About Us

It all started with a blanket.

Not a metaphor. A literal blanket.

Back in 2007, our founder Luke was fresh out of boarding school, where the halls were cold, the dorms were colder and affection was something you scheduled with your advisor. Somewhere between being told to tuck in his shirt and surviving on lukewarm shepherd’s pie, Luke realized what the world truly needed: blankets. Not just any blankets - the kind that say, “Yes, your boss just emailed you 'per my last email'… but you’re safe now.”

Armed with this mission (and the fleece prototype he hand-sewed during detention), Luke launched Kwaint - a company dedicated to comfort, warmth and a strategic blend of snark and sincerity.

Then We Got Funded

Eventually, someone asked, “But what if these blankets were… tech-enabled?”

Boom. Series A.

We added a Bluetooth tag to the hem, called it connected warmth, changed the name from Kwaint to KwaintTech and got featured in TechStyle Daily (FTC disclosure that we paid $7,995 for the feature and a framed plaque). Luke cried (well, he pretended to wipe a tear). Our intern accidentally shipped 300 blankets to a single guy in Toledo. It was a magical time.

Then we told investors we were an enterprise platform.

Series B.

Then we said the blankets had AI.

Series C.

And a 49x valuation overnight.
(Do our blankets do anything new? No. But they think about doing it faster.)

We changed our product names to reflect this evolution. From Blankets to BlanketOS to NeuraBlanketAI - wow. Still gives Luke the chills.

Why We Do It

Because we believe in the power of warmth. And also the power of buzzwords.
Because no one should have to freeze in a dorm room (or office cube) wondering why their pillow smells like radiator fluid.
Because comfort is universal. And because investors love hockey-stick graphs.

Luke's Blanket Memories

• Boarding School
  Luke once wore two blankets as a cape to breakfast and declared himself the Emperor of Cozy. He was immediately written up and sentenced to two hours of “reflective silence” in a freezing hallway. That was the moment he knew the world needed more accessible comfort. And possibly revenge.

• Harvard
  During a late-night strategy seminar, Luke’s TA told him he couldn’t bring a blanket to class. So he wore it as a “study robe” instead. When asked to define "disruption," Luke simply stood up, flung the robe dramatically over one shoulder, and whispered, "This." He got a B-minus and three LinkedIn connection requests.

• On the Golf Course
  At a charity golf tournament, Luke insisted on playing the back nine with a cashmere throw tucked into his belt “for swing aerodynamics.” He shot an 86, lost his chances of going pro, and started selling performance blankets the next day. 

• On the Private Jet
  Flying home from a silent meditation retreat (which he mostly did for the Wi-Fi break and get asked to leave early for whispering "Can we talk now?"), Luke wrapped himself in a weighted blanket and whispered, “I see the future.” His assistant assumed he meant spiritually. He meant Series C funding. Within 24 hours, the blanket had a brand name, a waitlist and the new - very expensive-sounding - name.

Today, we’re proud to be an AI-enabled, blanket-adjacent experience optimization collective.

Tomorrow, who knows? Maybe space-enabled blankets. Just don't call us a "wet blanket" (because water short-circuits our proprietary warmth-distribution nanogrid and voids the warranty).

Either way: join us. It’s warm here.
