Summary
Kevin Houston is head of execution at REM-Fit, a company that was founded about five years ago with the goal of harnessing the power of technology to improve one of the most important aspects of life: sleep. At REM-Fit, sleep is considered the most important factor in recovery, whether you're recovering from a stressful day at work or an intense workout. The team at REM-Fit is passionate about sleep, and for the past several years they've poured that passion into the design, development, and continual improvement of a product which actively participates in your sleep: the ZEEQ smart pillow.
It's Alexa-integrated and able to connect with other smart devices in your home, which means it can get your coffee brewing before you wake up, draw the shades back when you need to get up, change the humidity in your environment based on your sleep patterns, and heat your bathroom floor just a few minutes before you need to get ready for your day. The pillow is wrapped in a unique textile that's antimicrobial-resistant, moisture-wicking, and cool to the touch. Perhaps the most popular feature is its ability to stream music, white noise, guided meditations, or whatever else it is you might want to hear in your own private ecosystem. With a compartment located on both the top and bottom of the pillow, you decide how much filling you want and where you want it—a feature which truly makes it infinitely adjustable.
The team at REM-Fit takes a personal approach with every customer and wants to hear feedback, whether it's good or bad. They are constantly looking for ways to improve their product and working on the release of a new mattress line in the fall of 2019.
