Great to hear that you found something that works for you. If guided meditation works for you almost every night, then you should certainly stick with it! For many of our patients (including myself), guided meditation worked in the short term but then stopped working because it didn’t actually resolve their underlying insomnia (e.g., for me, a lot of my insomnia came from distortive thoughts I had about sleep).

Our app is different from pure meditation/relaxation apps that offer “rain sounds”. Instead, we go through a psychology-based program (behavioral therapy) that walks you through the underlying causes of insomnia, helps you address the ones that are relevant to you, and uses techniques like sleep restriction therapy to limit the amount of time you spend in bed.

I’ll give an example. Let’s say when you go to bed at night, you’re constantly thinking about unfinished todos or worrying about some big upcoming event. While meditation and “rain sounds” might help distract you enough to fall asleep, what if you stopped having those thoughts in bed in the first place? That’s what our app aims to do.

In terms of pricing, we do offer a free, 7-day trial and our price ends up being about $45 per month. In comparison, seeing an in-person treatment specialist costs about $150-200 per session without insurance, or $25-$50 per session with insurance. Typically, you would see an in-person specialist every week or every other week.

What is the difference between the $131 plan the the lifetime access for $29 I found here:

The "rain sounds" crack I got from your only product image. It was literally "nature sounds" though.

I agree meditation is a bit of a short fix, but without knowing what this app really does, I have a difficult time trusting that it's anything more.

45/mo feels like a marketing trick when the minimum charged is $133 :(

There's definitely a mental block with paying hundreds of dollars for a phone app. Most apps on my phone remain unopened. I've tried a few health aids like this before.

I'd download a free/trial version if it helped me get any amount of of sleep back, and then with established trust, pay $20+/mo for access to rest of features.

Otherwise maybe sell through those specialists? Help them manage their patients.

Just wanted to +1 this, I did fill out the survey, but was a little disappointed to end up at a payment screen. Totally understand this is a service worth paying for, but being able to try it out for a bit before entering payment details would be nice.

I know I could hit cancel, but I am often bad at doing that on time, which leads me to avoid trying out things that require payment details up-front.

Thanks for sharing!
