Overview

Sleep at the push of a button!
How It Works
To understand how, you first have to understand why. Poor sleep has been declared a public health epidemic by the CDC. 70MM people in the US, 31% of Europe and 2 billion people globally suffer from insomnia.
The vast majority of cases of people suffering from poor sleep are caused by a disease called, “too much thinking;” people lie awake at night unable to shut off their brains.
So the key is if you can quiet the mind, you can induce sleep. That’s what Pzizz does.
Our patented system combines sleep optimized music, voiceover, and sound effects that change each night, that will quickly quiet your mind, put you to sleep, keep you asleep, and wake you up feeling refreshed.
All you have to do is listen to Pzizz. Headphones/earbuds are recommended for optimal effectiveness, but your built-in phone speaker will work too.
Does it actually work?
Yes. Author JK Rowling and NBA star Roy Hibbert are big fans, and we’ve received positive reviews from the NYT, WIRED, Engadget, Lifehacker and more.
Is there Science behind it?
Yes. We’ve had initial clinical validation and spend a great deal of time turning academic and clinical research into reality. Check out the science behind Pzizz on our blog for more information.
What Makes Us Different
Our sleep researchers work closely with our audio engineers to create beautiful dreamscapes that are backed by academic psycho-acoustics, and we pair these musical dreamscapes with voice narrations based on clinical sleep interventions, and then infuse them with personalization driven through our learning algorithms so you have a different audio sequence each night (which is important to keep Pzizz effective over time).

The Focus Module
One of the biggest causes of “too much thinking” at night is work stress. To help combat this and the general epidemic of distraction, we created the Focus Module: music to help you get in the zone and be more productive. Learn more about it here.
Sleep Matters to Businesses Too!
Insomnia is costing the US workforce $63 billion per Year; in the UK £40 billion per year. Companies are starting to fight back. The 60 hour work week is dying. Smart businesses understand there’s great ROI on sleep, and are encouraging — and even sometimes paying — their staff to get good rest.
