Stay Asleep:

Apollo's Sleep Breakthrough, Backed by Science, Powered by SmartVibes AI

Ever find yourself jolted awake in the middle of the night, checking the clock to realize it’s only 2 a.m.? You might search online for how to sleep better and find information on things like mouth taping, herbal tinctures, or habit-forming sleep aids. 

While compelling, the influencer-hawked sleep tips on social media are often only temporary fixes and usually don’t have the research to back them up. And medication for sleep can come with next-day grogginess, impaired memory, and an unhealthy reliance on the medication.

This is what sets Apollo apart—it’s research-backed sleep support that actually works, without the disruptive side effects or risk of dependency. 

And not only has Apollo been scientifically proven to help people sleep longer and increase their REM sleep (as evidenced in a recent landmark clinical study), but our latest technology has improved even further for a personalized experience designed to help you achieve better sleep.

Stay Asleep, Apollo’s sleep breakthrough powered by SmartVibes AI, works with your body’s natural rhythm and responds in real time to support a good night’s sleep. It’s a wearable that actively improves your sleep, not just tracks it. 

How Apollo Works for Better Sleep 

Apollo Wearable has been at the forefront of nervous system technology, using gentle vibrations to activate the vagus nerve. These Vibes signal safety to the nervous system and help the body move towards a different state. 

By shifting from fight-or-flight mode into a state of rest and recovery, your body can relax, let go of stress, and settle into deeper, more natural sleep — without relying on medication or other substances. 

Our Vibes are inspired by the rhythms the body already responds to, including breathing patterns, soothing touch, meditation, and biofeedback. Each Vibe is a pattern of low-frequency vibrations designed to support a specific state, including calm, focus, recovery, and sleep. 

Now, with our new AI-powered breakthrough, better sleep just became easier, and personalized for your unique sleeping patterns.

Unlike other wearables on the market that simply track your sleep, Apollo helps you actually achieve longer and better quality sleep, as evidenced in the latest peer-reviewed sleep study that analyzed retrospective data from Apollo and Oura Ring users.

While the data in this study was collected back when people were manually turning on Apollo each night, the technology has since evolved to ask a new question: what if Apollo could do that automatically, in real time?

That’s where Stay Asleep comes in. Stay Asleep is the first experience built on SmartVibes AI, and when worn overnight, can actively help you get a better night’s sleep. 

Stay Asleep can sense when you begin to stir and automatically responds with personalized vibrations to help you settle back into sleep. Instead of having to make decisions in the middle of the night to tap the wearable or turn on the app, Apollo is already working quietly in the background. Stay Asleep learns your patterns over time and supports your body exactly when it needs it.

Because Stay Asleep removes the need to manually trigger Apollo, the technology improves on the sleep benefits observed in the study. In 2025 alone, Apollo users gained over 140 million minutes of extra sleep using the technology.

Why Quality Sleep Is So Important

Getting enough sleep is an important pillar of overall health, yet approximately 70 million Americans sleep just six or fewer hours a night, which is less than the CDC's nightly recommendation of seven or more hours. This is why the clinical research findings showing that Apollo users had a 77% lower odds of sleeping less than six hours is so important.

The negative health implications are seen at this six hours or less mark, especially when it’s consistent. While the immediate effects of poor sleep are felt the next day in the form of fatigue, lack of focus, cravings, and irritability, long-term this can lead to an increased risk of obesity, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.

Chronic lack of sleep has also been linked to increased mortality and a 30% higher risk of dementia. Yet quality sleep is often viewed as a luxury and neglected as an essential aspect of health and longevity. 

You Can Improve Your Sleep — and Improve Your Health

Fortunately, improving sleep duration and quality can help reverse some of these risks, and the effects are seen after just one week of better sleep. In the study with Oura, researchers found that wearing Apollo for at least three hours overnight helped people achieve an average of 46 more minutes of sleep. They also experienced more REM sleep, which is the sleep stage tied to memory processing, emotional regulation, and mental focus. And in 2025, Apollo users gained the equivalent of over 273 years of reclaimed sleep. 

Transitioning from a stressful day into a state of relaxation at night can be difficult, but Apollo helps ease this shift by activating the vagus nerve and allowing you to achieve deeper rest. 

So not only does Stay Asleep support better sleep in the moment overnight, but using Apollo during the day can calm your nervous system, especially in stressful situations, and help prepare your body for a good night’s sleep. 

Achieve Your Best Sleep Yet with Stay Asleep

Stay Asleep is designed for people who have a tough time sleeping through the night, whether that’s from frequent tossing and turning or regular 2 a.m. wakeups. 

Sensing when your body starts to stir, Apollo is already working in the background to deliver a personalized vibration pattern to help you settle back into sleep, making it more likely to sleep through the night. 

Apollo doesn’t ask your body to learn something new. It helps support the states your nervous system already knows how to find. And now, with our breakthrough technology powered by SmartVibes AI, Apollo works with your body’s natural rhythm to gain more minutes of sleep each night.

It’s important to remember that good sleep isn’t a luxury; it’s a biological need for your body to function at its best, both mentally and physically. And Apollo can help you finally achieve the better sleep you deserve.
