Wesper named to TIME's list of the Best Inventions of 2026 as A Special Mention. 16/10/2026 TIME recognition highlights Wesper's work to make sleep testing accessible New York City, United States, October 15, 2026 - Wesper, a leader in advanced home sleep apnea testing (HSAT), has been recognized as a 2026 TIME Best Inventions Special Mention, placing the company among a select group of innovators recognized by TIME for developing products and technologies that are helping shape the future. To compile this year's list, TIME solicited nominations from TIME editors and correspondents around the world, and through an online application process, paying special attention to growing fields - such as health care and AI. TIME then evaluated each contender on a number of key factors, including originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact. For Wesper, the recognition highlights the growing importance of rethinking how sleep disorders are studied. Rather than relying solely on traditional sleep testing methods that can be difficult to use and limited to a single night, Wesper's wearable technology lets patients collect sleep data at home across multiple nights. "This recognition from TIME is meaningful because it validates the need to rethink how we approach sleep health," said Dr. Amir Reuveny, CEO and founder of Wesper. "Millions of people struggle with undiagnosed or undertreated sleep disorders, yet access to reliable, clinical-grade sleep testing remains a significant barrier. We built Wesper around the idea that even the most rigorous sleep testing should fit into people's lives, not disrupt them." Wesper's wireless wearable technology is designed to capture key sleep and breathing data without a traditional nasal cannula, helping patients test in their own beds across multiple nights. The approach is intended to give clinicians a more rounded, representative picture of a patient's sleep while making the testing experience more comfortable and accessible. The TIME Best Inventions Special Mention recognizes Wesper at a moment when sleep health is receiving increased attention as a critical component of overall health. The recognition reflects the larger shift toward technology that can move healthcare past traditional clinical settings and give people more convenient ways to understand their health. For Wesper, the recognition also reinforces its broader mission to modernize sleep testing and help more people identify conditions such as sleep apnea that can otherwise go undiagnosed.

Wesper launches Wesper Lite, diagnostic PPG device for general sleep testing. June 11, 2026 Wesper, a leader in advanced home sleep apnea testing (HSAT), today unveiled its multi-tier sleep diagnostic ecosystem at SLEEP 2026, the annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies. The ecosystem brings two purpose-built diagnostic pathways, Wesper Lab and Wesper Lite, onto one platform, one patient record, and one interpretation pipeline, so physicians can match the right test to the right patient without changing how their clinic works. Wesper will demo both products at booth #1007 at SLEEP 2026. As demand for sleep testing continues to outpace capacity, the Wesper ecosystem gives clinicians flexibility across the full range of patients they see. Wesper Lab is the company's high-fidelity, respiratory-based test, built for comprehensive analysis and ongoing follow-up with cannula-free airflow, positional analysis, and central apnea detection. Wesper Lite is an optical sensor-based (PPG) test designed for general diagnostics, high-volume screening, and remote patient monitoring. Both run on Wesper's robust signal analysis capabilities, and a Lite study can escalate to a Lab study without re-onboarding the patient. "Sleep apnea is a complicated condition that presents uniquely in every patient, but existing sleep testing has often been approached as one-size-fits-all," said Dr. Amir Reuveny, CEO and Founder of Wesper. "With Wesper Lab and Wesper Lite on one ecosystem, physicians can choose the right test for each patient and follow that patient through diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing monitoring on a single record. That is what personalized sleep testing - and ultimately personalized care, looks like." Wesper is also presenting three research posters at SLEEP 2026, including new data on provider-tuned autoscoring, AI-driven central sleep apnea detection validated against polysomnography, and an underrecognized positional OSA phenotype in obese patients. The studies reinforce the clinical depth behind the ecosystem and the value of direct, multi-night respiratory data.
