Soma NPT

  • iPhone

  • iPad

49 Swiss Francs per month/user

Soma NPT is trusted by professional athletes, the military, and leading universities worldwide. It has been validated through peer-reviewed research and clinical trials as an effective cognitive training tool.

Soma NPT is utilized for a variety of purposes, including:

  • Brain Endurance Training (BET)


  • Mental Fatigue
 Monitoring

  • Concussion Management


  • Mental Toughness Training


  • Cognitive Priming

  • Cognitive Training for the Elderly


  • Evaluating the Effectiveness of Cognitive Supplements


Soma NPT allows users to train at any time, integrating seamlessly into any environment.

There are two options for purchasing Soma NPT, each catering to different user needs.

Option One

Direct purchase via iTunes.

This option is suitable for individuals or small businesses that do not wish to pay for an individual's access to Soma NPT.

Option Two

Soma Analytics account holders purchase and distribute Soma IDs to individuals.

This option is ideal for organizations managing multiple users who are covering the cost of Soma NPT access.

Get Started

Getting started with Soma is simple. Once you have purchased access to Soma Analytics, you have two options for Soma NPT:

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.
