Same wake time every day within a narrow window, where a steady morning anchor keeps the body clock from drifting so sleep pressure and circadian timing line up more predictably each night.
The most defensible target is improved wake-time regularity, with possible short-term subjective sleepiness or diary-continuity benefits in people whose current schedule is irregular.
Consistent Wake Time is best framed as a modest, sleep-opportunity-preserving timing experiment with limited direct evidence and a larger adjacent regularity literature.
No extracted source establishes a pure wake-time-only protocol as a treatment for insomnia, disease prevention, metabolic risk, cardiovascular risk, mortality, or sleep-stage improvement.
Short intervention sources support feasibility and some subjective or autonomic signals, but most regularize broader sleep-wake timing rather than wake time alone and preserve sleep opportunity.

Canonical Consistent Wake Time source used as direct or near-direct protocol evidence for sleep/wake timing regularization: Behavioral and psychophysiological correlates of irregularity in chronic sleep routines.
Wake-time-specific observational context: maintaining a consistent wake time was associated with subjective sleep outcomes in young adult drinkers with insomnia, but the study was not a randomized wake-time intervention and corrected actigraphy sleep-efficiency findings were null.
Adjacent timing-variability evidence: this study manipulated variable sleep duration and bedtime while wake time was fixed, so it should not be used as direct evidence for a wake-time-only intervention.
Measurement sources support tracking final awakening, time out of bed, wake-time variability, sleep regularity, and diary/wearable caveats; they do not make consumer devices diagnostic.
