What is in Pulse today, and what is next
Everything below is either working now, working with a limit we have written down, or something we have not started. There are no version numbers because Pulse does not have versions: every change goes live when it is ready.
In the product today
Working end to end. Nothing on this list has a caveat, which is why the next list exists separately.
Pipeline board
LiveOne board per role, with your own stages. Add, rename, reorder and delete columns, and the record of who reached each stage survives the edit.
Candidates and companies
LiveOne record per person and per company, with every note and stage move on a single timeline, attributed to the teammate who made it.
Open a role from a pasted job description
LivePaste the brief you were sent. Pulse reads back the title, the location and the must-haves it actually found, and you correct anything before the role opens. It never invents a salary the brief did not state.
Sourcing
LiveFind people who are not in your database yet, with their current role, their employer and what does and does not fit the brief. Every reason quotes the record it was read from, and a reason that cannot quote one is not shown.
Shortlists
LiveBuild a shortlist from your pipeline and send your client a link they can open without an account. You choose what it shows before it goes.
The shared task list
LiveWhat the desk owes, who is carrying it, and what is already late. Add one by typing a sentence.
Reports
LiveWhere people leave the process, how long each stage takes, and which client is slowest to come back to you.
The BD strategist
LiveAsk about a market, a company or a role and get an answer with its sources listed. An answer it cannot source is refused rather than guessed.
Two factor authentication
LiveAn authenticator app plus single use recovery codes, shown once. Asked for again when you reset a password, not only when you sign in.
Built, with a limit worth knowing about
These are shipped and you can use them today. Each one has a boundary you would find on your own, so it is written down here instead.
Notification preferences
Live, with a limitChoose which events reach you in the app and which also reach your inbox, event by event, and mute everything for a while when you need to.
Email is on for a task coming due and for a request to read your inbox. Every other event is in the app unless you switch its email on.
LinkedIn publishing
Live, with a limitPlan posts on a calendar in your own voice, connect LinkedIn once, and publish from Pulse.
Text only. A post with an image attached publishes its text. Engagement figures come back only for posts Pulse sent, and an account without LinkedIn analytics reports no impressions at all, which we show as not reported rather than as zero.
What we are building next
A quarter is when we expect to start, not a date we have promised you. We build in the order agencies tell us hurts most, so this order changes. When it does, this page changes with it.
Paying for Pulse from inside Pulse
BuildingSubscribing, changing a card and finding an invoice, handled by a payment provider so card details never reach us. Pilot agencies are set up by hand until this is switched on.
A status page hosted away from the product
BuildingMoving the status page onto separate infrastructure, so it can still tell you what is wrong when the product is the thing that is wrong.
Booking interviews
LaterArranging an interview from the candidate record and having it land in your calendar. The calendar connection and the sending it needs are both in place now, so what is left is the booking itself.
Images and video on LinkedIn posts
LaterPublishing a post with its media attached rather than its text alone. It needs a different transport to the one publishing uses today.
SOC 2 Type II
LaterThe audit larger buyers ask for. It requires months of observed evidence, so the earliest honest answer is well after the founding pilot. What we hold and what we are deliberately not pursuing is on the security page.
Something missing that would decide it for you?
The order above comes from what agencies tell us hurts most. If the thing standing between you and using this is not on the list, that is worth knowing.
Judge it on your own desk.
The list above is what you would get today, limits included. A pilot is how you find out which half of it you actually need.
