Pulse by Brian on Base

See what actually moves your results.

Pulse puts your training, nutrition, wearables, body metrics and protocols on one chart — so you can finally see what's working. It's also a complete business OS for trainers: build programs, coach clients, and get paid at 0% platform fees. Observational by design, private by default — your data is yours to keep or delete.

Core pillars

  • The Composite Chart

    Your weight, lean mass, biomarkers and performance on one timeline — with your protocols shaded behind them, so cause and effect finally line up.

  • Pulses

    Trainer-made workout tiles: 6–10 short, music-driven clips that flow together and finish with a paired recovery meal. Preview the GIF, buy the Pulse, drop it into your routine.

  • Trainers & Coaches

    Hire a real trainer or coach inside Pulse — programs, messaging, local meetups, video sessions and Twitch-style live workouts you follow at home.

  • Capture Everything

    Workouts, nutrition, body metrics, GPS runs and your watch/ring/scale — logged in seconds, working fully offline.

  • AI Trainer & Nutritionist

    A free-tier AI coach that reads your recent data for behavior-level guidance — never diagnoses, never doses, always points health questions to your physician.

  • Privacy by Design

    HIPAA-grade controls, one-tap deletion, and health data that never reaches an ad or analytics SDK. Yours to keep, yours to delete.
