After years of extremely high demand and excitement around supporting Sunny, we've decide to extend funding to Angels, VCs, customers, and brand fans alike! Together, we will co-create the very first FDA Cleared Menstrual Cup Applicator and the next sustainable period care eco-system for every body. Join the menstrual movement today āļø
Period cups are nothing new. They were first invented in the 1930s (š±), but despite the significant environmental, financial, and convenient benefits of the reusable menstrual collection device, they have been largely unheard of and unadopted until recent years. It wasn't until recently that we've seen a period care revolution in which menstruators are empowered by the products they choose and are no longer accepting the expensive, wasteful, and uncomfortable tampons and pads they've been stuck with since the beginning of time. With the readiness for better period care, comes innovation.
How has Sunny created a "total game changer" in period care? After spending 5 years on R&D filled with hundreds of prototypes, consumer surveys, beta tests, and focus groups, passionate Sunny co-founders meshed ALL the benefits of reusable period cups with the familiarity of a tampon. And how did the public react? Since launching pre-orders in 2022, Sunny has reached hundreds of millions of fans all saying "duh?! this is genius!" After listening to menstuators' pain points and addressing the #1 barrier to switching to a period cup (intimidation of insertion), the Sunny Cup + Applicator was a no-brainer.
Disposable period products cost each menstruator up to $6,000 in their lifetime, create 200k Tons of waste each year, and often contain harmful chemicals and dyes. (SWNS, Global Citizen)
In recent years, we've seen a spike in interest in reusable period care alternatives. The Menstrual Cup segment is growing faster than the tampon and pad industries combined at a 6.75% CAGR.
While menstrual cups are better for the environment, our bodies, and save money, they have an overall low adoption rate due to their intimidating and unfamiliar nature. We found that the #1 barrier to switching to a period cup is the insertion process.
The Sunny Cup + Applicator is the period cup that inserts like a tampon with a reusable applicator, eliminating #1 barrier (intimidation of insertion) for people to switch to menstrual cups.
The Sunny Cup has all the environmental, health, and financial benefits of a menstrual cup with the familiarity of a tampon. It can be worn for up to 12 hours, holds 2-5x more liquid than a tampon, saves the user up to $6,000 in their lifetime, and saves 14,000 tampons/pads from landfills in the userās lifetime.
Unlike other, bulkier cups, the Sunny Cup has the ability to fold as thin as a tampon, which allows it to fit into our reusable, tampon-style applicator. It's made of soft, flexible, medical grade silicone that cannot be felt when worn! The unique design of the Sunny Cup along with the pairing of the two devices are patent pending under design and utility patents.

We have continued to go viral dozens of times, have gained the attention of major menstrual cup reviewers, calling AliExpress's horrible device a "rip off of the Sunny Cup Applicator", and have been championed by excited customers through word of mouth and online sharing.

Disposable period products produce massive amounts of waste, cost billions each year, and an increasing number of people are looking to reusables in western countries
This accounts for the 6.4% CAGR of the already $39Bn global menstrual health market. Interestingly enough, our research shows that the number of people interested in a menstrual cup in the US is the same as the number of people who own a truck in the US (crazy, right?!)
