From a bedside recording to a moment you can review.

Step 2 — Add context before recording, only if you want to

You can start without tagging. If you want to note an existing routine or prescribed care, use the available tags before recording so you can revisit that context later. Do not start, stop or change treatment to create a comparison.

What was different tonight:

🍷 alcohol  ·  ☕ late caffeine  ·  😰 stress  ·  🍽️ large meal  ·  💊 existing prescribed medication  ·  🏃 hard workout

Existing routines or prescribed care you can note:

🛌 intended side-sleeping  ·  📐 usual head elevation  ·  👃 clinician-directed nasal spray  ·  🪶 usual pillow  ·  😷 prescribed CPAP use  ·  🧘 wind-down routine. Note existing care; do not start, stop or change treatment to build a comparison.

The Night Report is available whether you tag or not. Lifestyle Lab™ compares nights carrying one tag with nights missing that tag, when both groups have enough observations. Missing a tag does not prove the routine or product was absent.

Step 3 — Sleep how you sleep

There is nothing to wear or wake up to check. Follow the recording guidance for your phone and let the session run while you sleep.

One night is a snapshot. A longer run gives more context for your recent personal range. If you tag something specific — a side-sleep belt, an anti-snore pillow, or no alcohol on weeknights — compare several tagged and untagged nights and treat the result as an association, not proof of cause. (Here are common factors people choose to track.)

Step 5 — Keep or share a structured summary

Longer-period structured reports are separate from the first-morning Night Report. They organize observations, tag comparisons, coverage and limits in a structured PDF; Pro adds fuller content.

Print it, save it, or share it if you choose. It is a wellness-monitoring summary, not a clinical sleep report, and a clinician may still recommend validated medical testing based on your symptoms and history.

Why on-device AI (the privacy version, plain)

Your sleep audio is more personal than most people realize. It includes you snoring (private), your partner's breathing (theirs to share, not mine to sell), conversations you had right before falling asleep (no one else's business), and the dog scratching at the door at 2 a.m. (yours).

The AI runs on your phone. Recordings and clips are kept in app-controlled local storage. Audio leaves the device only when you use an explicit sharing or export action provided by the app or operating system.

Account and subscription data, aggregated sleep statistics and technical context may be sent to operate and support the service. SomniSense does not upload raw sleep audio. Your own exported or shared copies remain your choice. See the privacy policy for the complete data inventory.

What the validation number covers

SomniSense’s own audio methods were studied using recordings paired with reference annotations from clinical sleep studies (PSG). That research supports the method behind your breathing analysis. The benchmark does not independently validate every event boundary, duration, product label, phone, bedroom or personal result. See the task-by-task evidence for the methods and limits.

What you do with the data after a few weeks

The value grows as you build a longer personal record:

• First nights — learn what the report contains and inspect a few selected clips.
• Following nights — watch normal night-to-night variation and see your recent range.
• Tagged comparisons — compare nights carrying a tag with nights missing it when enough comparable observations exist; missing a tag does not prove the factor was absent.
• Beyond — keep a structured record you can review yourself or share during a professional conversation.
