Give me the hour you must be awake. Everything else gets measured backwards from it, tonight.

Ninety seconds. Nothing worn, nothing measured, no account.

Two nights like this and measured reaction time is close to a legal drink. Nobody feels it happening, which is the whole problem.

The body clock

Move one hour and the whole day moves with it

Every window below is measured from the hour you wake, not from the clock on the wall. Drag the wake hour and watch them all travel.

Your own shape, not somebody's average

Three answers each morning. Nothing worn, nothing measured, no graph pretending to know your sleep stages.

Three nights is the minimum before a shape means anything. Keep going.

Four layers, and a hand on each one

No files, no streaming, nothing loading. The sound is generated as you move the faders, so it never loops and never ends.

Headphones are not required and are not ideal. Put it on a speaker across the room, quiet enough that you stop noticing it.

the difference between twenty and ninety

Three naps, and only two of them help

Light sleep only. You wake clear, it does not touch tonight, and it is the correct answer to the afternoon dip.

A room for the hours nobody else is awake

Post at 03:40 and somebody is there. Aliases only, sleep specialists answering under their real names, and nothing ranked.

Opens with the full platform. Your alias already works here.

The five questions that come first

For most adults the range is seven to nine, and where you sit in it is largely genetic. The useful number is not hours in bed, it is whether you can get through the afternoon without caffeine and without wanting to lie down. If you can, you are sleeping enough, whatever the number says.

One hour in, and the rest of tonight arranges itself around it.
