Somnee Secures $10 Million in Funding to Revolutionize Sleep Technology

Somnee, a neurotechnology company developing AI-powered sleep wearables, has secured $10 million in Series A funding. The round was led by Khosla Ventures, with participation from notable investors including Marc Benioff's TIME Ventures, LEAD VC (founded by the Adidas family), the DeVos family (Orlando Magic ownership), Seaside Ventures, Nelstone Ventures, and Metalab.
