💡 Sleep happens in ~90-minute cycles. Waking at the end of a cycle (rather than mid-cycle) helps you feel refreshed instead of groggy. Most adults do best with 5–6 cycles (7.5–9 hours), plus ~15 minutes to drift off.

Early Wake tips

⏰

For a 5am wake-up, the calculator shows which bedtimes give whole cycles instead of a jarring mid-cycle alarm.

💡

If you can't get 6 cycles, a clean 4-5 cycles often beats a longer sleep that ends mid-cycle.

🎯

Avoid caffeine 6+ hours before your planned bedtime so you actually fall asleep on schedule.
