Key takeaways
- 01 Our editorial score is 4.7/10: decent marks for the 90-day refund and simple ordering, low marks for evidence and transparency.
- 02 For $39 you get one short digital track (about 7 minutes, the seller says) plus up to four digital bonuses, with no subscription and nothing shipped.
- 03 The pitch promises luck, money, memory and more through 'gamma' activation. No published study tests this track, and the seller's Terms call its products 'for entertainment purposes only'.
- 04 The presenter uses the pen name Dr. Robert Lake, as the site's disclaimer states, and the Terms say testimonials may be acted, compensated and exceptional.
This is the genius song review we would have wanted before spending $39: one page covering what the product is, how it is pitched, what the science supports, what the small print says and how it scores on our method. We did not buy the track, so we cannot describe how it sounds. Our material: the full 39-minute sales presentation, its written /text/ version, the Terms of Service, the refund page and the ClickBank order form, which we went through on 9 October 2026.
About us: we publish independently, and the seller neither runs nor approves this page. When a reader clicks one of our buttons and orders, ClickBank may send us a referral fee; the price you pay stays the same. The score below follows the published method we use for every product.

What you get for $39
The Terms of Sale put it simply: “You are paying $39 today for The Genius Song.” The purchase is described as “a copyrighted digital article for personal use”, which means one user, no sharing and no reselling. On the order form it is marked as digital, with no shipping and no repeat billing, and no add-on item is pre-selected. Whether any upsell offers follow payment, we could not check without buying.
How the file reaches you is less clear. In the video, the track lands in your inbox within minutes. The /text/ page instead promises login details for a “Private Audio Portal” to stream from any device, yet its own FAQ tells buyers to download the track to a phone or computer. Our best summary: it arrives digitally, as a download, through a portal, or both, and the file type is never named.
The bonuses also vary by page. The video announces “three free bonuses” and goes on to describe four: The Genius Child, meant to help kids focus; a classic on drawing money into your life, said to be over 100 years old and to have inspired The Secret; a guided visualization made by someone the video calls a top-rated creator on Calm; and a five-habit sheet to print. The /text/ page advertises “4 free bonuses” worth $197 but lists three: the book, a “Genius Visualization” and a “Create Your Ideal Future” infographic.
Your order also puts your address on mailing lists run by HappyConsumerPublishing.com, which can carry other companies’ offers (law of attraction, numerology and the like). Every message includes a way to unsubscribe.
How the seller says it works
The man on screen goes by Dr. Robert Lake, a name the site’s footer admits is a pen name. He argues that adults’ “gamma” brain wave has gone “dormant” because of modern life. He calls gamma “the super brain wave” and says a sound wave using “brain entrainment” can switch it back on “by connecting several regions of your brain”. He mentions a clinic and a decades-long neuroscience career, and the /text/ page bills him as NASA-trained; with the real identity withheld, we could check none of it.
The opening promises a “seven second brain trick”, but what is sold is a 7-minute track, and no distinct seven-second step is ever shown. The promised outcomes are broad: sudden insights, faster learning, memory, luck, money and promotions, better relationships, children’s grades, and anecdotes about weight loss, quitting smoking and migraines. On timing, the video says it “starts working the very first time you listen”, that many customers notice a difference in two to three days, and that daily listeners see results within a couple of weeks.
Claims compared with the evidence
Along the way the video name-drops MIT, Princeton and Columbia, a research center in Berlin and a so-called double-blind study from Britain; the /text/ version replaces some of these with NASA and colleagues in Japan. We could not verify any of these as described. Here is how the main claims compare with research we could check.
| Seller’s claim | What the evidence shows |
|---|---|
| “MIT found that all lucky, wealthy, successful people have this one brain wave” | MIT’s Tsai lab has studied 40 Hz light and sound stimulation, chiefly in mice bred to mimic Alzheimer’s, plus a few small pilot studies in people. It is not about wealth or luck, and we found no study making this claim. |
| Gamma is dormant and the track reactivates it | Gamma rhythms (roughly 30 to 100 Hz) are a normal part of brain activity. No study measures what this track does to anyone’s brain. |
| Monks reach gamma states | Long-term meditators showed high-amplitude gamma in a 2004 PNAS study by Lutz and colleagues, after years of practice, not a recording. |
| 98% of children score at “creative genius” level | This traces to George Land’s creativity test, popularised in the 1992 book Breakpoint and Beyond. We found no peer-reviewed NASA paper. |
| Results within days | Pooled analyses of binaural-beat research (Garcia-Argibay, 2019; Ingendoh, 2023) find effects that are mixed, modest and brief. A 2020 lab study (Ross and Lopez) tested 40 Hz beats on one attention task. |
| Help with migraines, smoking or weight | Not a treatment for any condition. The site itself says the product “is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.” |
The seller’s own documents send mixed signals. The Terms claim that “All claims regarding brainwave entrainment, focus, and mental energy are substantiated by established scientific research”. The same Terms include a section titled “For Entertainment Purposes Only”, stating that “brain entrainment is not an exact science” and that “The products are provided for entertainment purposes only.” The 14-item reference list on the sales page mostly covers theta and general entrainment studies plus popular pieces (Inc.com, Medium, a TED talk). Oddly, the identical list appears on the seller’s Genius Wave page, even though this video is about gamma rather than theta.
The $39 price, the pressure tactics and the refund window
The order box shows “Regular Price: $200 / $100 / $49” and then “Today Just For $39”. In the video, $49 is described as over forty percent off, before a “special price” of $39 said to be available only through the video. These reference prices are the seller’s; we saw no evidence anyone paid them. The video adds urgency: the price is “not guaranteed beyond today”, your order is “set aside” but may go to someone else, there may be a waiting list. For a digital file, we read these as sales tactics.
