Soma NPT Pricing

1. You Pay for Athlete Access via Soma Analytics: 49 Swiss Francs per user per month.

Scenario: If you manage a team of 10 athletes, you would pay 499 Swiss Francs per month for Soma Analytics to monitor all athletes and an additional 490 Swiss Francs per month (49 Swiss Francs x 10 users) for their access to Soma NPT. This totals 989 Swiss Francs per month to fully integrate and manage your team.

2. Athletes Download and Pay via iTunes: The users can provide you with their Soma ID to monitor and plan their training.

Scenario: If you prefer your athletes to manage their own subscription, each athlete can download Soma NPT from iTunes and pay 49 Swiss Francs per month individually. They will then provide you with their Soma ID. You would still pay 499 Swiss Francs per month for Soma Analytics to monitor an unlimited number of users, but the cost of Soma NPT will be covered by the athletes themselves.

Mean & MoM Data

Monitor an athlete’s mean data as well as their minute-by-minute data to identify cognitive and physiological breaking points. Simply select the task to gain deep insights into their mean and minute-on-minute (MoM) cognitive and physiological performance.

While mean data is the standard, Soma takes data analysis to a whole new level with Minute-on-Minute (MoM) data.

MoM data is like having a high-definition camera zooming in on every minute of your athlete’s performance, not just the highlights. MoM doesn’t just skim the surface like average data. Instead, it dives deep, capturing every ebb and flow in cognitive and physiological metrics, minute by minute. This approach is like switching from a general synopsis to a detailed, moment-by-moment narrative of an athlete’s performance journey.

MoM allows you to spot critical details such as a mid-task dip in Heart Rate Variability (HRV), indicating cognitive overload, or fluctuations in reaction times and variation, pointing to potential fatigue or inconsistent performance. This level of detail transforms MoM from a mere feature into a cornerstone of insightful, nuanced athlete analysis.


Overview

Soma’s overview feature provides a unified snapshot of session data, bringing together all related task details into a single view for each session. This enables you to view the average metrics across the entire session, offering a comprehensive view of performance.

With this tool, you can analyze average performance metrics—like reaction time, speed, accuracy, variation, and physiological data within sessions. Such analysis helps identify trends that might not be obvious when looking at the data for each task separately.


Trends

Soma's trend feature allows for the tracking of an athlete's data throughout their training plan. It enables the filtering of tasks by cognitive and physiological metrics, relevant training modes, and task duration.

Metrics include:

  • Reaction Time

  • Speed

  • Variation

  • Accuracy

  • RCS

  • BPM

  • rMSSD

  • SDNN

  • RME

  • RMF

  • RPE

  • VAS-F


Profiling

Soma's profiling feature evaluates cognitive tasks and categorizes performance as either average, elite, or poor. Each time an athlete completes a task, the system updates their performance profile, providing a clear view of the areas where they excelled, performed averagely, or struggled.

The metrics assessed include:

  • Reaction Time

  • Speed

  • Variation

  • Accuracy

  • RCS

This comprehensive overview offers quick and easily understandable feedback on an athlete’s performance. These categories are instrumental in gauging their cognitive performance levels.

The designations of elite, average, and poor are general guidelines. The task's length and intensity also influence these evaluations.


Baselines

Soma’s Baselines feature provides an in-depth analysis of each task and overall baseline performance, making it easy to identify strengths and weaknesses. With Soma’s Auto Baseline feature, the process of comparing baseline data is streamlined and automated, eliminating the need for manual data analysis.

Plan Builder

What sets Soma apart is its Plan Builder, which allows you to create dynamic cognitive training plans with complete parameter manipulation. Choose task durations of 1, 3, 5, 10, 20, or 30 minutes, and set intensities from 10% to 100%. Easily drag and drop tasks into the schedule pre-session, in-session, or post-session, ensuring athletes know exactly when to perform their cognitive training tasks. Training plans can be seamlessly integrated into any environment.

With Soma’s Plan Builder, you can send plans directly to an individual’s device and monitor them via Soma Analytics from anywhere in the world. Create training plans, monitor fatigue, assess concussions, and more.

Additionally, Soma’s Plan Builder allows access to unique training modes that can be layered on top of tasks.
