Alora Wake is a smart alarm for iPhone, built around a simple promise: it wakes you gently, and it always wakes you. Your own Apple Music plays you out of sleep, a simulated sunrise softens the transition, and a morning briefing — weather, calendar, commute — is ready the moment you are. It runs on your device, and your data stays there.

Mark Kawecki, founder of Alora Wake

Mark Kawecki

Mark Kawecki is Alora Wake’s founder and only developer. A pilot and veteran with more than thirty years in aviation, he spent his career in a world where waking up on time isn’t optional — and spent seventeen months building an alarm that treats it that way. Alora Wake shipped in June 2026 as a solo project: no team, no investors, just a working alarm and a calmer morning.
