What is ChatGPT Pulse?

ChatGPT Pulse is a new experience that flips conversational AI from reactive to proactive. While you’re away, Pulse gathers what matters and pushes it to you in a concise, actionable format: a 5–10 minute daily brief, social highlights worth your attention, and inbox/calendar triage so you can return focused. Built for individuals and teams, Pulse emphasizes speed, reliability, and governance.

Core features

Proactive intelligence

Pulse runs in the background to compile a concise brief — not just waiting for a prompt, but proactively surfacing what’s relevant now.

Personalization & memory

Briefs reflect your role, past conversations, and saved Memory. Memory is optional and can be turned off at any time.

Controls & feedback

Opt‑in app connections, adjustable cadence and quiet hours, with thumbs up/down to teach Pulse what to prioritize next.

Safety & reliability

Multi‑layer safety filtering and a resilient architecture for low latency and high availability.

Frequently asked questions

How is Pulse different from traditional chatbots?

Pulse is proactive. It compiles a daily brief and suggests actions, instead of waiting for you to ask first.

Is my data secure?

We minimize data collection by default and offer regional deployment and encryption options.

Do you support plugins and third‑party apps?

Yes. With plugins and APIs, Pulse connects to retrieval, tasking systems, and data warehouses.

Can I turn Pulse or Memory off?

Yes. Pulse is fully optional and can be paused anytime. Memory can also be disabled if you prefer not to retain context across days.

What sources can Pulse include in my brief?

Common sources include Gmail, Google Calendar, social platforms, documents, chats, issue trackers, and internal wikis. Admins can enable more via plugins.

Can I control cadence and quiet hours?

Yes. Choose daily timing, weekdays only, or ad‑hoc. Set quiet hours and on‑the‑road modes to reduce noise.

How does feedback affect future briefs?

Thumbs up/down, save, and hide teach Pulse what to prioritize, helping it better reflect your preferences over time.

What actions can Pulse take on my behalf?

Draft replies, propose meeting times, summarize long threads, and prepare pre‑reads. You review before sending.

How does Pulse reduce noise?

It prioritizes by relevance and deduplicates similar items. Each card links back to source context so you can go deeper only when needed.

Why did an item appear in my brief?

Every card includes a short rationale and source references so you can understand inclusion and adjust filters.

Who has access today?

Pulse is available as a preview on iOS and Android for Pro subscribers, with broader availability expected to expand over time.

Is Pulse available to all users?

Pulse is rolling out gradually; initial access focuses on power users and teams. Availability may expand over time.

Does Pulse replace notifications?

Pulse complements notifications by aggregating what matters into a single, scannable brief rather than interrupting you throughout the day.

Can teams share or co‑author briefs?

Teams can enable shared workspaces to align on sources, labels, and filters; individual privacy controls still apply.
