The science behind sleep and energy. Every article backed by peer-reviewed research and interactive tools.

Sleep isn't a passive state. While you sleep, your brain consolidates memories, your immune system regenerates, and your circadian clock recalibrates for the next day. How sharp you feel at 10 AM depends directly on what happened during the past few nights.

The two-process model by Borbély (1982) describes how sleep pressure and circadian rhythm interact to shape your energy curve. Circadian Energy makes this model tangible: using real sleep data, your personal chronotype, and a daily energy forecast.

The articles below explain the science behind the app. Every claim is backed by primary research sources.
