This site publishes information about binaural beats and brainwave entrainment — a subject where confident-sounding claims are easy to make and hard to check. This page explains who writes it, what we are and are not qualified to tell you, and how to get something corrected.
I am not a doctor, psychologist, audiologist or neuroscientist, and I do not hold a clinical qualification of any kind.
No clinician reviews the content on this site. Some health publishers display a "medically reviewed by" line. We do not, because it would not be true. What you are reading is written by a software developer who reads the source studies carefully — which is a real but limited kind of expertise, and you should weigh it accordingly.
This is also why every health page on this site frames binaural beats as a complementary wellness tool rather than a treatment, names established first-line care such as CBT or talking to your doctor, and tells you not to change prescribed medication based on anything you read here.
Where a claim rests on published research, we name the study so you can check it yourself. The evidence anchors used most often on this site are Oster's 1973 Scientific American paper describing auditory beats, Lane et al. (1998) on vigilance, Wahbeh et al. (2007), Padmanabhan et al. (2005) on pre-operative anxiety, and the Garcia-Argibay et al. (2019) meta-analysis, which found a small-to-moderate effect on state anxiety.
No efficacy percentage appears on this site unless it comes from a specific published result, attributed on the page. Claims like "reduces anxiety by 45%" are trivially easy to write and impossible to support; where earlier versions of these pages carried figures like that, they have been removed and replaced with honest, non-numeric language. The same rule applies to our own product: we do not publish user counts, download figures or star ratings, because the honest numbers are small and the alternative is to make some up.
Parts of this subject — the Solfeggio frequencies, 432 Hz tuning, chakra associations — are cultural and spiritual traditions, not findings. Those pages exist because people search for them and deserve a straight answer. They describe what the tradition claims, then say plainly what evidence does and does not exist. We do not assert a spiritual claim as a scientific fact, and we do not sneer at readers for being interested in it.
Brainwave entrainment research is real but uneven: small samples, inconsistent protocols, and effects that vary a lot between individuals. Where the literature is thin or contradictory, the page says so rather than picking the flattering study.
Feature descriptions — preset counts, ambient sounds, the tools in the Frequency Lab — are checked against the shipping app and the store listings, not against marketing copy or old planning documents. If a number on this site disagrees with the app, the app is right and the page is wrong; please tell us.
This site carries third-party advertising, and the app is a paid product. Advertisers have no input into what we publish, and no page recommends the app on the basis of evidence we would not accept from a competitor. Where the honest answer is that a free tool or a different approach suits you better — brown noise for sleeping through the night, or therapy for an anxiety disorder — the page says so. See our Privacy Policy for how advertising data is handled.
If we have misread a study, overstated a result, or cited something that does not say what we claim it says, we want to know. Email [email protected] with the page and the specific sentence. Corrections that hold up are made to the page, and pages carry a last-reviewed date so you can see when they were last checked.
