Your feelings stay here
What you get
Pulse was built for exactly this.
The core features that make Pulse different from the generic alternatives.
On-device only
Your moods live in encrypted storage on your phone — no account to create, and you can log with airplane mode on.
Two-tap logging
Pick a quadrant on the energy-by-pleasantness mood meter, then a word — the whole daily check-in clears in under five seconds.
Insight engine
After about two weeks of entries, Pulse surfaces correlations and weekly patterns instead of just handing you a logbook.
Calendar mosaic
A color-per-day grid that lets you see a month of feeling at a glance.
Honest streaks
The counter tracks your last seven days, so missing one day never wipes out months of progress.
Encrypted iCloud sync
Optional sync across your devices through Apple's private database — even Apple can't read it.
How it works
Three steps. No account. No tracking.
01
Download once
Install Pulse from the App Store when the waitlist opens. No account setup — it works the moment you open it.
02
Use for ninety seconds a day
The product is designed so the useful thing takes less than two minutes. Anything longer and you stop. We know.
03
Notice what changes
Patterns surface after two to three weeks. The data is yours alone — no cloud, no report to anyone.
Not shipped yet
Notify me when Pulse ships.
One email when it lands on the App Store. No drip sequence.
No spam. No tracking. Email only — unsubscribe with one click.
