Toto Sleep 

Infant sleep tracking wearable 

Client : Toto

__ The Mission

The first months with a new baby are full of questions and very little rest. 

Parents count feeds, watch eyelids, pace the floor and hope they pick the right moment. Some naps seem effortless. Others turn into long nights.

Toto wanted to soften that experience with a soft, wrist-worn device and app that could learn an individual baby's patterns, then gently suggest the natural window when that child is most likely to drift off.

Not a strict schedule imposed from a book.
But a quiet guide that learns each baby's own rhythm

__ The Insight

Infants can sleep many hours in every twenty four, but in short, irregular chunks. 

Parents are told to follow the cues, yet real life sits heavily on top of that advice.

Existing wearables were shaped around adult bodies and adult anxieties. Hard, tech-forward objects with rigid modules and small straps. For a newborn, that is the opposite of reassuring. Toto needed something that could gather reliable data while feeling more like a soft accessory than a device, one that could also survive milk, washing and the general chaos of early family life.

If technology feels clinical, families will leave it on the shelf If it feels soft and natural, it can quietly become part of the routine

__ The Filament Effect

Filament designed a device that babies barely notice and parents can trust

Housing, strap and fastenings were shaped around comfort first, moving naturally with small wrists and avoiding pressure points. Materials were chosen for skin that is both delicate and easily cleaned. We paid close attention to how the strap fastens at three in the morning, with one tired hand and low light.

Around the hardware, we helped refine packaging and narrative so the story meets parents in bedrooms and living rooms, not technical spec sheets.

Designed for milk spills, naps in car seats and 3 a.m. worries.
So the clever parts disappear behind a feeling of care

__ The Breakthrough

The result is a wearable that looks and feels like a small, friendly band rather than a medical device. 

It tracks movement and other signals, then the Toto app interprets patterns over time and suggests when to try for a nap or bedtime. Parents still make the decisions. The system simply nudges them toward moments when sleep is most likely, based on their own child, not a generic chart. 

__ The Outcome

Toto Sleep has already drawn attention, including an investment from Google 

validating the need for gentler, data-informed support in early parenthood. For families, it promises a kinder route to sleep, grounded in their own child's patterns rather than a generic chart.
