The health tracker that runs on light.

The Ray is a solar-powered fitness band that charges when you go outside. Improve your sleep, log your steps and activity, and track your heart health — lots of features in a tiny package.

At seven grams and no subscription, the Ray is what other trackers wish they could be: your effortless health companion.

One minute of sun. One day of power.

1,440 minutes in your day.Ray needs one.

Indoor light works too — it just takes longer. Full details in the specs.

One minute of sun. One day of power.

The Ray is missing a charging port, because there's nothing to plug in! A tiny solar cell under the glass keeps it running from the light you already live in. It charges the same way you tan: by going outside.

Go two months without seeing the sun, and it'll still be running when you come back.

Wake up to a morning brief, every morning

The Ray's research-grade sensors are running around the clock to measure the biosignals that a sleep lab looks for and prepares you for the day ahead. No tapping, no syncing, no thinking.

    From the founder

    “A few years ago I overheard someone on the train say they skipped their morning run because their Apple Watch was dead. That's when it clicked: these devices have gone too far. Ray is what a tracker should be: small, beautiful, self-powering, and yours forever.”
