History[edit]
Helix Sleep was founded by Adam Tishman, Kristian von Rickenbach, and Jerry Lin in 2015.[5] The co-founders met at the University of Pennsylvania Wharton School MBA program. They bonded over the transition of moving to a new city and the struggles of buying a new mattress. They discovered that the mattress industry was broken and they wanted to fix it.[6] On August 4, 2015, the Helix Sleep website was launched.[7] Prior to the launch, the company raised a seed round investment from angel investors.[6]
The company expanded its delivery service to reach customers in Canada in January 2016.[8]
Helix Sleep announced that it had raise Series A funding in August 2016.[9] Investors included Double J Capital, Great Oaks VC, Simon Venture Group, WIT, Jonathan Klein, and Jess Itzler.[10]
The company launched the Birch by Helix brand in May 2019.[11] The Allform brand was launched in May 2020.[12]
Products[edit]
The Helix Sleep brand gives customers a questionnaire to learn about their height and weight, how they sleep, and how firm their mattresses usually are and uses that data to match users to the perfect mattress.[13]
