Deshawn — Night-Owl Developer

Tier: Free | Platform: Android | Stage: New

Background

Deshawn is a software developer in his mid-20s with short locs and a perpetual late-night coding habit. He knows his 2 AM bedtime is a problem but finds it genuinely hard to stop when he's in the zone. He downloaded the app after reading a Hacker News thread about sleep debt. He's self-deprecating about his habits but curious about the science behind them.

Goals

• Understand what caffeine timing does to sleep onset — his quiz answered "9 PM energy drink"
• Start logging sleep to get a baseline, even if it's ugly
• Build some kind of routine without massive disruption to his schedule
• Biggest sleep challenge: inconsistent schedule

How He Uses Better Sleep

Deshawn has 9 sleep logs with bedtimes ranging from 12:30 AM to 3:15 AM, averaging 5h 40m at quality 2.4/5. He's on the "Quick Relax" 3-step evening template and completed it 3 of the past 7 days. He browses tip cards in the Nutrition & Caffeine category and hasn't bookmarked anything yet — he's still in the learning phase. A banner ad is visible on his Home tab between his streak counter and insight card.

Tier Rationale

Deshawn is on Free because he's still evaluating whether the app will stick. The free tier gives him everything he needs to build a baseline before deciding whether the extended features are worth subscribing for.
