For people who hate productivity apps
Pulse hooks into your calendar, email, and reminders — then lets you manage all of it by just talking to it. No planners, no dashboards to maintain, no "system." It just tells you what you're forgetting.
See How It Works ↓The Problem
Google Calendar. Gmail. Apple Reminders. Canvas. Slack. You're supposed to check all of these every single morning just to know what's going on in your own life? Stuff falls through the cracks — not because you don't care, but because it's way too much to keep track of.
And most "productivity apps" just make it worse. Cool, now you have another app to forget to check.
Who It's For
If you love Notion templates and color-coded planners, good for you. Pulse is for everyone who doesn't.
"I literally finished the assignment. I just forgot to submit it on Canvas. That's so dumb."
The College Student
"I have three calendars and two email accounts. I missed a meeting yesterday that I 100% knew about."
The Working Professional
"I don't want a system. I just want something to yell at me when I'm forgetting stuff."
Literally Everyone
The Product
Pulse grabs your calendar, email, reminders, and deadlines — throws them all on one screen — and lets you manage everything by just talking to it. That's it.
"What do I have today?" "Remind me to call Mom at 5." "Am I forgetting anything?" You talk, Pulse handles it. No menus, no tapping around.
Calendar, reminders, emails, deadlines — all right there when you open the app. No digging through a bunch of different apps like a maniac.
Google Calendar, Gmail, Apple Calendar, Apple Reminders — connect them once and forget about it. Canvas LMS coming soon.
Morning briefings, email digests, deadline alerts. They happen automatically in the background. You literally don't have to do anything.
Take a picture of a syllabus, a whiteboard, whatever. Pulse reads it and tells you what matters. Pretty sick honestly.
Sign in with Apple. Your tokens live in Keychain. Pulse only sees what you connect — your data isn't going anywhere. We don't sell any of it. Ever.
How It Works
One tap. Done. No passwords, no forms, no "verify your email" nonsense.
Hit allow on your calendar, reminders, and Google account. 30 seconds max.
"What's happening this week?" "Schedule lunch with Jake." "Do I have any emails I should care about?"
Automations run in the background. Your dashboard stays updated. You stop forgetting stuff. That's the whole point.
Under the Hood
Pulse has a live backend, a real database, actual user accounts, and a deployed AI agent. It's not a pitch deck — it's working software you can download right now.
Your Data
Pulse connects to your apps to help you — not to harvest your information. We don't sell it, we don't share it, we don't run ads against it. Your calendar, emails, and reminders stay between you and Pulse. That's it.
The Story
Sophomore — David Eccles School of Business, University of Utah
I don't use Notion. I don't time-block my day. I don't have a "morning routine." I'm a sophomore taking way too many classes and I kept missing Canvas deadlines — not because I didn't do the work, but because I literally forgot to submit it. I was checking Google Calendar, Gmail, Apple Reminders, and Canvas every morning and still dropping the ball. So I built Pulse. One app that connects everything and just tells me what I need to know. I built the app I wish existed when I was a freshman getting wrecked by my own disorganization.
Roadmap
Pulse is done. Like, actually done — not "we have a landing page" done. Here's what's next.
Friends, classmates, and anyone at the U who wants to try it. Happening now — spring 2026.
Go public. Free tier, real users, real feedback. This is the 90-day Get Seeded milestone.
Canvas LMS integration, word of mouth at U of U, and eventually other schools. If you're a student, this app is for you.
Slack, Outlook, work calendars. Anyone who's juggling too many apps and sick of it — that's Pulse's market.
Get Seeded — Lassonde Entrepreneur Institute
Pulse is applying for Get Seeded funding to cover server costs and get this thing live on the App Store. The app is built — it just needs gas money.
