I have the latest version of iOS on an iPhone 13 and use the iOS Clock app to set alarms throughout the day to remind me of meetings because that requires me to physically stop the alarm and not risk missing a momentary alert tone.

I'm seeking a way to set an alarm with ascending volume so that it's more gentle and not as disruptive.
My understanding is that there isn't a setting for this in iOS.

My question:
Does anyone know of a gentle alert tone I can purchase in the Apple Tone Store that will start out quieter and than gradually increase in volume? Or otherwise any other way to achieve this?

I keep alerts at maximum volume and don't want to change this in case my phone is in the other room. With the solution I'm seeking mentioned above, it would eventually reach that maximum volume.
 
Clarification: My understanding is that the Bedtime/Sleep features will not work for this as though they offer an ascending option, they cannot be set for multiple times throughout the day.
 
Go to the iTunes Store and search for ascending tone. You will find quite a few :)

Thanks for your reply! I've seen these, but all that come up in the search for "ascending" appear to be ascending in musical tone and not volume.

Do you happen to have a link to any that ascend in volume?
