Health Tracking, Thoughtfully Designed

At Pulse, we believe health tracking should enhance your wellness journey, not complicate it. This disclaimer outlines our approach and helps set clear expectations about what our technology can and cannot do.

Our Purpose and Approach

Pulse transforms the tedious task of health logging into natural conversation. We've built sophisticated pattern recognition that learns your habits and preferences, making tracking progressively easier over time.

Core Capabilities

  • Natural Language Processing: Convert conversational input into structured health data
  • Pattern Recognition: Identify trends and habits in your wellness journey
  • Adaptive Learning: Remember your preferences to streamline future logging
  • Progress Tracking: Monitor consistency and movement toward your goals

Important Distinctions

  • Technology, Not Medicine: Our insights derive from data analysis, not clinical expertise
  • Patterns, Not Diagnoses: We identify trends, not medical conditions
  • Support, Not Treatment: We facilitate tracking, not therapeutic interventions
  • Information, Not Emergency Care: We're designed for daily wellness, not crisis response

Understanding Our AI Technology

Our conversational AI represents advanced pattern matching combined with nutritional databases and behavioral analysis. When Pulse suggests meal options or notes patterns, these insights come from:

  • Analysis of your historical data
  • Comparison with nutritional guidelines
  • Recognition of your stated preferences
  • Behavioral pattern identification

These are computational observations, not medical recommendations.

Health and Safety Considerations

Medical Emergencies

If you experience a medical emergency, please seek immediate professional help by calling 911 or your local emergency services.

Professional Healthcare Guidance

We encourage you to consult healthcare professionals when:

  • Making significant dietary changes
  • Beginning new exercise programs
  • Managing chronic conditions
  • Experiencing health concerns
  • Needing medical advice

Special Populations

Youth Users (17-18)

While our platform requires users to be 17+, we encourage those under 18 to involve parents or guardians in their wellness journey.

Pregnancy and Nursing

During pregnancy and nursing, nutritional needs change significantly. Please use Pulse as a tracking tool while following your healthcare provider's specific guidance.

Chronic Conditions

For users managing conditions like diabetes or cardiovascular disease, Pulse serves as a tracking companion to complement—never replace—professional medical care.

Mental Health Considerations

We design our features to promote balanced, sustainable habits. If tracking becomes stressful or triggers concerning behaviors, we encourage taking a break and seeking appropriate support.
