The problem

Up to 90%[2] of people use their inhaler wrong. Almost no one checks.

A dose taken wrong delivers less medicine to the lungs. Most patients get their technique checked once in a clinic, if ever, and never again.

The research

Only about 1 in 3 people with asthma or COPD have fully correct inhaler technique.

Researchers have documented this for decades. A review of 144 studies found no significant improvement over time.[1]

Read the research

Fully correct technique: 31 of every 100
Acceptable or poor technique: the rest

Pooled results from studies of 54,354 people with asthma or COPD, observed 1975–2014.[1]

How it works

Simple on purpose.

1

Add the sleeve

Attach the lightweight AeroSleeve to your inhaler. It’s a passive accessory with nothing to turn on.

2

Use your inhaler as usual

Keep your routine and follow your care team’s instructions. Your phone listens nearby.

3

Get friendly tips

The app turns what it hears into clear, encouraging suggestions to try next time.

  • Patient-centered design
  • Accessibility and affordability
  • Evidence-based engineering
  • Simplicity and usability
  • Transparency and trust
  • Continuous improvement

AeroSleeve is in development. We’ll share what we learn as we go.

Early access

Be first in line.

Join the waitlist for updates as AeroSleeve takes shape. Families, clinicians, researchers, and partners are all welcome.

One plastic part. Your phone does the rest.

The sleeve is a single part with no electronics, and the app runs on a phone the patient already owns.

Fits the inhaler you use
Clamps to the outside of the inhaler body. Nothing changes about the medicine or how it's taken.
Checks how, not just when
Designed to flag common technique mistakes and explain the fix, instead of only logging that a dose happened.
Nothing to charge
No battery, no Bluetooth pairing, no second device. If the phone is nearby, it works.

How it compares

Other approaches count puffs, coach in the moment, or live in the clinic. AeroSleeve is built to do all three jobs without the cost of electronics.

AeroSleeve is in development. Categories describe typical products in each class; features vary by model. AeroSleeve is a coaching and wellness tool, not a diagnostic device.

  • Cheap to make

    One part, no assembly, no electronics. Built to be molded at volume.

Overview

This policy covers the AeroSleeve marketing website only: the pages you're on now. It does not cover the AeroSleeve mobile coaching app, which is pre-release and will have its own privacy policy before launch, including how it handles data collected during inhaler use.

Don't send health information here

This website does not collect patient health information or app data, and it isn't connected to the AeroSleeve app. Please don't submit patient information, or medical information through the demo form or by email.

Information we collect

When you submit the "Request a demo" form, we collect your name, email address, organization, and whatever you write in the message field. If you join the waitlist (a Google Form linked from this site), we collect your email address, your consent to receive updates, your role, and optionally your name and any comments. We don't require an account and don't collect payment information anywhere on this site.

How we use it

Only to respond to your demo request and follow up about a potential pilot, partnership, or investment, and to email waitlist members about AeroSleeve updates. You can unsubscribe at any time. We don't sell or rent your information, and we don't share it with anyone for advertising or marketing.

Service providers

A few companies process information on our behalf so the site and form work. Cloudflare hosts this site and runs the form's backend. Resend delivers form submissions to us as email. Google Forms collects waitlist sign-ups and stores them in Google Sheets. Cloudflare also routes email sent to our domain, and our email provider stores the messages we receive. These providers handle the data only to provide their service to us.

Cookies & logs

This site doesn't set marketing, analytics, or tracking cookies. It remembers your light or dark theme choice in your browser's local storage, which never leaves your device. Cloudflare may log technical data such as IP address, browser type, and request times for security and reliability.

Data retention

We keep demo-request messages only as long as we need them to respond and, if a relationship develops, to manage it. You can ask us to delete your information at any time.

Your rights

You can ask what information we hold about you, or ask us to correct or delete it, by emailing the address below. Which rights apply depends on where you live. We'll respond within a reasonable time.

Who this site is for

This site is meant for clinicians, health-system staff, program reviewers, investors, and adults who use inhalers or care for someone who does. It isn't directed at children, and we don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.
