Pulse — Two modes. One goal — real connection. Flash Map for quick meetups, or a scrollable video feed without swipe fatigue. A bot and Synthesis game help you talk and vibe. Free now? No likes or matches needed in Flash. Tap “Flash” and a live map lights up for 30 minutes*, showing people around you who are also free — right now. Join a 1-on-1 or group chat instantly. You’ve got 30 minutes* from “hey” to a real-life meetup — whether you’re new in town and craving a museum, or your friends bailed on the bar plan. (*Each Flash session lasts 30 minutes.) Your safety matters. We never show your exact location. Available: Report, Block, SOS. Not in a rush? Scroll a vertical feed with full-screen videos and photos. No swipe fatigue. No need to rate every profile. Tired of toxic messages? You rate first messages — we push bad actors to the bottom of the feed. Hate starting first? Pulsik-bot will gently start the chat for you. No pressure, no spam. Want to connect deeper? Try “Synthesis” — a timed game mode designed for real connection. Don’t know what to say? Pulsik suggests the perfect topic based on their interests and profile. Starting a convo has never been easier. No paywalls. No guesswork. See who liked you — instantly. Download Pulse and go from “Hi” to IRL in 30 minutes*. (*Flash Map session duration) We don’t share your data. You can erase everything at any time.
