The World’s First Smart Scented Wax Warmer. Smart home connectivity | No-spill Wax Removal

Story

Introducing Relm – A better, smarter, healthier way to scent your home using all-natural soy wax.

Unlike most home scenting products today, Relm is designed to seamlessly blend into your daily life thanks to innovative features like smart home connectivity, custom scheduling, no-spill wax removal, aroma profiles, and personalized mood lighting.

From a scented sunrise alarm, to a living room sensory side-kick, Relm aims to redefine home scenting by transforming the wax warmer from a mantle relic, into a smart home essential. 

With its seamless integration into your smart home ecosystem, Relm offers a new level of convenience and control over your home scenting experience.

Whether adjusting temperature settings, dimming lights, creating custom schedules, or issuing voice commands through popular platforms like Alexa, Google Home, and Apple Home, Relm enables you to curate your surroundings precisely and easily.  

Leave behind the concerns associated with traditional candles. Relm offers a practical solution with its intelligent scented wax warmer, with safety features designed to enhance your peace of mind —  location-based toggles, smart timers, and remote control capabilities via the Relm app. 

These advanced functionalities are designed to ensure you can enjoy soothing scents without lingering worries. With Relm, you can say goodbye to the familiar question, “Did I blow out the candle?” Your sense of security is our primary concern.

No more hassles of scraping, freezing, or dealing with hot wax spills – Relm introduces a simple 3-step wax removal system: Twist. Remove. Replace.

Relm’s innovative no-spill wax removal feature makes switching scents a breeze. We believe convenience should never compromise cleanliness. Changing your wax melts is as easy as maintaining a tidy space.

Relm introduces an innovative feature called Wax Feathering, meticulously crafted to enhance your aromatherapy experience by prolonging your wax life and saving you money. This sustainable solution gradually cools and warms your wax, extending its longevity and ensuring an even and consistent distribution of fragrance. It’s all about making the most of your favorite scents without needing constant replacements — saving you time, energy, and money. 

No more short-lived scents or wasteful wax disposal – with Relm’s Wax Feathering feature, you can savor your aroma experiences for longer than ever! 

Your Relm empowers you to craft an aromatherapy experience that perfectly aligns with your preferences and lifestyle. Take control with precision by scheduling your sessions down to the minute. Alternatively, choose a more hands-off approach through location-based automation, allowing Relm to activate when you’re home and deactivate when you’re away.

For added convenience,  Relm’s smart scheduling feature also enables you to automate various aspects of your aromatherapy routine. This includes preheating, leveraging location-based triggers, adjusting ambient lighting to your liking, and enabling wax feathering. This is achieved effortlessly so that you can enjoy a tranquil aromatherapy experience without manual intervention.

Relm is not just about scents; it’s about crafting a captivating ambiance and atmosphere in your place. Our personalized mood lighting feature serves as the canvas, allowing you to paint your surroundings with hues that gracefully complement your chosen aroma.

This thoughtful addition enriches your aromatherapy journey by engaging another sense—sight. It’s an opportunity to elevate your experience, immersing yourself in a captivating fusion of scent and sensory delight. With every inhalation of fragrance and the gentle play of colors, you’ll find yourself transported to a tranquil oasis, where your space is bathed in a one-of-a-kind ambiance as unique as yours.

We all have that one scent that takes us down the memory lane. Now, you can light up those memories. In the Reim app, you’ll find the feature to meticulously craft aroma profiles for each scent you use.

This feature enhances sensory experiences by integrating music selections, color palettes, and personal photographs. These aroma profiles complete and enrich your memories associated with each scent, creating a more holistic and personalized aromatherapy experience.

Relm is more than just a wax warmer—a celebration of form and function, elegantly designed to complement your décor while enhancing your aromatherapy experience. Crafted with premium materials, Relm brings minimalistic beauty to any space. Whether you’re having a tranquil evening alone or hosting a movie night with friends, create the perfect ambiance with Relm’s adjustable mood lights.

This is not just about scent but about cultivating an atmosphere that reflects your style and mood. With Relm, you don’t just enjoy a fragrance; you get to craft your aroma ambiance.

