Hey Product Hunt!
Thanks to @matteogamba for hunting us.
After months of development, we are excited to share our progress with the Product Hunt community!
Let me tell you what sleepagotchi is about:
Sleepagotchi is an app that rewards users for keeping a consistent sleep schedule with free NFTs and crypto tokens called SHEEP. Users get 1 Free NFT every morning, and 2 Free NFTs if they slept well.
In Sleepagotchi, users enter their target bedtime and wake-up time. Users then get different levels of rewards depending on how close their actual bedtime and wake-up times were to their target. Sleep duration and consistency are also rewarded.
In Sleepagotchi, every user creates their virtual bedroom called MetaRoom in the app with a bed, carpet, wallpaper, and other furniture. Each item, including the character, in the MetaRoom, is an NFT and can be traded with other users. All NFT items have different characteristics and Power levels. More rare and powerful NFTs reward users with more SHEEP tokens.
The sleep is tracked through integration with iOS Apple Health. Sleepagotchi imports sleep data from the user's iOS device and bases rewards on it. Rewards can be earned by users who wear wearable devices to track sleep like Apple Watch, WHOOP, Fitbit, Oura ring, or any other device. Users without a wearable device can also receive rewards if they have "Sleep" mode enabled on their iOS device but receive a slightly smaller reward. An Android version is also planned.
Sleepagotchi is an app inspired by collectible card games like Magic the Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Pokemon, Web2 incremental ("idle") games like Cookie Clicker, and Web3 games like Splinterlands. At its heart, Sleepagotchi is a collectible card game with idle mechanics that gamify a healthy sleeping habit. It is a play&own Web3 game rather than a pure play2earn game.
Sleepagtochi wants to break away from the x-to-earn model as earning a return on investment should not be the core value of a Web3 App. Instead, Sleepagotchi is a sleep-and-collect app that promotes healthy sleeping habits and allows players to express their creativity in their individual MetaRooms.
Currently we have launched an alpha test. Join our discord if you’re interested in participating in the alpha!

Sleepagotchi I enjoy every day.
Everyday I greet the morning like it's Christmas 😊.
I know it's a lot of work to adjust the app, but I'm rooting for you.

As a lucky tester I really love this game! It's lovely and the design is super cute. The most important thing is it helps me to stick with my sleeping schedule now because I really look forward to opening the sleepboxes the next day! Great project! Gotchi check it out!
@to_fu_dreamer great to hear that you can use the app to stick to your schedule. It has been helping me too - especially for weekend sleep. I am now much more conscious of when I go to bed on Friday and Saturdays. In general, for young people in particular, weekends can really mess up a sleep schedule :)
Hey, Anton here, thanks to @silver86 for the hunt! Just a few points from me to what Alex has already mentioned:
We believe that Web3 mechanics is a new powerful tool for gamification, and we were exploring different ideas on how to apply Web3 rewards to healthy and productive habits. The project started as a workshop project at Harvard, where I am currently doing my MBA.
We think of Sleepagotchi, not as a "stepn for sleep", but more of a "Duolingo for sleep wellness". Duolingo's mission is to bring free education to the world, and similarly, we want to bring free access to wellness tools at scale using Web3 tech. Duolingo does not have any content behind a paywall because of its mission, which is why our app is focused on free rewards. We do not have an onboarding cost like many other Web3 games have. Disclaimer: I work as a Product Manager at Duolingo in the Growth & Retention team (gamification features).
Sleepagotchi comes around as we see a cultural shift in people's attitudes towards the importance of sleep. Just yesterday, the FT published an article (https://www.ft.com/content/99946...) about growing awareness of the importance of sleep after the pandemic disrupted working lives and rest patterns. We are excited to work on this problem, as we experience it a lot.

Wow! Such a stunning design! Appreciate your effort creating super detailed video.
Looking forward to joining an app.
Congrats to the Sleepagotchi team on the successful launch of Sleepagotchi! The hard work is paying off, and users including myself are becoming more conscious of their sleeping habits. The team places an emphasis on promoting consistent and healthy sleep schedules through an engaging application.
Keep up the great work!
@andersenauditor We are really focusing on improving the sleep habits of our users by incentivizing them to sleep better by providing digital assets for good sleep!
Our Alpha Testers tell us that their sleep improves while using the app!
@andersenauditor, thank you! We try to make our product features and game balance features based on actual science - for example, we do not allow users to change their target sleep schedules daily and still earn same rewards. We want people to stick to a schedule

It’s first sleep to earn NFT project. You definitely should participate! I’m trying to get an alpha role tester right now!
I picked up three points.
The best part is probably the design that makes me want to touch it all the time. I think this is a feature that other apps don't have.
Secondly, the idea of rewards is based on scientific considerations. It is very convincing and satisfying.
Lastly, it is fair. Everyone sleeps, so everyone has the opportunity to earn rewards.
And
Thanks to the app, I now feel like I need to sleep regularly.
I look forward to getting up every day.
Thank you!!
@takeshing thank you for the review of the app!
We are happy to have such awesome community members as you!
That helps us to create a better sleeping experience and to help people to stick to a consistent sleep schedule!
@takeshing, thank you! The design was one of the trickiest problems for us to solve - we probably experimented with around 50 different 2D and 3D styles before settling up on the current choice.

I was attracted by the novelty of earning money just by sleeping and joined the program.
As a result of participating as a tester
I experienced the value of "Sleepagotchi" that goes beyond just making money.
My awareness of sleep has increased and I have become more attentive to my sleeping environment.
I even started doing some stretching before bed!
I'm glad I found a good project. I'll keep supporting you.
From suta#1155
@suta_ The main goal of Sleepagotchi is to make the sleeping routines healthier for the end users!
Really glad to see that you became more aware of your sleep!
Thank you for the feedback!
