Explore Pulse

Explore every part of Pulse.

Each feature has its own page, showing the real interface on example data — the heatmap, the stats, the leaderboard and more.

Keyboard heatmap The keys you lean on — and miss. Statistics WPM, accuracy & AI rate over time. Leaderboard Rank weekly, by language & persona. Typing test A clean 30-second WPM test. Keystroke counter Count every key you press. Average typing speed What’s a good WPM, really?

AI Rate · Pulse Pro

Your hands. Not your tools.

Paste, autocomplete, snippets and AI all inflate typing numbers. Pulse detects synthetic keystrokes and strips them out — so your WPM reflects what you actually typed. No other typing tracker measures this.

18% of those keystrokes were AI / autocomplete — filtered out.

It counts your keystrokes.
It never reads them.

Pulse records that you pressed a key and when — never the letters, words or passwords. Your stats live in a local database on your Mac. No account, no cloud, no telemetry.
