Traditional Studying is Broken

You're working harder than ever but still forgetting half of what you learn.

Caffeine-Fueled Cramming

You pull all-nighters before exams, running on coffee and anxiety. By test time, you're exhausted and can barely think straight.

🧠

The Forgetting Curve

You study for hours, feel prepared, then blank on the exam. Without reinforcement, you forget 70% within 24 hours.

😴

Sleep vs. Study Tradeoff

You sacrifice sleep to study more, but sleep deprivation destroys memory consolidation. It's a losing battle.

What if sleep was study time?

Study with Cues

Review in Study Mode. Audio cues play at random intervals, creating memory associations.

3

Sleep

SomniCue detects deep sleep via Smart Watch and replays your cues at optimal moments.

4

Retain More

Wake up with stronger memories. Topics you reinforced overnight stick better.

Students Love SomniCue

"Finals week used to destroy me. Now I prep my hardest topics in SomniCue and let it reinforce them overnight. My GPA went up a full point."

Jordan K.

Junior, UCLA

"I was skeptical but tried it for my psych midterm. Woke up and terms I'd been struggling with just... clicked. Ended up with an A-."

Emma S.

Sophomore, NYU

"The Flicker Trigger is clutch. When I'm studying and something finally makes sense, I shake my wrist and it gets priority replay that night."

Marcus T.

Senior, Georgia Tech

Finals Week Survival

Survive Finals Without Destroying Yourself

Finals week doesn't have to mean sleep deprivation and mental breakdowns. Here's how to use SomniCue strategically.

  • Start Early

    Begin reinforcing topics 1-2 weeks before finals. Don't wait until the last minute.

  • Prioritize Weak Spots

    Focus SomniCue on your hardest topics. Use Flicker Trigger on concepts that won't stick.

  • Protect Your Sleep

    All-nighters backfire. Get 7-8 hours and let SomniCue work overnight.

  • Night Before = Light Review

    Don't cram. Quick review, set your items, sleep. TMR does the heavy lifting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this just playing lectures while I sleep?

No—that doesn't work and studies prove it. SomniCue uses Targeted Memory Reactivation (TMR), which plays brief audio cues (not content) that were associated with studying. These cues trigger your brain to replay and strengthen those specific memories during deep sleep.

Will it wake me up?

No. Cues play at very low volumes during deep sleep when your brain is receptive but won't wake up. SomniCue uses your Smart Watch to detect sleep stages and only delivers cues at safe moments.

What subjects work best?

Any subject requiring memorization: history dates, biology terms, chemistry formulas, vocabulary, foreign languages, psychology concepts, etc. TMR works best for declarative memory—facts and information you need to recall.

How is this different from Anki or Quizlet?

SomniCue complements flashcard apps, not replaces them. Use Anki/Quizlet during the day for active recall, then let SomniCue reinforce those same concepts overnight. It's an extra layer of memory consolidation.

I'm a broke college student. Is there a free version?

Yes! The free tier includes 3 study items, 2-3 cues per night, and vibration-only mode. It's enough to try TMR and see if it works for you before upgrading to Pro.

Does it work for STEM subjects?

Absolutely. Chemistry formulas, physics constants, biology terminology, programming syntax—anything you need to memorize. Conceptual understanding still requires active study, but TMR helps cement the facts.
