The infrastructure layer for chronic airway disease.

Somnus is an airway platform company. We treat obstructive sleep apnea as a chronic condition, not a one-time surgical event — and we built the company to match that reality.

01Narrative

What we're building, in our own words.

We're building the infrastructure layer for chronic airway disease.

The clinical wedge is HYPNARA, a palatal implant with strong unit economics: $2,500 ASP, $300 COGS, 88% gross margin, break-even at two thousand units. FDA Pre-Submission meets May 7, 510(k) filed late 2026 using Pillar as predicate, clearance targeted Q1/Q2 2027 with limited launch. That's the near-term commercial story.

The platform is what makes the company durable. Somnus Sleep™ turns any smartphone into a sensor through BSA™, our on-device acoustic breathing and snoring engine — zero hardware, zero cost to enter the funnel. MORPHEX™AI is a smart oral device that pairs with HYPNARA post-procedure, shipping in three regulatory stages — standard MAD, wellness-grade sensors, diagnostic clearance — so each stage funds the next. The Somnus Bedside Node™ sits at the premium tier with mmWave radar and beamforming mics. The Somnus Index™ is the composite score that tracks progression across all of it, and the Somnus Provider Directory™ routes flagged users to Somnus-trained™ surgeons.

That's the flywheel: a patient monitored on the Index today becomes a referral for HYPNARA tomorrow.

Our defensible moat is the software layer. Twelve patent applications filed, growing to roughly nineteen applications and three hundred ninety-plus claims over the next twelve months. The patents cover closed-loop titration driven by small language models on-device, multi-node sensor fusion including thermostats and mattresses, and a privacy-partitioned social sleep network. None of that is duplicable from hardware alone.

We're not selling a device. We're building the infrastructure layer for chronic airway disease.

02The Flywheel

Every product makes the others more valuable.

Somnus Index™ breathing credit score Somnus Sleep™ + BSA™ Acoustic · any phone SENSOR Bedside Node™ mmWave · beamforming SENSOR · ROADMAP Therapy Outcomes Post-procedure data FEEDBACK Provider Directory™ Routes to Somnus-trained ROUTING HYPNARA™ Implant THERAPY MORPHEX™ AI THERAPY Other Partner pathway CPAP · HGNS · OTHER

Three sensing streams feed the Somnus Index. The Index scores each patient and routes them through the Provider Directory to the right therapy — HYPNARA, MORPHEX AI, or another pathway the clinician selects. Post-procedure outcomes feed back into the Index. Every loop makes the next routing smarter.

03The Platform

Seven pieces, one flywheel.

Clinical Wedge
HYPNARA

Palatal implant for snoring and mild-to-moderate OSA. 510(k) via Pillar predicate, manufactured at Voltas Medical (ISO 13485).

$2,500 ASP · 88% GM · Clearance Q1/Q2 2027
Oral Device Arm
MORPHEX AI

Smart oral device pairing with HYPNARA post-procedure. Ships in three regulatory stages so each stage funds the next.

V1 MAD → V2 wellness sensors → V3 diagnostic
Top of Funnel
Somnus Sleep + BSA

Turns any smartphone into a sensor via BSA, our on-device acoustic breathing and snoring engine. Zero hardware, zero cost to enter the funnel.

Pre-launch · FDA General Wellness Policy-aligned
The Score
Somnus Index

Composite score that tracks airway progression across every product. Patient-facing in the app, provider-facing in the Directory, outcomes framework for both devices.

Core of the defensible moat
Provider Interface
Somnus Provider Directory

Routes flagged users from the app to Somnus-trained surgeons. Subscription revenue engine for the software side.

In development
Premium Tier · Roadmap
Somnus Bedside Node

Premium-tier bedside hardware with mmWave radar and beamforming mics. Extends BSA and the Somnus Index beyond the phone, and pairs with the MORPHEX AI V3 diagnostic tier when that stage activates.

Roadmap — aligns with MORPHEX AI V3 stage
