The dream journal, rebuilt
Dreams dissolve in minutes. Somnea catches them — voice-first, AI-powered, and built for the 60 seconds you have before the fragments slip away. Over time, it maps the patterns your subconscious has been trying to show you.
Record Your First Dream2 taps to record. No typing. No friction.
"...I was in a house that felt familiar but the stairs kept going — and there was someone behind me, not threatening exactly, just... present. And then I was outside and it was raining but I wasn't wet..."
The 60-second problem
You wake up with fragments — a hallway, a face, an emotion — and within minutes it's gone. You reach for your phone, open your notes app, try to type it out, and by the time you're done you've captured 20% of what you remembered. The rest is gone by breakfast.
How Somnea works
Two taps. Open Somnea, hit record, and talk. Don't worry about coherence — just let it out. Whisper to it, mumble through it, say whatever surfaces. Somnea captures everything.
Somnea transcribes your voice in real time, then gently guides you to fill the gaps — "You mentioned a house and a feeling of being chased. Can you say more about the house?" — reconstructing the dream into a readable, searchable narrative.
After a week, Somnea starts showing you what recurs — the places you return to, the people who appear, the emotions that cycle back. After a month, it maps your personal dream language and shows you what your subconscious has been processing.
Pattern note: Houses appear whenever you're navigating an unresolved life transition. The stairs are how your subconscious rates the difficulty of what you're processing.
The pattern layer
Generic dream dictionaries tell you what houses mean for everyone. Somnea tells you what houses mean for you — based on 47 entries where a house showed up, what was happening in your life at the time, and how the emotional context repeated.
After a month of entries, Somnea builds your personal dream lexicon. Not generic symbols — your symbols. And it connects dream content to how you've been feeling in waking life, so the pattern isn't just about dreams — it's about the connection between what you dream and how you live.
"The material that slips away in those first few minutes — that's not noise. That's where the insight lives."
Dreams are not random. They process what your waking mind hasn't finished with.
The most valuable data about your inner life disappears every morning unless you catch it in time.
No app should require you to be fully awake to use it. The best dream journal is the one you actually use.
Your subconscious has been
trying to tell you something.
Somnea is building now. The morning window is short — start capturing what matters.
