Pulsetto has introduced a redesigned vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) device that offers improved comfort, 20% longer battery life, and a smoother user experience. It also has new app-based features to support a growing community that is struggling with burnout.
July 4, 2025. Mental health issues are rising in the tech sector. In a 2024 DHR Global survey, 82% of white-collar workers stated that they regularly felt at least “slightly” burned out. The number was even higher among younger tech employees. 83% of Gen Z and 73% of millennials in tech experienced burnout symptoms. Women in IT are also affected, as 74% of them cited burnout, compared to 68% of men.
To address this growing issue, health tech company Pulsetto has introduced Pulsetto FIT. It is a redesigned VNS device that delivers targeted, non-invasive stress relief through the bilateral neck stimulation of the vagus nerve. The tool helps rebalance cortisol levels and supports the return to a calmer, more restorative state.
The updated device features comfort-driven changes and includes interchangeable soft padding in two sizes. The new design includes improved materials, a 20% longer battery life, and adjustable LED brightness for nighttime use.
“We see a clear trend: people are increasingly seeking non-verbal, non-pharmaceutical approaches to mental health. Many want autonomy and control, and Pulsetto delivers just that. It’s gratifying to see respected figures like Peter Diamandis, Bryan Johnson organically include us in their routines. It confirms we’re building something useful not just for stress relief, but also for long-term well-being,” said Povilas Sabaliauskas, CEO and Co-founder of Pulsetto.
Built for daily use and personalized recovery
Pulsetto FIT sessions begin with a smoother 2-second ramp-up and finish with a gentle fade-out, which eliminates jarring starts and stops. The new ARC neckband is made from medical-grade ABS plastic. It improves flexibility and reduces wear over time. Padding sizes (S and M), better fit a wider user base, particularly for women who previously found the original device too large.
Additionally, the Pulsetto app now makes interaction within the community easier. Users can share personal stories, explore curated articles, and follow product updates. The goal is to create a trusted space for people managing stress, anxiety, and burnout.
Reduces cortisol and burnout
Burnout is closely tied to chronic cortisol imbalance, which is a cycle that reinforces poor sleep, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion. A recent clinical trial with 40 participants using Pulsetto over four weeks showed:
- Cortisol levels decreased in 70.3% of users, with an average 40% drop
- Cortisone levels dropped by 51.7% on average in users who responded
- Psychological stress symptoms dropped by 55.9%, anxiety by 45.3%, and sleep disturbances by 41.0%
These results were most notable within the first two weeks of consistent use, which suggests that the results of VNS neuromodulation are fast and measurable on the body’s stress response.
Pulsetto is currently the fastest-growing electronic VNS tool in the wellness category. It has experienced 3.5x revenue growth since 2023 and now has operations across 70+ distribution partners globally. The company is now growing in both B2C and B2B markets in Europe and North America, and has started A series fundraising. Physical retail launches at Smartech Selfridges in London and Times Square in New York City in September.
