## About

Pulse keeps stock, crypto, precious metals, indices, and ETF prices in the macOS menu bar. It supports markets across the US, Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Japan, and Korea, with named watchlists, pinned or rotating tickers, charts, extended-hours data, and automatic holdings calculations for daily and total P&L.

Designed for investors who want a quick market view without maintaining a trading terminal, Pulse also offers local MCP access for compatible AI clients and keeps watchlists, positions, and trades on the Mac. It is a monitoring app, not a trading platform, and places no orders.
