Built by a retail investor, for retail investors

Stop Guessing. Start Investing.

PulseIndex is not a robo-advisor. It never touches your money, never connects to your brokerage, and never makes a trade on your behalf. It's an analysis, education, and strategy tool — built to help you make better decisions yourself.

Not a robo-advisor. Not a trading tool.
Not financial advice.

Robo-Advisors
  • Connect to your brokerage account
  • Manage your money for you
  • Buy and sell on your behalf
  • Hold custody of your data
PulseIndex
  • You upload your own CSV export
  • You stay in complete control
  • You execute trades in your own brokerage
  • Your data never leaves your browser

PulseIndex gives you the signals, rules, and education to make better decisions yourself. You bring the strategy. PulseIndex gives it structure. Your brokerage executes it. That's the whole model.

Make smart entries.
Keep profits with strategic exits.

Most investors find great entry points. The problem is never the entry — it's the exit. Greed keeps you in too long. Fear locks you out at the bottom. Without a system, emotion runs the show. Every time.

❌ Without PulseIndex

Emotion runs the show

Your investment climbs and you tell yourself you'll take profits soon. Then it pulls back and you convince yourself it'll recover. Your gain becomes a loss. Your loss becomes a long-term hold you never planned for.

✓ With PulseIndex

Rules run the show

You set an order when calm and thinking clearly — to protect gains at the peak and define exactly where you'll re-enter. When the market moves, your rules execute. You pocket gains and step back in with a clear plan. Repeat.

EXIT RE-ENTER
Why This Exists
"I made great entries in the April 2020 crash. Then I rode the gains back down to losses because there was no system enforcing an exit. I built PulseIndex to be the calm, disciplined version of me when I can't be."
— Founder, PulseIndex

PulseIndex was built for personal use first. No VC funding. No bank behind it. No agenda beyond solving the problem it was designed to solve. That's the grassroots promise — and it doesn't change.

Analysis. Education. Strategy.
All in one place.

How is PulseIndex different from a robo-advisor?

Robo-advisors manage your money for you — they connect to your account, make allocation decisions, and execute trades on your behalf. PulseIndex does none of that. It analyzes your portfolio data (which you upload yourself), surfaces signals and rules, and helps you make better decisions. You execute everything in your own brokerage. PulseIndex never touches your money.

Does PulseIndex connect to my brokerage account?

No. PulseIndex never connects to your brokerage. You export a transaction history CSV from your brokerage and upload it to PulseIndex — your data is analyzed entirely in your browser and never transmitted to our servers. No login credentials, no account access, no API connection. Ever.

Does PulseIndex buy or sell anything on my behalf?

No. PulseIndex generates order specifications — exactly what order to place, at what threshold, for which position — and you enter those orders yourself in your brokerage. The tool is the system. You are the executor. That's intentional.

Is this financial advice?

No. PulseIndex is an analysis, education, and strategy tool. It surfaces signals, explains context, and helps you apply rules you set yourself. It does not tell you what to buy, predict market outcomes, or provide personalized investment recommendations. For advice, consult a licensed financial advisor.

What kind of accounts and portfolios does PulseIndex work with?

PulseIndex is designed for self-directed investors managing held equity and ETF positions — across individual taxable brokerage accounts, retirement accounts (Roth IRA, Traditional IRA, SEP-IRA, 401k), HSA investment accounts, college savings accounts (529 with brokerage options), and LLC or business brokerage accounts. It requires a portfolio with held positions over time. It is not designed for futures, forex, or options-only accounts.