The guarantee is the strongest part of the offer. The Terms say: “For Digital Products, you may get a refund on any purchase requested within 90 days of your initial purchase.” ClickBank’s order form repeats that 90-day limit. The video itself only promises a “one hundred percent ironclad” guarantee without naming a number of days.
Be careful with the site’s /TOS/refunds/ page. It is a leftover NeuroActivate policy (60 days, unopened bottles, a return address in Ohio) that cannot apply to a download. Ask for your refund through ClickBank instead, via clkbank.com or 1-800-390-6035, and keep the receipt email; the statement line reads CLKBANK*Genius Song. Product questions go to [email protected]. If a refund is refused within the window, the FTC explains how to dispute a card charge with your bank.
Our editorial score: 4.7 out of 10
This is our editorial score, set by our own method, not a rating from buyers. Six categories feed into it.
What you receive: 5/10
A single short track and up to four digital extras for a one-time fee, with no subscription. That is clear enough, but you cannot confirm the length, the format or whether you get a download or a portal before paying.
Evidence strength: 2/10
Gamma rhythms are real and 40 Hz research is interesting, but it is early and largely animal-based. Reviews of entrainment audio are mixed, and nothing tests this track. The seller’s own Terms frame the product as entertainment.
Transparency: 2/10
A pen-name presenter whose credentials cannot be checked; testimonials the Terms say may be acted, renamed, compensated or given by friends of the founders; customer counts that disagree (18,366 in one place, 19,389 in another); a refund page for a different product; a browser title reading “The Gamma Song”; a 2023 copyright line; and a reference list shared with another product.
Value: 5/10
$39 once is a modest sum, and the refund lowers the risk. Against that, the “regular” prices are anchors rather than real prices, and you are paying for one short file whose effects are unproven.
Guarantee and refund: 8/10
The refund period is spelled out twice, in the Terms and on ClickBank’s order page, and ClickBank processes the refunds itself. We took points off for the mismatched refund page and for a video that never states the number of days.
Ease of ordering: 6/10
ClickBank’s checkout is standard and access is immediate after payment. Against that: the order button only appears around 18 minutes into the video, the affiliate link opens a home page about a different product, and delivery is described two ways.
Safety and sensible use
These precautions are ours, not the seller’s. Play it quietly enough that it never feels loud. Because the routine has you shut your eyes, it belongs nowhere near a car or machinery. Anyone with epilepsy, past seizures or hearing difficulties should get a doctor’s view first. Keep any treatment you already have; a sales pitch should not change it.
Is it a fit for you?
| Worth a look if | Better skipped if |
|---|---|
| You like short relaxation audio and see $39 as a trial | You want a proven aid for memory, focus or mood |
| You will judge it by your own experience | You expect luck, money or a promotion from listening |
| You will track the 90-day window and request a refund if needed | You need published evidence before paying |
| You are fine with marketing emails you can unsubscribe from | You were looking for an app, a game or a Spotify track |
Where to order, if you decide to
Our buttons pass through ClickBank to the seller’s own domain. One quirk to know: the landing page you see first currently promotes another audio by the same seller, The Genius Wave, while the Genius Song presentation sits on the /video/ page of that domain. The two are marketed as separate items (a 12-minute theta session against a 7-minute gamma track), so read the product name on the order form before paying. Our quick guide sums up the key facts on one screen.
Final verdict
The Genius Song is cheap, easy to buy and backed by a real 90-day refund through ClickBank. Everything else, from the presenter to the testimonials to the research claims, either cannot be checked or is undercut by the seller’s own Terms. That is why it earns 4.7/10 from us. If you are curious, treat it as a $39 experiment, listen safely and keep your receipt. If you want a closer look at the testimonials themselves, our breakdown of the stories in the sales video goes through each one.

Frequently asked questions
How much does The Genius Song cost?
$39, paid once, according to both the Terms of Sale and the order box. The struck-through $200, $100 and $49 are reference prices set by the seller. Buyers outside the US see the sum converted into their own money with any local tax on top, so statements vary by country.
What score did you give it, and how was it worked out?
We rate it 4.7/10 overall. That figure averages six parts: evidence 2, transparency 2, what you receive 5, value 5, ease of ordering 6, and guarantee and refund 8. Our methodology page explains how each category is judged. It is our own rating, not a customer rating.
Has any study tested The Genius Song itself?
Not that we could find. Research exists on gamma rhythms, on 40 Hz stimulation (largely animal studies tied to Alzheimer's research) and on binaural beats, where reviews report mixed, small effects. None of it tests this particular track.
How does the track reach you after payment?
Digitally. The video speaks of an email with the track, the text page of a members' portal for streaming, and we could not confirm which one buyers actually get. No file format is stated. Nothing is shipped and there is no subscription.
Which bonuses come with it?
Up to four digital extras, depending on which seller page you read. The video promises three, then describes four: The Genius Child for kids, an old classic on wealth, a guided visualization linked to a Calm creator, and a habits printout. The /text/ page promises four and shows three.
How do I get my money back?
Request the refund within 90 days of purchase through ClickBank, using the order number in your receipt email or ClickBank's support line 1-800-390-6035 shown at checkout. Skip the site's /TOS/refunds/ page; its 60-day bottle rules were written for a different product.
Is it safe to listen to?
Use it at a gentle volume, never in a car or while handling machinery, and get medical advice first if you have epilepsy, have had seizures or have trouble with your hearing. That is our own caution. It is not a treatment for any condition.
Is The Genius Song an app or a streaming playlist?
No. It is a single audio product sold through the seller's own site and ClickBank. It is not an app or a game, and the seller says it is not offered on Spotify, YouTube or Amazon.
