01What Pulse is

A market briefing, not a news feed.

Twice a day Pulse picks the few events that matter for markets out of thousands of headlines, explains what each could mean for rates, the dollar, stocks and crypto, and shows where every fact came from. It is written by an AI model and checked by automated gates; facts and our reading of them are labelled apart.

Weekly review · 24 Aug – 30 Aug 2026Unlocked sample

Fed holds rates amid inflation concerns

Rates remain steady at 3.5-3.75% with inflation concerns persisting from the July FOMC meeting. The dominant catalyst is the sudden US-Canada tariff imposition after trade talks collapsed. Monitor the August 26 GDP and PCE releases for fresh signals on growth and inflation transmission into markets.

Economy & FinanceNeutral

Why it matters · our readingSteady rates with hawkish undertones from the minutes keep pressure on borrowing costs and equity valuations in rate-sensitive sectors.

04How it works

From a thousand headlines to one honest read

Written by an AI model, which is exactly why every step is checked and every claim is traceable.

  1. 01

    Collect

    Seven searches per edition across newsrooms and primary sources: central banks, regulators, statistical agencies. Prices are measured by us, not quoted.

  2. 02

    Write

    An AI model writes from that evidence only, and tags every claim: a sourced fact, or our reading of it.

  3. 03

    Check

    Automated gates test each claim against its source. An edition that fails a hard gate is not published; a thin beat is dropped, not padded.

  4. 04

    Score

    Every Radar call carries a deadline. After it, prices settle the call, or it is marked “could not check” and never counted.

07Questions

Everything people ask before they start

Something else? Write to hello@getpulsebrief.com.

What is Pulse?

A twice-daily market briefing. Each edition covers seven beats (economy and finance, crypto, technology, politics, conflicts, disasters and health) and explains what each event could mean for rates, the dollar, equities and crypto. Every claim links to its source.

Who writes it?

An AI model (xAI Grok) writes each edition from sources collected for that edition. Automated gates check every claim against its source before anything is published. No human edits individual editions; the methodology page explains every step.

How is this different from a news feed or a newsletter?

A feed shows you everything; a newsletter shows you one author's view. Pulse picks the events that matter to markets, separates facts from our reading line by line, and scores its own forecasts in public, including the ones that went wrong or could not be checked.

What is free?

Today's edition in preview (the summary, the overall mood, the mood of every beat and the lead story of each), plus live markets, coin pages, the regime stance, the macro calendar, Flash headlines, the public track record, and every edition in full once it is 7 days old.

What does Pro add?

Every edition in full the moment it is published: every story, claim and source, what changed since the previous edition, regime evidence, drivers and tactics, the Radar, liquidation maps and our reading on every Flash alert.

Why do editions open to everyone after 7 days?

Because a track record only means something if anyone can check it. Pro pays for the timing: the whole edition while it is news. The archive stays public.

When is it published?

A morning edition around 21:30 UTC for the next day, an evening edition around 09:00 UTC, and a weekly review on Sunday evening (UTC). Flash alerts arrive between editions.

Is Pulse financial advice?

No. Pulse explains what happened and what could matter for markets. It does not know your situation and never tells anyone to buy or sell anything.

Can I share an edition?

Yes. Every edition, beat, story and Flash alert has share links for X, LinkedIn, Telegram, WhatsApp, Reddit, Facebook and email. People you share with see the free preview of fresh editions and everything once it is 7 days old.

Can I buy Pro now?

Not yet. Pulse is free while we finish setting up payments. Everything listed under Free stays free, and every edition opens to everyone in full after 7 days.
