PulseTime tracking for Jira
that respects your time.
One keystroke to log work. A timesheet that edits like a spreadsheet. Reports your manager actually asks for. Free — for everyone, forever.
Get Pulse free on the Atlassian MarketplaceEverything a timesheet needs. Nothing it doesn't.
⚡ One-key logging
Press L anywhere. Smart durations ("1h 30m", "1.5"), one-click recent issues, and Mon–Fri bulk logging for recurring work.
⏱️ A timer that follows you
Start, pause, and stop from the dashboard or right on the Jira issue. Stop & log records the real start time — and nudges you if you forget it running.
📅 Calendar & week grid
See your month as a calendar of worklogs, or edit the week like a spreadsheet — click a cell, type "2h", Enter. Copy last week forward in one click.
🔒 Submit & lock weeks
Mark a week complete and Pulse locks it against accidental edits — with your PTO and holidays already excluded from the target.
📊 Real reports
Hours by day, project, and issue. Estimate vs actual with over-budget flags. Export to Excel or CSV, generated in your browser.
🛡️ Private by design
No external servers, no analytics, no tracking. Worklogs are native Jira data — visible to every tool, and still yours if you ever uninstall.
Why is it free?
No servers to pay for
Pulse runs entirely on Atlassian's Forge platform inside your Jira site. There is no infrastructure bill to pass on to you.
No lock-in to defend
Your time lives in Jira's own worklog system, not a proprietary database. We don't need to charge you to keep your data hostage — we couldn't if we wanted to.
Built by people who fill timesheets
Scriptix Labs built Pulse because logging time shouldn't cost per-user fees. It's free for a solo developer and free for a 500-person company.
Questions
Is it really free? What's the catch?
Really free — no tiers, no trials, no per-user pricing, no feature gates. Pulse runs on Atlassian's infrastructure, so serving it costs us almost nothing, and we've committed to keeping it that way.
Where does my data live?
Inside your Jira site. Worklogs are stored by Jira itself; Pulse keeps only your preferences, favorites, and timer state in Atlassian Forge storage. Nothing ever leaves Atlassian — Pulse qualifies for the "Runs on Atlassian" program.
What happens if I uninstall Pulse?
Your worklogs are untouched — they're native Jira worklogs, visible in Jira's own time tracking and any other app. Pulse's own settings storage is removed per Atlassian's app data lifecycle.
Which Jira does it work with?
Jira Cloud (all plans, including Free). Jira Data Center / Server is not supported — Pulse is built on Forge, Atlassian's cloud app platform.
Does it work for teams?
Every teammate gets their own dashboard, timesheets, reminders, and reports after a single install by an admin. Team-wide rollup views are on the roadmap.
