A sleepless world. A category asleep at the wheel.
High demand, repeated need, and weak category branding create room for a dominant new leader — built around ritual, convenience, and cultural identity.
Clinical, forgettable, occasional. Built for rescue — not ritual.
Comforting but weak on efficacy and modern relevance.
Drive trial but feel candy-like. Most lack a strong adult identity.
GONZO enters with a different premise: sleep is not soft wellness. It is shutdown, recovery, rebirth.
Not a sleepy supplement.
