About

Working as an English teacher at a training institution in the fast-paced city of Shanghai, I constantly witness the severe toll that high-stress urban environments and disrupted sleep schedules take on my students, my colleagues, and myself. I realized that brute-forcing sleep with melatonin or fighting through the day with caffeine wasn't the answer. Driven by a passion for neuroscience and Dr. Andrew Huberman's teachings, I taught myself iOS development to build the tool I desperately needed. Circa Accord is an indie project born out of a genuine desire to help modern urbanites reclaim their energy and focus through natural, biological alignment.

Circa Accord: Sleep Protocols - Sleep systems for creators, founders, and night thinkers

Circa Accord introduces a new System Predictor modal and simulated SWS (Slow Wave Sleep) audio monitoring. The predictor analyzes behavioral patterns to generate recovery and cognitive load insights with personalized recommendations. The SWS system simulates sleep-cycle detection, acoustic stimulation triggers, and HealthKit-style background data processing for deeper sleep optimization. Project infrastructure was also refined for cleaner development management.

👋 Hey Product Hunt! Kade here, solo developer behind Circa Accord.

Let s be honest: tracking your sleep data doesn't fix a broken schedule.

A few months ago, working a high-intensity job in Shanghai completely wrecked my nervous system. I had severe burnout, my eyelids were twitching constantly, and my sleep architecture was destroyed. I downloaded every sleep tracker on the App Store, but they all did the same thing: they showed me beautiful charts of how poorly I slept, but offered zero actionable steps to fix my daytime habits.

So, I built the tool I desperately needed.

Meet Circa Accord It s not just a sleep tracker; it s a privacy-first circadian rhythm optimizer. It focuses on behavioral conditioning and neuroscience protocols.

I learned Xcode to build a sleep tracker with AI psychological coaches.

I want to share a project I ve been pouring my heart into for the past few months: Circa Accord.

The Backstory

Living in a hyper-fast-paced urban environment, my daily routine was completely broken. I was constantly trapped in "revenge bedtime procrastination." I tried almost every sleep and habit tracker on the App Store, but I kept running into the same issue: raw data wasn't enough to change my behavior. Seeing a beautiful chart showing I only slept 4 hours didn't stop me from doom-scrolling the next night at 2 AM. I realized I needed psychological leverage, not just analytics.

So, I spent my evenings teaching myself iOS development to build the exact tool I needed.
