Cumulative stimulation
18,000 minutesmins
300 hours of stimulation. As at September 2026.
Our story.
A wearable that could not only read your data but also improve it seemed almost impossible. But it very quickly became a reality.
- 2025
An idea
Just over a year ago, nomad was just an idea. Oliver Case started working on it in his bedroom.
- 2025
The algorithm
We developed the first version of the algorithm behind it, with another 10 hours of development stimulation.
- 2025
First prototype
Soon after, we built our first prototype.
- 2025
Lab tests
The first 100 hours of stimulation, logged in lab testing.
- 2025
Patent filed
We filed a patent.
- 2026
First funding
We raised our first funding.
- 2026
A growing team
We grew the team to turn what was initially a rough prototype into an actual wearable device.
- 2026
Four universities
Developed with, and accountable to, UCL, Royal Holloway, Queen Mary University of London and UC San Diego.
- 2026
First functional devices
Now, a year later, we have our first functional devices.
