About the company:

Cradlewise is a baby tech startup based out of San Francisco, Bangalore and Pune.

We build smart baby products.

Our first product is a smart crib for babies from 0 to 24 months of age.

Cradlewise smart crib comes with an integrated baby monitor that senses early signs of wakeup, learns from the baby’s sleep patterns and starts rocking along with music to soothe the baby back to sleep - just like a mom!

We are all about sensing, learning and impacting the outcome for the baby and parents.
