has become
the norm, Ozlo offers a quiet revolution.
Our technology doesn’t compete for your attention – it disappears into your routine, to help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. We don’t believe in tracking for tracking’s sake. We believe in sharing meaningful sleep data around your sleep environment and patterns and helping you quiet the noise, both inside your mind and around you. We believe in feeling better, every day.
Whether you're navigating a noisy city, a snoring partner, stress, or simply too many thoughts running through your mind –
Ozlo helps you find rest again.
