This sounds super interesting! Dumb question maybe, but how is this different from just using an Oura ring or a WHOOP + journaling?

Like is the value more in how you visualize the data, or is it actually doing something different behind the scenes?



hey - great question i used whoops journalling feature for several montths.

what I found was that it often throws 5+ variables into one “correlation”, creating a lot of noise where it ends up suggesting X impacting your sleep, when it could have actually been Y.

Pulse is built for n=1 experiments: you isolate a habit (like less screen time, consistent wake up time, caffeine impact), test it, and see if it actually helps your sleep better or not. think self-controlled studies


That does sound great! I am a big fan of data, but the data needs to be read in a correct way ofcourse, otherwise is useless.

Hyped to try this out - curious to know exactly at what time I need to stop drinking coffee..
