WhatPulse

WhatPulse is a streamlined operating system monitoring utility that provides all Windows PC users with detailed reports on the usage of their hardware, including tracking of keyboard and mouse actions, internet transfer speeds, system uptimes, and many other informative parameters that Windows OS does not surface for use by regular users.

Track your computing habits, enhance productivity, and compare your progress with friends.



The desktop app is lightweight, fast, stable, and can provide incredible insights into the current operational state of any modern PC, including desktops and laptops of all performance levels.

The app can be used not only to judge the current status of the PC but also to provide detailed reports on productivity levels, helping individual users, teams, and project leaders to detect possible ways to optimize productivity sessions and accelerate workflows.

Features

The basic function of WhatPulse is to provide users with detailed reports about PC usage, helping them to visualize their habits and work routines and potentially discover new ways to optimize their productivity levels.

The app features a simple-to-use interface that promotes easy discovery of all of its tools via a tabbed interface with the following main categories – Input (keyboard heat man, mouse heat map, app usage, input history, and key combinations), Network (interfaces, application, real-time, countries, and port types) and Uptime (computer uptime, reboot calendar, applications, and application activity).



The app best functions after it has been left to work in the background for prolonged periods of time, enabling it to gather valuable data while users are working on their regular daily routines.

At any time, users have the ability to see the breakdown of collected data which is presented in the form of eye-catching and informative graphs, charts, and data listing, offering actionable insights and unexpected discoveries.

The program offers the most value to students and teams who want to discover new ways of optimizing time spent on PC, helping them see daily usage patterns, times when they are operating at peak productivity, possible distractions that reduce productivity, detect most bandwidth-heavy apps, identify timewasters, and much more.
