About Us

How it all began…

We’re Alex and Yoandy, longtime friends and the founders of Wake Band.

The idea for Wake Band came from our very different struggles with waking up.

Alex was working early mornings in the city while living in a small apartment building. After finally falling asleep late at night, he’d be jolted awake by loud alarms—his and everyone else’s. It didn’t just ruin his sleep, it left him stressed before the day even started.

Meanwhile, Yoandy had the opposite problem. He was a deep sleeper. Traditional alarms were easy to ignore, snoozed without thinking, or slept straight through. Mornings became rushed, frustrating, and unreliable.

During a late-night call, we compared notes and realized something important: waking up shouldn’t feel chaotic, stressful, or disruptive.

So when we finally met back home, we grabbed notebooks, sketched ideas, and started experimenting. What if there was a way to wake up silently, reliably, and naturally—without blaring sounds, without snooze battles, and without disturbing anyone else?

After months of prototyping, testing, and refining, we created our first solution: a quiet, wearable alarm designed to wake you—and only you—every time.

In early 2024, we launched the very first Wake Band.

But that was only the beginning. With every customer story, message, and real-world use case, we’ve continued improving Wake Band—making it more comfortable, more dependable, and better suited to real life.

For us, this isn’t just a product. It’s a commitment to better mornings, calmer nights, and waking up on your own terms.
