AirPod Sleeping Pod is a private “capsule style” unit designed to be installed in public spaces such are: airports, hotels, railway & bus stations, shopping centers and offices. It is an ideal solution for people who are seeking an area to relax, sleep, work, or have fun in privacy, while still in a public place.
AirPod offers the opportunity to participate in an ICO, backed by a real business. The APOD utility token will be used in AirPods initially set to be distributed in airports worldwide. Over time AirPod distribution will expand to any public places where people are looking to take a rest.
AirPod Sleeping Pod (hereinafter referred to as AirPod) is a private “capsule style” unit designed to be installed in public spaces such are: airports, hotels, railway & bus stations, shopping centers and offices. It is an ideal solution for people who are seeking an area to relax, sleep, work, or have fun in privacy, while still in a public place.
AirPod is full of cutting-edge technologies that enable users to undertake tasks in total privacy and comfort while still remaining in the heart of a public or commercial space. AirPod will encompass features to enhance the user experience such as Wi-Fi, touch screen monitor, air condition, sound reduction technology, privacy blinds in smart glass, mood lighting and anti-stress program.
With AirPod sleek, ergonomic design, it could be slot into a multitude of surroundings. However, we have made the decision to first introduce AirPod into major airport hubs. After months of strategic analysis, the AirPod team concluded that airports are the ideal first setting to introduce AirPods. To help pioneer this introduction, we are developing a partnership with one of the largest companies in the business to help us facilitate the distribution within the largest international airports around the globe.

I liked the project. This is really something worthwhile in the market and is real benefit to people.
It's necessary only to strengthen the team by strong advisors.

Market is too small, and separately standing air-pods has already tested it with a moderate to a negative feedback. I tried a couple on my own, and they are just claustrophobic and not satisfying. What I (and the most ordinary people) really want, if there is a long layover or some delay in the airport, is a shower, a body refreshment and some clean clothes. If it is an overnight, I want a proper hotel room, not a can where you can't stand up and just walk talking. And it would cost ~50$ per night. There is less need in privacy for working or resting, rather than for washing, changing clothes or a proper sleeping.

With Wi-Fi, touch screen monitor, air condition, sound reduction technology, privacy blinds in smart glass, mood lighting and anti-stress program, capsule will be very big in public space and it is hard to accommodate. which makes the facility costly.
Edited: Team partnership with airline service industry and fine tuned project.

I think they will have a hard time doing business under the name Air Pod since there is a trademarked Apple product called AirPods. Their main competition Gosleep Oy makes 500k EUR revenue and 25K EUR profit after 5+ years in business, therefore I don't see this as a viable investment, there's just not enough demand for this product. Gosleep sleeping pods often cost much more than airport lounges. What also bothers me is that the only positive comment under their ICO announcement in a private FB group was posted from a fake profile and they have deleted the post shortly after. There are some statements in the whitepaper that I find hard to believe, such as the claim that you will be able to spend APOD tokens directly from an ERC20-supported card, while they don't state which card provider will be used. This is a bold statement since such arrangements with debit card providers are difficult. Their other business partners are not disclosed either.
Agree

The answer to Mr.Pusic: (by the AIRPOD CEO Gregor Mrgole)
AirPod is a REGISTERED BRAND. Not pending, not in process or waiting to be registered - it is a REGISTERED brand: http://trademark.markify.com/trademarks/ctm/airpod+relax.+work.+enjoy./016238149/?lang=en .
The mentioned company does not reflect the success of our company neither does the size of the market. It is one of the companies that are present on the market. Detailed market size can be checked here:
Cost comparison: (on a basis of 3 hours waiting time)
AIRPOD Rent: 15€ / hour or $18; TOTAL COST 45€
Not renting anything – paying for WIFI, drinking coffee and water; TOTAL COST: 16 – 18€
Lounge programs (Example 1): Annual fee €99 Per visit fee €24; TOTAL COST: 123€
Lounge programs (Example 2): Entry fee: 40 GBP (max. 3 hours) POD bedroom: 20 GBP / hour; TOTAL COST: 113€.
In mentioned private FB group our announcement was removed due to clear indication that there was an attempt to discredit our project by few individuals and we suspect that positive comment from fake profile was part of that action. We are inviting you to contact us or visit our offices sign an NDA and we are more than happy to prove that mentioned fake profile was not ours.
Our business ethics is one of our top priorities and by disclosing the name of the company or an agreement that is still in the process would certainly give an impression of a rookie in business. We are trying to keep the professional level at all time. Concerning the bold statement: as far as I know, you are an advisor at such ICO who can provide mentioned services.
ALL business partners are described and disclosed in AirPod whitepaper except distribution partner with who we had agreed not to disclose until the end of ICO due to legal reasons. We are inviting you to contact us or visit our offices sign an NDA and we are more than happy to share this information with you.
