In 2017, four UC Berkeley neuroscientists set out on a mission to transform how we sleep. 7 years, 1000s of nights of data, and a peer-reviewed study later, Somnee was born — a first-of-its-kind sleep wearable that strengthens your brain's natural sleep ability, night after night.

1,500+ doctors
Somnee uses lab-grade EEG+ sensors to read and track your brain’s real-time sleep activity — giving our AI engine the raw data it needs to understand how your brain likes to sleep and build your personalized neurostimulation program.
Each night, Somnee delivers gentle, AI-personalized electrical waves (tACS) that mirror and enhance your brain’s optimal sleep signals to create an effortless journey into deeper, more efficient rest.
The way your brain likes to sleep changes night to night, and over time. After 21 sessions, Somnee SmartSleep AI ™ is fully personalized and primed with all the data it needs to dynamically evolve your stimulation for lifetime adaptation.
Dynamic AI/ML-Powered Personalization
Somnee improves sleep quality by delivering gentle electrical signals personalized to your brain. These gentle signals nudge your brainwaves into their optimal rhythms for deeper, more restorative rest.
Our Breakthrough
After testing auditory, tactile, and visual stimulation for better sleep, Somnee’s science team found our breakthrough:
Carefully timed, gentle electrical pulses, personalized to your brain's sleep signals. Amazingly, our team found that this approach didn’t just help people fall asleep faster... It actively strengthened deep sleep brainwaves, reduced wake-ups by 33%, and increased total sleep time by nearly 30 minutes on average.

The More You Use Somnee, The Better It Gets
Somnee spends your first 7 sessions to mapping your unique brainprint. Your next 14 sessions, Somnee builds a personalized neurostimulation program that nudges your brainwaves into their optimal sleep pathways. After 21 sessions, Somnee is prepared to dynamically and effectively adapt your nightly stimulation — no matter how your sleep changes over time.
Know Your Night. Own Your Day.
Somnee offers the most accurate sleep data commercially available. But we know numbers alone don’t help you sleep better. That’s why every morning, we translate your overnight brain activity into a personalized sleep reports with easy-to-read data and insights that actually make sense.