With Relm, your choices are unlimited. Choose from our diverse collection of high quality soy wax melts sourced from around the world and crafted to perfection. From soothing lavender fields to invigorating citrus groves, embark on a new scent journey every day. You can even mix and match to create your unique aromatic blend.

Our initial selection of wax scent options we offer are Lavender, Eucalyptus, Citrus Blend, Sandalwood, and Jasmine. But that’s just the beginning — we’ll add even more scents, inspired by the requests from our community.

The Relm app puts the power of customization right in your hands. With a user-friendly layout and intuitive controls, managing your aroma experience has never been easier. Set your scent schedule, adjust lighting, change the intensity of the wax warmer, or even switch between scents, all from your smartphone. The app also provides real-time updates about the wax warmer’s status and notifies you when it’s time to change the wax.

Out of wax? No problem, with just a click of a button you’ll be able to order your favorite wax delivered to your door. With the Relm app, a tailored aromatherapy experience is just a click away.

Aromatherapy is more than just a sensory delight; it’s an age-old practice with numerous health benefits. The scents from essential oils can uplift your mood, reduce stress, and even improve sleep. From a mental standpoint, aromatherapy can enhance focus and cognitive function. There’s also a physical aspect to it – certain scents can alleviate headaches, boost immunity, and even act as a sleep aid. With Relm, you get all these benefits in a sleek, customizable format, bringing the power of aromatherapy into your daily life.

Here are some of the therapeutic advantages you can experience through the power of aromatherapy:

As you embark on your journey to relaxation and healing, we invite you to join us in nurturing nature and embracing a more sustainable future. At Relm, we’ve carefully curated an eco-friendly aromatherapy experience that benefits your well-being and treads lightly on our planet. You’ll find comfort in knowing that our wax melts are crafted from soy and organic waxes sourced from sustainable resources. These natural materials offer you a clean and eco-friendly way to enjoy your favorite scents and promote responsible sourcing practices.

But our commitment to sustainability goes beyond materials. We’ve integrated innovative features like Wax Feathering, which gently cools and warms the wax to extend its life, reducing the need for constant replacements. This saves you time and money and aligns with our collective responsibility to reduce waste and protect the environment. Our smart scheduling and temperature controls further enhance the eco-friendliness of Relm, allowing you to minimize energy consumption. So, as you immerse yourself in the soothing embrace of aromatherapy, rest assured that you’re also contributing to a greener, more sustainable world.

In early 2020, I sat in my 900 sq. ft apartment, just outside of Seattle, where I lived with my wife, my one-year-old son, a roommate, and two dogs. It was small and cramped, but it was home. The news spouted off on the TV about some new virus making its rounds in China — probably nothing, I thought.

Fast forward 3 weeks; it turns out that the virus was something. Soon, Covid-19 had us wearing masks, avoiding public spaces, and distancing from our loved ones. Like everyone else, our home was quickly turned into an office, gym, church, school, or whatever we decided to do to pass the time — not ideal.

This “new norm” forced us to deeply re-evaluate the space we called home. As an architect and a tech junkie, I became [slightly] obsessed with smart home devices that gave the ability to easily control and change our environment: Lights with different scenes for work, play, and relaxation; Thermostats to change up the feel of the space; Noisemakers with mood lights to create the perfect ambiance, and so on. Soon, our tiny apartment had different controllable themes for everything. I stood proud, looking over my new, smart-home-enabled creation, then barked at Alexa to change the scene and plopped on the couch to watch Tiger King with my wife.

Not long into the show, I remembered we had a wax warmer in the kitchen, but seeing as I was already comfy on the sofa (and thoroughly engaged with the Tiger King drama), I opted not to turn the warmer on.

I wish to turn it on from my phone. I thought to myself. Then, I did what everyone does when they have a problem; I Googled it, hoping that I could order the solution with convenient 2-day shipping — oh, how mistaken I was.

To my surprise, “smart home wax warmer” yielded no results on Google. Amazon was the same story. Surely one of the big players in the wax warmer industry has one, right? nope. Everywhere I looked, I couldn’t find one.

Wow, thanks, Google!

Someone needs to make a smart home wax warmer. I thought to myself. A moment passed, and another thought popped into my head:

“I should make a smart home wax warmer.”

And the rest is a journey that brought us to this point.
