Interview With FirmTech’s Dr. Elliot Justin About His Company’s New ‘Smart” TechRing

The TechRing is FirmTech’s revolutionary ‘smart’ erection ring that’s as easy to use as to wear. The ring’s penoscrotal design wraps around the testicles and shaft, allowing for a comfortable firm fit so the ring’s wearer can as much judge his sexual performance, as wear the ring overnight to gather objective intel about his sexual health (a sensor included with the ring measures penis blood flow at night, tracking both sexual and nocturnal erections).

The RingMate, is a discreet yet powerful vibrator that easily slides onto any FirmTech erection ring, providing hands-free clitoral stimulation during penetrative sex—or it can be used solo with its easy-grip loops. With three vibration settings, a compact and ergonomic design, and soft, body-safe materials, the RingMate delivers intense, customizable pleasure to the TechRing.

Dr. Elliot Justin, the CEO and co-founder of FirmTech cock ring elaborates on the above, and more…

While the TechRing surely uses the latest technology for its reporting ‘connectability,’ the ring itself is of a rather simple, comfy design. Can you explain it?

The TechRing is an improvement over general cock rings because with our innovative and original hook and latch design they are easy to get on and off and to stay comfortable after climax. FirmTech’s rings are made from a stretchy elastomer so men can wear it for 90 minutes (MaxPR) or overnight (TechRing). 

They are also penoscrotal, which adds increased sensation in the testicles.  

Tell us about exactly the intel the connection gathers and how it gathers it.  

The TechRing contains a pressure sensor and strain gauge that measures blood flow to the penis. Designed to be worn overnight, it tracks both sexual and nocturnal erections. Healthy men typically have 3 to 5 nocturnal erections per night - key indicators of vascular health.

Has science yet determined the percentage of men who suffer from a physical hindrance that results in ED as opposed to a mental/emotional one? And if the cause is the latter, can a cock ring (your wonderful one or any other) make a difference?  

What our TechRing has uncovered with its data gathering is that most men's problem as they age is not getting an erection but keeping it up. Pills put the blood in the penis, while our rings keep it up.  

All men suffer from venous leak as they continue to age so their erections fade faster. This fading leads to a loss of confidence. But it is important to add that 12-15 percent of the fading erection is physical, 85 percent or more is loss of confidence or interest due to partner issues, as well as alcohol, drugs, medications, etc.

With social media all but influencing our every move, when it comes to sexual health, is a little knowledge strewn across the web always a good thing? I am thinking about folks who meter their ailments (or create them in their own heads) because of constant research on WEBMD, etc?  

With little effort, using the TechRing people can get objective, actionable and personal data about their sexual and cardiovascular health. They do not have to rely on influencer opinions or the conjectures of folks online.  

Do you have any future products coming you might tell us about?  

A: We’re working on the Clitique - a nocturnal and sex arousal tracker for women. Launching in early 2026, it will help women understand how diabetes, hypertension, medications, hormones, alcohol, and even relationships affect their sexual and vascular health. It’s time women had the same insights men are finally getting.
