Questions
people ask.
Why not just use my phone?
Your phone can do all of it, which is exactly the problem. As long as it's your alarm, it sleeps next to you. NOCTIS takes the bedside jobs, the alarm, the clock and the morning briefing, so your phone can stay charging in another room.
What does NOCTIS actually do?
It sets and sounds your alarm, shows a soft clock that dims with the room, and wakes you with a progressive alarm, a calm vibration pattern and soft sounds that build to a louder, still-calm wake-up pattern in the theme you choose. In the morning it tells you the time, the weather, an encouraging line, what's first in your calendar, and a rough estimate of how you slept.
Is it a medical device?
No. NOCTIS doesn't diagnose or treat anything. Sleep time and snoring are estimates from room sensing, useful as a pattern and never as a measurement. If you're worried about your sleep or snoring, talk to a doctor.
How accurate is the sleep estimate?
It's an estimate, and we label it that way on the device. It is built from room sensing rather than anything worn on your body, so treat it as a rough guide to your nights.
What does it do with the microphone?
Microphone audio is processed on NOCTIS itself, and conversations aren't stored. Short snore clips are saved to your app only if you choose to turn that on.
Does it need Wi-Fi or power?
It runs from USB-C (5 V). Wi-Fi is used for things like the weather and, as planned, your calendar. What the clock does during a power cut is not final, and we will state it clearly before orders open.
Which calendars will it work with?
Google Calendar and Apple Calendar are planned. This is still in development and may change.
Can I buy one yet?
Not yet. NOCTIS is a working prototype in development. Joining the waitlist is free, with no deposit and no commitment, and you'll hear from us first.
How much will it cost?
We expect NOCTIS to cost €120. We'll confirm the final price with the waitlist before orders open.
What do you do with my email?
We use it to tell you about NOCTIS: launch updates and first access. The details are on the privacy page, and you can ask us to remove them at any time.
