Somnera is a private, local-first sleep lab on your iPhone. It uses on-device AI to analyze your breathing, snoring, and sleep patterns without sending your data to the cloud. Powered by custom DSP and machine learning, Somnera can help identify acoustic patterns across nasal, palatal, and lingual snoring, while Sentinel V2 adds posture-aware context from your iPhone’s motion. With Apple Watch integration, Somnera combines movement, heart rate, and oxygen data with acoustic analysis for a clearer view of your nightly sleep homeostasis. Your audio, telemetry, and reports stay on your device.
