Rethinking fatigue management
Somna started with a simple observation: millions of shift workers suffer from a lack of tools to manage the transitions between schedules. We're a team of design engineers creating individualised shift worker interventions with a validated clinical health benefit.
Our values
Every shift worker has a different roster, a different body, and a different recovery pattern. Somna provides personalised sleep scheduling and wake timing tools around the constraints of your calendar.
Why we publish our findings
In shift work, fatigue is a severe issue. Yet, by both employers and doctors it is often overlooked or disregarded.
As we aim to minimise fatigue in the professions in which it is most prevalent and critical, we believe that contributing to research will be critical in improving their lives. Somna runs controlled studies with shift workers, where you can opt in through our waitlist. We commit to publishing results openly, whether they validate or challenge our approach.
You can delve into the research being done on our research page if you wish to learn more about our informed approach.
Individualised fatigue management
We're starting with rotating shift workers (nurses, paramedics, factory operators) because their need is the most acute and the least served. But the underlying problem extends far beyond hospitals and warehouses. Long-haul drivers, airline crews, military personnel, and emergency services all face the same challenge: managing fatigue with no personalised support.
Somna aims to build an individualised fatigue management platform that adapts to any schedule and person. The way you react to different transition will optioinally inform future transitions, continuously improving on reducing recovery time.
