What you get

Everything a timesheet needs. Nothing it doesn't.

One-key logging

Log in a keystroke with smart durations (“1h 30m”, “1.5”), recent-issue shortcuts, back-dating, and bulk logging across a week — or paste a standup block and verify the rows before they log.

📅

Timesheets that edit like a spreadsheet

Day, week grid, hour-by-hour, and a monthly calendar. Click a cell and type, or drag a worklog to another day. Submit & lock a week against accidental edits.

📊

The reports managers ask for

Hours by issue, project, and day; a project × day pivot; estimate-vs-actual with flags. Each report is its own menu entry now, and every view is deep-linkable.

🏃

Sprints & teams

Per-sprint Say/Do and a velocity trend across recent sprints, plus a team report — a matrix of who logged what, with drill-down and a per-task view.

🛡️

Runs on Atlassian

Pulse executes on Forge inside your Jira. No external servers, no data egress, no analytics — your time lives in Jira’s own worklogs, not our database.

🌗

Built for daily use

Native dark mode that follows your Jira theme, full keyboard navigation, custom date ranges, and sub-second loads — because you’ll open it every day.

Up and running in a minute

1

Install from the Marketplace

One admin installs Pulse once — every teammate on the site is included, no per-seat setup.

2

Open Pulse in the Jira sidebar

Pulse appears in your Jira apps. No token, no config — it runs as you, with your existing permissions.

3

Log, review, report

Log time in a keystroke, fix a week in the grid, and pull the report your manager asks for — all inside Jira.

Why is it free?

Pulse runs on Atlassian Forge inside your Jira — there's no server bill to pass on, and your time lives in Jira's own worklogs, not our database. So the free app stays genuinely free, forever. Need approvals, billing & invoicing, capacity planning, or org-wide oversight? Those live in the optional Pulse Teams app — Pulse itself never goes paid.
