Alora Wake
Wakes you gently and always wakes you
Smart Wake times your alarm to your lightest sleep. Night Mode simulates sunrise. A spoken briefing starts your morning. Underneath: an engineering guarantee that no alarm can end in silence — layered fallbacks through audio, haptics, and Apple Watch.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Mark, a solo developer from Pittsburgh. I've spent the last 17 months building Alora Wake around one question: "If this fails, what wakes the user?" Every alarm app promises to wake you. But if you're a heavy sleeper, you know the real story — the alarm that didn't fire because of a silent update, the streaming song that never played, the "smart" alarm that decided you didn't need waking. So the fix becomes three alarms, ten minutes apart, at maximum volume. You wake up — into a cortisol spike. I didn't think gentle and reliable should be a tradeoff. I'm a pilot and veteran — about 30 years in aviation, where a missed wake-up is never an option — and I built Alora Wake to that standard, like safety-critical software. Every code path that could end in silence routes to a fallback: primary audio → bundled sound → haptics → Apple Watch. A watchdog literally checks that audio is actually playing seconds after fire time, and escalates if it isn't. I call the invariant NO SILENT ALARM — a wake path without a fallback doesn't ship. On top of that foundation, the mornings get nice: Smart Wake uses your heart rate and motion to catch your lightest sleep in the wake window. Night Mode fills your room with a slow sunrise. When you dismiss, a calm spoken briefing gives you weather, calendar, and how you slept. And if you're the kind of sleeper who's slept through everything — 11 dismissal challenges, plus a backup contact who gets notified if you sleep through it all. It's free to try, with a 7-day trial on premium. I'll be here all day. Honest question for the heavy sleepers: what's the worst thing an alarm app has ever done to you? I've spent 17 months making sure this one can't do it.
