Typography.

A custom font is not shipped. The product and marketing site use the system font stack on every platform. This keeps the bundle small, the layout predictable across locales, and the rendering dependent only on the reader's own OS settings.

About Pulse ~ 50 words

Pulse is a local-first AI side panel for Windows and Android. It connects to on-device language models through Ollama, providing an alternative to cloud assistants where conversations, files, and notes stay on the device. Source code is published on GitHub under the Apache License, Version 2.0, with voice input and structured notes built in.

Pulse in detail ~ 100 words

Pulse is a desktop and mobile application for working with local language models. The interface is a single side panel that opens on demand, responds to a configurable hotkey, and stays out of the way otherwise. Pulse routes prompts to Ollama, the local model runtime. No conversation is sent to a remote server and no telemetry leaves the device by default. Voice input, code-aware text editing, and a notes feature with backlinks round out the product. The desktop application is built with Tauri 2, a Rust-based alternative to Electron. The mobile client is built natively for Android. Pulse is available for Windows and Android. Source code is published on GitHub under the Apache License, Version 2.0.

Technical overview ~ 200 words

Architecture

Pulse is built with Tauri 2, a Rust-based toolkit for cross-platform native applications. The Windows desktop client ships as a 12 MB installer and starts in under one second on a modern laptop. The Android client is built natively and published in APK form.

Privacy

Pulse does not require an account. Conversations, notes, and configuration stay on the device by default. Telemetry is off unless the user opts in during first run. The product works fully offline when paired with a local Ollama install and a self-hosted model.

Ollama integration

Pulse communicates with Ollama over a local loopback HTTP connection on port 11434. No external API key, no cloud round-trip, no rate limit. The Ollama project is maintained separately; Pulse does not bundle it.

Notes

Pulse includes a notes feature with Markdown rendering, code-block syntax highlighting, and bidirectional links between notes. Notes are stored locally in plain text and Markdown files.

Source

All Pulse repositories (pulse-landing, pulse-android, pulse-desktop) are published on GitHub under the Apache License, Version 2.0. Issues and pull requests are accepted through the standard GitHub workflow.

Target users

Pulse is designed for users who prefer local tooling and want an alternative to cloud AI subscriptions.
