Boson clouds formed via superradiance around spinning black holes offer a novel gravitational-wave probe for weakly interacting ultralight particles. We show that such gravitational atoms can undergo a self-stimulated avalanche: a coherent quadrupolar transition is seeded and then amplified by gravitational radiation feedback. We formulate an effective two-level description, validated by numerical simulations, that captures the logistic population transfer and the resulting delayed gravitational-wave pulse with a characteristic envelope, and assess its detectability with future detectors. As a gravitational analogue of superfluorescence, this cooperative emission mechanism opens a new observational avenue into the ultralight dark sector.
