The short version
- Soaak’s Find My Frequency, launched October 6, turns readings from an Apple Watch, Garmin, Fitbit, Oura ring or Whoop band into a personalized sound session.
- The company cites a sleep study of 18,000 nights and pilot studies with 90.3% approval, and gives no journal, link or control group for any of them.
- Checking your own watch before and after a session cannot tell a real effect from a placebo or from a night that was going to be better anyway.
Soaak Technologies of Tulsa, Oklahoma, launched a feature called Find My Frequency on October 6. It reads sleep, heart rate and heart-rate variability from an Apple Watch, Garmin, Google or Fitbit device, Oura ring or Whoop band, takes the user’s stated needs, and generates what the company calls an individualized sound-frequency composition. Later readings from the same wearable are then used to judge the response. It is in the Soaak app on iOS and Android with a free trial. The release gives no price.
The company says its platform has delivered more than 90 million minutes of listening in 190 countries. For evidence it points to “a third-party sleep study of 18,000 nights across 550 subjects” and to Oura and Garmin pilot studies in which 90.3% of participants said Soaak supported their sleep and stress management.
The release names no journal, author or link for either study, and mentions no control group. A figure like 90.3% is a satisfaction rating. It does not measure sleep. The “closed loop” is one person comparing a reading before with a reading after, and sleep and heart-rate variability swing from night to night on their own, so a rough night is often followed by a better one whatever is playing.
The release itself states that the product “is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.”
