We are thrilled to announce that Owaves brought home the Bronze (Third Place) at the AIMed Shark Tank pitch competition last month!

This achievement at the AIMed 2025 Global Summit is a tremendous honor for our team. Standing out among a competitive field of health AI innovators, our founder, Dr. Royan Kamyar, took the stage to showcase the Owaves app to an expert panel of judges and a room full of industry leaders.

The energy was palpable. As Dr. Kamyar noted after the event:

“We felt the audience respond to a new vision of time—one centered around health and well-being. Cheers to bringing circadian lifestyles to college students, and those who need it most.”

A New Vision of Time: BodyClock AI™

During the pitch, we challenged the AIMed community with some bold questions:

  • What if your calendar could help you lose 10 pounds?
  • What if a simple daily schedule could help prevent depression in your teenager?
  • What if it could add 10 years to your parents’ healthspan?

These questions lie at the heart of our mission. Recently introducing BodyClock AI™, our platform uses artificial intelligence and circadian science to align daily routines with the body’s natural clock. We are transforming time management into a form of preventative medicine.

BodyClock AI acts as a personalized “circadian coach.” It offers tailored Dynamic Windows for key activities, updated daily based on your unique data:

  • Deep Sleep: Identifies the optimal time to wind down to maximize restorative rest.
  • Deep Work: Discovers peak focus windows for productivity and study.
  • Peak Fitness: Pinpoints the best times to exercise for performance and endurance.
  • Eating Windows: Provides guidance on meal timing to support metabolism and stable energy.

By structuring the day around these evidence-based windows, healthy habits become intuitive. Our users—from busy college students to working professionals—report sharper focus, better moods, and improved overall balance.

Gratitude to the AIMed Community

This win is a team victory, and we owe a debt of gratitude to the community that made it possible.

We also want to acknowledge the sponsors and partners who made this event possible, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), AdventHealth, the National Science Foundation (NSF), University of Central Florida, and many others supporting innovation in health AI.

A special shout-out to Christina Farr, Zoe Lammer, and Second Opinion Media for helping us tell our story, and to our teammate Gayle Valensky, MPH, for cheering us on and forging connections with inspiring leaders like Sofía Gaxiola, Annika Lucas, Harry P. Pappas, Rosa Hart, and many more.

Onward

Bringing home the bronze is more than just a trophy; it is a validation of our mission. The momentum is on our side, and we are already gearing up to make BodyClock AI even smarter and more impactful.

To all our entire community of supporters: Thank you for believing in us. Together, let’s continue to revolutionize time and empower healthier, happier days for generations to come.
