Status Log
Async morning standup in writing. Three lines per person, public team feed, manager-safe sentiment recap — the raw chat stays with the employee. No meetings, no AI, no chat threads.
Product tour
Eight surfaces,
one feeling: seen.
Every surface is about a person, not a process. Status, kudos, growth, rest, workload — written in seconds, read in seconds. Hours and payroll live in the tools built for them. We don't compete there.
What's inside
Eight surfaces. One feeling: seen.
Pulse is narrow on purpose. Every surface is about how a person is doing — what they're working on, what they're celebrating, where they're stretched. Payroll, timesheets and project allocation belong in tools built for them. We don't compete there.
Growth
Achievements, challenges, skill paths and kudos coins on one canvas. Continuous signal, not yearly reviews. The score is built from what people actually do, not from a manager filling in a form.
Kudos
Peer recognition with reasons attached. Coins between teammates, confetti on send, leaderboards that reset weekly, monthly and yearly. Lives inside Growth.
Moments
Birthdays, work anniversaries and the kudos ticker on one continuous feed. Company memory rendered as a screen.
Workload check-in
One tap each Friday — light / balanced / heavy / overloaded. Eight-week sparkline trend. Your manager sees the trend, not the individual answers. Hours and project allocation live in your other tool.
Leave journal
Personal record of the days off you took. No approval workflow, no pending state — you log it, it's logged. Balance visible to you alone, for your own picture.
Pulse
Anonymous weekly vibe heatmap. Shows only when at least three people answer. Embedded inside Status Log so it stays part of the conversation, not a survey to dread.
People Insights
Engagement, sentiment, kudos volume, growth trend, Pulse vibe over time. Reports about how people are doing — not about cost per hire or margin.
See it moving.

Built for the IC. Quiet for everyone else.
The IC drives.
Everyone else rides.
Pulse is adopted bottoms-up: the IC self-installs, posts status, sends a kudos. Their team joins. Their manager finds the Friday recap suddenly works. By month three the whole company is on it. The surfaces below are how each role enters — the IC first, the rest in their wake.
E
Employee
The hero. Post status, send kudos, check in on workload, log days off — the whole product is built around your first ten minutes.
M
Manager
Pulled in once the team is already using Pulse. You read the sentiment recap, never the raw chat. The aggregate is the contract.
H
HR
Arrives last. Curates People Insights, watches trends. The tool was rolled out before you noticed — that's the point.
A
Admin
Usually the IC who self-hosted, now wearing a second hat. Modules, persona setup, audit log — and "View as".
F
Finance
Honest answer: this isn't for you. Keep your existing payroll tool. Pulse is the people half, on purpose.
