Many ovens have proof settings but they are basically just turning the light on and maybe running the circulator fan. That’s basically all I’ve needed for the minority of recipes I use that kinda require that. Most recipes don’t need anything other than time and a moderately temperatured kitchen, like the difference between 72°F and 80°F for most recipes just means a little extra time at the lower temperature.
Basically what I’m saying is don’t buy a fancy proofing set up, maybe use the oven with the light bulb on, but probably just make sure you leave good time / wake up earlier ;-).
