Endless Anki Reviews

You're drowning in flashcard reviews. There aren't enough hours in the day to get through your deck AND learn new material.

🧠

It Just Won't Stick

You study for hours, feel confident, then blank on the exam. The information is in there somewhere—you just can't access it.

😴

Sleep or Study?

You're sacrificing sleep to study more, but sleep deprivation tanks your memory consolidation. It's a losing battle.

What if your sleep was study time?

How Med Students Use SomniCue

Integrate sleep learning into your existing study routine in minutes.

1

Create Items

Add the topics you're struggling with. One concept per item works best.

Example: 'Brachial Plexus branches'

2

Study with Cues

Review in Study Mode. Random audio cues create memory associations.

Use Flicker Trigger for tough concepts

3

Sleep

SomniCue detects deep sleep via Smart Watch and replays your cues.

Optimal delivery during N3 stage

4

Wake Up Sharper

Check your overnight stats. Review the reinforced topics if needed.

Track progress over time

Perfect For High-Volume Subjects

TMR works best for declarative memory—facts, terminology, and associations.

Anatomy

Muscle origins, nerve pathways, arterial supply

Pharmacology

Drug mechanisms, side effects, interactions

Microbiology

Pathogen characteristics, gram stains, virulence

Pathology

Disease presentations, histology findings

What Med Students Say

"I was struggling with pharm until I started using SomniCue. Waking up and actually remembering drug mechanisms felt like a superpower."

Sarah M.

MS2, Northeastern

"Used this throughout dedicated. My UWorld percentages jumped 15% on topics I was reinforcing overnight."

James K.

MS4, Matched Ortho

"The Flicker Trigger is genius. I shake my wrist whenever I miss a question, and it gets priority replay that night."

Priya R.

MS3, UCLA

Board Prep

Supercharge Your USMLE/COMLEX Prep

During dedicated, every hour counts. SomniCue helps you maximize the 6-8 hours you're sleeping anyway.

  • UWorld Integration

    Use Flicker Trigger when you miss a question. That topic gets priority overnight.

  • High-Yield Focus

    Limit active items to your weakest topics. Quality reinforcement beats quantity.

  • Protect Your Sleep

    Sleep deprivation kills memory. SomniCue helps you learn without sacrificing rest.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the audio cues wake me up during sleep?

No. SomniCue plays cues at very low volumes during deep sleep when your brain is receptive but unlikely to wake. The Smart Watch detects your sleep stage and only delivers cues at optimal moments.

How is this different from listening to lectures while sleeping?

Passive listening doesn't work—your brain tunes it out. TMR uses brief cues (not content) that were associated with learning during study. These cues trigger your brain to replay and strengthen those specific memories.

What subjects work best with SomniCue?

Declarative memory subjects like Anatomy, Pharmacology, Microbiology, and Pathology work best. Anything involving facts, associations, and terminology benefits from TMR.

Can I use this during dedicated USMLE/COMLEX study?

Absolutely. Many students use SomniCue during their dedicated study period to reinforce high-yield concepts overnight. Use the Flicker Trigger to mark difficult UWorld questions.

How many items should I study per night?

We recommend 3-5 active items per night with Pro. Quality over quantity—focus on your weakest topics rather than trying to reinforce everything.
