The International Academy of Sleep

What The International Academy of Sleep does

The International Academy of Sleep (IAOS), operating under Restfull LLC and headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, is a continuing education and software company focused exclusively on dental sleep medicine (DSM). Its core product is the Dental Sleep Blueprint, a two-day in-person course (priced at $1,495 per dentist, 14 CE credits) that trains general dentists to add sleep apnea treatment to their practices, alongside a lower-priced Virtual Blueprint ($299, 5 CE credits). The proprietary Restfull software platform provides 'guided documentation' with workflow guardrails that enforce compliance with the medical insurance claims process and is positioned as the recurring-revenue engine that converts course graduates into ongoing subscribers.

IAOS monetizes through three primary streams: per-attendee CE course registrations (one-time), SleepCon annual conference ticket sales and three-tier vendor sponsorships (Diamond $18,000, Gold $7,995, Silver $5,995), and Restfull software subscriptions. The company targets SMB dental practices in the United States, claiming 1,500 dentists billing successfully through the system out of an addressable base of roughly 100,000 dentists who have taken any sleep course. The CEO is Avi Weisfogel and the COO is Heather Wallace, supported by a coaching bench including billing, support, dentist, and business coaches. AGD PACE Program Provider status (renewed 7/1/2025–6/30/2027) underwrites the continuing education credit that is central to course demand.
