## FAQ

### What is the 90-minute sleep cycle theory used here?

Human sleep follows roughly 90-minute cycles of NREM and REM sleep. Waking up at the end of a cycle, rather than in the middle of deep sleep, significantly reduces 'sleep inertia' and morning grogginess.

### How does the Meeting Cost Auditor help with ROI?

By visualizing the real-time financial drain of a meeting, teams are nudged to keep discussions focused, limit attendees to essential personnel, and improve overall operational efficiency.

### Is Time Boxing more effective than a To-Do list?

Yes. Unlike open-ended lists, Time Boxing applies 'Parkinson's Law' — the concept that work expands to fill the time available. Setting a fixed 'box' forces faster decision-making and prevents perfectionism.

### How accurate is the Sleep Cycle Calculator?

It uses the established 90-minute sleep cycle model recommended by sleep researchers. By timing your wake-up to coincide with the end of a cycle (rather than during deep sleep), you're far less likely to experience sleep inertia. The 15-minute sleep latency buffer accounts for the average time it takes to fall asleep.

### Does the Habit Tracker sync across devices?

Your habit data is saved in your browser's local storage, which means it persists on that specific device. It does not sync across devices — this is intentional for privacy. For cross-device tracking, you can export your data and import it on another device.

### Can I use the Email Signature Generator for my entire team?

Yes. Generate a signature, copy the HTML, and share the template with team members. Each person can customize their own name, title, and contact details. Since everything runs locally, corporate email domains and branding never leave your environment.
