Learning requires the right environment.

But for many, the university experience is defined by invisible barriers. Navigating a campus with unpredictable sensory inputs creates physical friction, while fast-paced lectures with no structure create cognitive overload.

Cicely helps you find your space and capture what matters.

A screenshot of the Cicely mobile app interface, designed to provide real-time sensory awareness. The screen is titled "Hello, Alex" and shows a primary radar-like display that visualizes the direction and type of nearby sounds. Below the radar, a "Detected Sounds" list provides details. One card identifies a 'Group conversation' at a moderate distance with 70% intensity. Another identifies 'Background music' nearby at 40% intensity. The bottom navigation bar shows the app's core features: Aware, Talk, Scout, Study, and Alerts.

Built with, not for.

We started by listening. In partnership with University College London, we're building Cicely based on the real, lived experiences of students and staff. Here are some of the voices shaping our platform.
