Rodrigo
Founder & researcher · Lisbon, Portugal
Rodrigo is a software engineer based in Lisbon and the founder of Sleeptly. Before software, he served in special operations, where multi-day fatigue, shift rotations, and time-zone disruption were routine. That experience pushed him into the sleep research literature out of practical necessity — what actually helps, what doesn’t, and what the evidence says. Sleeptly is the result: a free suite of sleep tools built from peer-reviewed sources, written for people who treat sleep as a problem to solve. Rodrigo is not a medical professional. Every recommendation on this site links back to a primary source — CDC, AASM, Cochrane reviews, or peer-reviewed journals — and any reader with a clinical sleep disorder is directed to a board-certified specialist.
