The Science

Why gentle matters.

Standard alarms trigger a "fight or flight" response. Wonderwake respects your biology.

🧠

Stop the Cortisol Spike

Sudden alarms shock your system, spiking heart rate by up to 20 BPM instantly and releasing stress hormones before you even leave bed.

Wonderwake’s gradual audio rise respects your cortisol awakening response (CAR), keeping your baseline calm and protecting your heart long-term.

Avoid Sleep Inertia

Waking up abruptly from deep sleep leaves you groggy. Our slow fade pulls you out of deep cycles naturally.

Fix Circadian Rhythm

Mimicking gradual morning sound helps align your internal clock for better energy.

How it works

Your Custom
Symphony.

Choose how long you want your wake-up to last—from 5 to 60 minutes. Wonderwake uses a custom audio engine to increase volume imperceptibly.

It starts silent. Then a whisper. Then a melody. By the time you open your eyes, the room is filled with sound.

Never miss an alarm: If the gentle fade doesn't wake you, a backup melody plays at the end to ensure you're up on time.
