ABOUT US

Bedim is a small tech startup based in Miami, Florida. We're proud members of the always-connected Millennial generation, and we're on a mission to improve the lives of the gadget-obsessed everywhere. We aim to spread awareness of the possible adverse health effects caused by our wired lifestyles, and we create products to make our technology safer to use.

As college students and Millennials, we spend so much of our time staring at screens—whether we’re reading articles or chapters from e-textbooks on our iPads, or scrolling endlessly through our Instagram feeds on our iPhones. We know what it’s like to pull an all-nighter and have to wake up for work the next morning. We also know that the Internet is distracting, and that some nights we find ourselves with an empty word document but a full shopping cart.

We came up with Bedim after we learned that using our devices late at night, whether for work or play, may be hurting us more than we thought. The mounting evidence that our electronics are negatively affecting our sleep led us to the aha moment which gave birth to the concept behind Bedim. We know that most of us just can’t shake our addiction to our digi-toys before bedtime, and no one realistically expects us to stop using them when it’s dark outside. We developed Bedim because we knew we could create a simple tool that would improve the lives of people like us: the always-connected, insomniac Millennials who all too often find themselves up to their necks in work, homework and Facebook notifications.
