Sleep Reset vs CBT-i Coach

Sleep Reset
You take a sleep assessment, then follow short daily CBT-I lessons in the app, keep a sleep diary and message a human sleep coach for guidance.
CBT-i Coach
CBT-i Coach gives you a sleep diary, help setting a sleep schedule, sleep education and relaxation exercises, based on CBT for insomnia.
