About Cradlewise

Established in 2019 by Radhika Patil and Bharath Patil, Cradlewise stands out as an AI-first consumer technology firm focusing on smart cribs designed specifically to soothe infants and enhance family sleep experiences. The company’s AI-driven cribs employ sensors to monitor various factors, including movement, sound, sleep states, and additional contextual signals.

Innovative Technology and Benefits

Cradlewise’s system leverages this data to forecast when an infant is likely to awaken and take preventative measures to keep the baby settled before full waking occurs. According to the company, its innovative technology can save parents up to two hours of effort each day. Cradlewise holds patents covering its hardware and sensor systems and notes that its models are developed using insights from over 75 million hours of sleep data.

Manufacturing Excellence in Pune

The company also manages an integrated manufacturing facility in Pune, capable of producing, testing, and packaging thousands of cribs monthly. This operational excellence affords Cradlewise enhanced control over quality, product evolution, and costs.

Smart Sleep System Features

Cradlewise’s intelligent sleep system integrates a crib, contactless monitoring, adaptive motion technology, and a connected application to identify early signs of stirring and assist infants in settling before they completely wake. This approach targets the burgeoning intersection of consumer technology, artificial intelligence, and parenting, aiming to address the challenges surrounding infant sleep and parental fatigue.
