Ultrahuman is taking another big swing at sleep tech, and this time it’s going well beyond simple noise alerts.
The company has pushed a major upgrade to Ultrahuman Home, turning it into one of the most advanced ambient sleep-tracking devices you can buy, and it doesn’t even need to be worn.
The update, rolling out globally today, adds AI-powered snore and cough analysis, giving users a clearer picture of what’s actually disrupting their sleep. And because the device monitors anyone in the room, it works for couples, kids, or shared households without multiple wearables.
The best part? Existing users get everything free via a software update. New customers can pick up Ultrahuman Home for a discounted £322.74/$399, with a 15% Black Friday discount running until December 1.
Instead of just telling you how long you slept, Ultrahuman Home now monitors the entire space you sleep in. The device builds an Ambient Sleep Score using air quality, CO₂ levels, temperature, humidity, noise spikes, and even light exposure — all factors proven to nudge your body out of deep or REM sleep.
The science behind it is solid: blue-rich light late at night suppresses melatonin and shifts your internal clock, while sudden or low-frequency noise can trigger stress responses that quietly break up deep and REM sleep.
Elevated CO₂ levels make your breathing work harder, leading to lighter and more fragmented rest, and even small temperature or humidity shifts can leave you tossing and turning as your body struggles to stay comfortable. It’s essentially a lab-grade environmental report, but for your bedroom.
The big upgrade, though, is how Ultrahuman Home listens. Dual microphones and AI trained on 500+ audio signatures can now distinguish between coughing, snoring, breathing irregularities, baby crying, cars outside, and tag each disruption inside the app.
From this, the device generates a Respiratory Health Score, complete with timestamps and optional audio clips. Ultrahuman says this system is designed to help catch early signs of conditions like obstructive sleep apnea — a disorder where over a billion adults are at risk, often without knowing it.
And importantly, users can kill the mics at any time with a physical switch, and the device supports HIPAA and GDPR compliance for data handling.
In December, Ultrahuman Home will step deeper into automation. The device will be able to adjust lights, thermostats, purifiers, and HVAC systems automatically. Matter support is on the roadmap, which should make cross-platform setups far smoother.
If you’re wearing the Ultrahuman Ring AIR, the two devices work together using a feature called UltraSync. This lets you see how internal signals like heart rate and sleep stages pair with external triggers like CO₂ spikes or blue-light exposure. More metrics, including CO₂-linked autonomic stress, are coming in December.
Ultrahuman clearly wants to corner both the wearable and ambient health space, and this update pushes Ultrahuman Home into territory most sleep trackers don’t even attempt. And if the automation features land smoothly next month, it could become one of the smartest sleep ecosystems around.
