Dad’s sleep often gets swept under the rug. But with ~30% of men experiencing insomnia and new fathers sleeping less than female partners — dad's sleep deserves a spotlight. Headlines have made the cost of chronically poor sleep clear: it’s bad for heart health, blood pressure, diabetes, memory, focus, and even longevity. But for men, research suggests chronically poor sleep can also take a toll on testosterone levels, lower urinary tract symptoms, fertility, and more. Wanting better sleep doesn’t mean you’re weak. And poor sleep is not something you can just ‘suck it up and get through.’ It has a real impact on your health, relationships, and life. Dads deserve a good night’s sleep, every night. So you can wake up strong, healthy, and ready to take on your day — whether that’s powering through work, hitting PRs in the gym, or enjoying a day out with loved ones. For the dad who’s exhausted but can’t fall asleep — Fall asleep 2x faster. Go from overdrive to calm. — A stressful day can keep you wired and awake long after bedtime. Somnee works at the source, gently coaxing your nervous system away from alert and wired, into relaxation for easier, more restorative rest. After personalization, many Somnee sleepers report falling asleep in half their usual time. For the dad losing half of his nights to wake-ups — Reduce wake-ups + reset fast with DriftBack. — Wake-ups tend to rise as the years roll by, whether from natural shifts to how the brain sleeps, travel, or family responsibilities. Over time, Somnee’s personalized sessions help cut wake-ups ~33%. And if you do wake-up? Gently guide your brain back to sleep with DriftBack, a 10-minute personalized wake-up recovery session. For the dad who’s short on time — All it takes is 15 minutes before bed. — Somnee fits into your routine, priming your brain for more restful, restorative sleep in your final 15 minutes before bed. Just slip it on, press the headband button, lay back and relax while Somnee gently promotes your brain’s sleep signals for faster, deeper rest. For the dad tired of pills that wreck sleep quality — 1.5x more effective than sleeping pills. No next-day brain fog. — Sleeping pills knock you out — but they don't actually improve your sleep quality, and the next-day fog is real. Somnee works differently. Rather than forcing sleep with chemicals, Somnee speaks your brain's natural language — gentle electrical signals that nudge your brain toward deeper, more restorative sleep. The result? 1.5x more effective than sleeping pills and 4x more effective than melatonin. For the dad who’s tired of running on fumes — High-quality sleep. All-day energy. No caffeine needed. — Hours in bed are only half the story. It's the quality of those hours that truly determines how you feel the next day. Somnee helps you sleep faster and improves sleep quality at the source, nudging your brain activity into deeper, more restorative sleep. For the dad who just wants to survive the midday slump — 10-minute Nap Sessions for real mid-day recovery. — Forget the power nap. Somnee's 10-minute personalized Nap Sessions nudge your brain straight into a deep sleep cycle, helping you fall asleep 2x faster and giving your mind and body a real chance to recoup. The kind of mid-day reset that has you coming back to your desk (or your weekend) actually recharged, not just less tired. For the dad who wants proof before he commits — Developed by UC Berkeley neuroscientists. 300k+ nights of better sleep. — Somnee was developed over 8 years by four UC Berkeley neuroscientists, including Dr. Matt Walker, author of the New York Times bestseller Why We Sleep. Since launching in 2022, Somnee has supported over 300,000 nights of better sleep — with 2,000+ doctors recommending it as effective support for better sleep. For the dad struggling with chaotic sleep schedules — Naturally better sleep, on your schedule. — Whether you're a new dad grinding through sleep training or a road warrior battling jet lag — when your sleep schedule's off, everything feels off. Somnee works with your natural circadian rhythms, gently promoting deep, restorative sleep activity on your schedule. Just set a sleep reminder in the app, slip Somnee on, and let it do the heavy lifting, so you wake up restored, no matter your schedule. For the dad who's done with 'solutions' that don't deliver — 100% personalized to your brain's sleep pathways. — Unlike one-size-fits-all ‘solutions,’ Somnee uses medical-grade EEG sensors to map your brain’s unique sleep pathways and build gentle neuromodulation personalized to you. Somnee gets better night after night, helping you maintain higher-quality sleep as your schedule and sleep needs change over time. Celebrate Father's Day with $90 off! Use code: DADDY90 →
