We empower NICUs to improve preterm infant outcomes

Disrupted neonatal sleep is linked to long-term cognitive impairment. Our goal is to improve newborn developmental outcomes, early parent-child bonding, and free up nursing capacity.

For Investors & Partners Our mission

Our mission

Protecting the developing brains of the world's most vulnerable newborns — through smarter, contact-free NICU, nursery, and early days in home care.

We are building the contact-free AI camera platform that supports clinicians' awareness of infant sleep-wake state, positioning, kangaroo time tracking, and the environment, with a safe gateway for family viewing — with all processing on-premise, no cloud, and GDPR-compliant.

NICOWL's mission extends beyond parent live-streaming cameras: it is a clinical AI platform designed with and for neonatologists and nurses.

NICOWL's contact-free NICU monitoring platform supports NIDCAP/FINE compliance by 20–30% improvement in protected sleep, ~20% reduction in nursing workload, and measurable QALY gains per infant — freeing clinical capacity for the next baby in need.

Our value proposition

Here's what the professionals say

Several babies can be monitored at the same time, even in the dark. It measures light and noise levels, it would be unique.

PL neonatologist, Warsaw, 20 years of professional experience

Great idea, concept. The baby can be observed even in the dark, you don't have to peek constantly.

CZ NICU nurse, Prague, 30 years of professional experience

We constantly look at the babies, we also monitor them constantly at the nurse's desk, but we don't see what happens to them in 3 hours, unless we go there and look inside.

Neonatologist opinion summary:

"It would be very important to monitor it continuously, regardless of the time of day. In this regard, the movement parameters of the babies could be suitable prognostic factors regarding their neurological condition.

In addition to the fact that neural development is considered important, there is currently no tool for this."

Nurse opinion summary:

"It is crucial to monitor the development of the nervous system, a more accurate picture of the condition of the babies is available. However, it must be handled in its place, it cannot replace personal presence and it cannot cause a feeling of being watched."
