What is Pulse?

Pulse is a feature that collects and connects all activities of leads and customers into a single timeline.
You can view actions that occur across various touchpoints (such as emails, documents, meetings, forms, and web pages) at a glance.
Pulse full view With this feature, you can easily check the following information.
  • Who opened which emails and which links were clicked
  • Which documents or forms were viewed and how long users stayed
  • Whether the meeting scheduler was visited and whether it led to an actual booking
  • Whether an anonymous visitor was later converted into an identified contact
This allows you to capture lead interest signals without missing them and connect them to actions at the right time.

Sources of user activities collected by Pulse

  • Visitors who do not enter an email address are recorded as anonymous visitors.
  • Document viewing activities that occur in the same environment are accumulated under a single anonymous visitor.
  • When an identifiable action such as email submission or link click occurs later, the anonymous visitor’s activity history is automatically linked to the identified contact.

  • Which content was viewed immediately before conversion
This makes it possible to understand the full pre-conversion journey.

Viewing Pulse by individual lead

On this screen, you can easily check the following.
  • Which emails were opened, when, and how many times
  • Which links were clicked
  • Whether documents, forms, or meeting pages were visited
  • Which activity occurred most recently
This allows you to quickly understand which content an individual lead is repeatedly engaging with and what stage they are currently in.
