## Key Differentiators

- Only monitor that routes alerts to ONE parent (not both)
- Uses Apple Watch sleep stage data to wake the parent in lightest sleep
- Alerts arrive as a silent wrist vibration, long enough and strong enough to wake one person without waking the room
- The monitor itself is audio-only, with no built-in camera; video is available only by optionally linking a Ring camera you already own
- Core Dozzi monitoring has no subscription of any kind; the only recurring cost is the optional Ring camera integration at $3/month, which Ring bills directly
- On-device audio processing; the audio stream never leaves the room
- Listens and only escalates on sustained crying; sensitivity is adjustable

## Alert Routing Modes

- Alternating: Automatically hands off between caregivers after each wake-up
- Schedule: Set a shift change time and choose who starts the night
- Smart: Routes to the caregiver in the lightest sleep stage, using Apple Watch sleep data
- All Caregivers: Every paired caregiver receives every alert

## Camera Integration (Optional)

- The Dozzi hub contains no camera and captures no video
- Owners of a compatible Ring camera can link it to Dozzi
- Delivers a still snapshot from the camera on the Apple Watch when an alert arrives, and live video streaming in the Dozzi phone app
- Price: $3.00 USD per month, billed through the customer's Ring account. Core monitoring has no subscription.
- Requires a Ring account and compatible Ring camera, sold separately by Ring
- Requires an active internet connection; unlike core monitoring, camera features do not work during an internet outage
- Video is transmitted, processed, and stored by Ring under Ring's own privacy policy and terms, not Dozzi's
- Setup: confirm the camera works in the Ring app, open Settings in the Dozzi app, choose the camera integration, sign in with the Ring account and authorize access, then select the camera in the baby's room
- Dozzi has a commercial partnership with Ring and receives a share of revenue from the integration

## Platform

- iOS + Apple Watch at launch (iOS 17+, Apple Watch Series 7 or newer)
- Android + Wear OS in development
- Phone-only fallback mode available, using phone vibration alerts
