Pulses App

Group heart rate monitoring and tests for teams and gyms

Pulses App lets you monitor heart rate live for groups and teams on iPad, iPhone, or Mac (Android planned for Q1 2026).

It’s built for spinning classes, HIIT, Hyrox-style training, and team sports, giving coaches and instructors clear, real-time insight into training intensity — without costly hardware or complex setups.

Pulses works with any Bluetooth-compatible heart rate band or watch. Start a session in seconds, track effort across the whole group, and review performance afterwards.

A practical tool for fitness instructors and sports coaches who want better control of training load and consistency across sessions.

Pulses App was built from a simple problem we saw every day: coaches and instructors wanted to understand training intensity for groups, but existing solutions were either too complex or too expensive. We started with live heart rate monitoring and focused on making it fast, reliable, and hardware-agnostic. Over time, features like fitness tests, athlete pages, and leaderboards were added based on real feedback from coaches, gyms, and teams using the app in daily training. We’re actively listening and improving Pulses together with our users — feedback is always welcome.
