AI Scent Therapist Startup Raises $6.5 Million to Sniff Your Sleep Biometrics

A sleep tech startup called Kimba just raised $6.5 million to build an AI-powered nightstand device that monitors your biometrics and pumps custom perfume at you when you toss and turn. Meanwhile, the surf is absolutely firing in Todos Santos, where we achieve flawless deep sleep by passing out on a beach towel under the influence of salt air and three Pacificos, completely free of VC funding. If Silicon Valley tech bros need a computerized aromatherapy machine to survive their self-induced anxiety, they should probably just come down to Baja and touch some actual sand.
