Emitby Stephen Titus, Thushaan
Emit is a productivity-focused smartwatch founded by Stephen Titus and Thushaan that displays countdowns of important tasks and goals rather than traditional time, leveraging the psychology of scarcity to change user behavior. The founders launched on Kickstarter in 2018 and exceeded their goal by 330%, raising $17,000 from 180 backers, validating strong market interest in their novel approach to time management. They grew through community building on social media and Reddit while navigating the complex challenges of hardware manufacturing and competing against both traditional watches and feature-rich smartwatches.
