When do these allowances apply?
The allowances on this page are the ones in force today, in the current Chrome Web Store release. Prices are unchanged; Starter's Research rose from 10 to 15 runs a month and Pro's from 30 to 40.
What does the Free plan include?
Real Pulse, not a demo: 20 Smart Snips, 20 Page Extractions, 20 Full-Page Captures and 10 Professional Exports a month, plus 1 lifetime Research run. Copy never counts. No card and no subscription are required, and Free is not a trial that expires.
What happens when I reach a Free limit?
That action pauses until your monthly allowance resets, and everything you already made stays yours. Lite raises every monthly allowance for $6.99 a month. Upgrading to Starter removes the limits on Page Extractions, Full-Page Captures and Professional Exports immediately and raises Smart Snip to 100 a month; Pro and Intelligence make Smart Snip unlimited too.
What is Lite?
Lite is bought inside Pulse: add Pulse to Chrome, sign in, and choose Lite, monthly or annual. It is the everyday plan: 60 Smart Snips, 100 Page Extractions, 100 Full-Page Captures, 100 Professional Exports and 3 Research runs a month, for $6.99 a month or $69 a year. Annual Lite is billed once a year and its allowances refresh every month. If you need extraction, capture and exports without limits, Starter is the plan for that.
How do I upgrade?
Install Pulse from the Chrome Web Store and create a free account. Your plan is managed from inside the extension, so you can change it whenever your usage changes.
What is a Professional Export?
One export action: an Excel, PDF, CSV, JSON or text file of a result, or Download All, which packages every available export into one ZIP and counts once. Copy never counts, and a Full-Page Capture's own PNG or PDF is included with the capture.
Do annual plans receive all their Research upfront?
No. Annual plans are paid once a year, but Research refresh monthly: the same 3, 15, 40 or 100 (Lite, Starter, Pro, Intelligence) every month, never a full year in one lump sum. The one exception is Intelligence Annual's own one-time first-month bonus (200 instead of 100).
Does Pulse reduce extraction quality on Free?
No. Free gets the same extraction quality as every paid plan. The difference is usage capacity: 20 Page Extractions, 20 Full-Page Captures and 10 Professional Exports a month, 1 lifetime Research run, and 20 Smart Snips a month.
How does Smart Snip usage work?
Smart Snip and Smart Snip Studio are live in Pulse Extractor 0.5.8, the current Chrome Web Store release. Free includes 20 Smart Snips a month, Starter includes 100 a month, and Pro and Intelligence include unlimited Smart Snip. One new selection counts once; editing it, copying it and reopening it never count. Saving it as an Excel, PDF, CSV, JSON or text file is one Professional Export.
What counts as a Research run?
A Research run is one completed, billable Research result. Research looks beyond the page you're on, for things like key people and contacts, projects, procurement routes, or business relationships, guided by a research preset. You're charged only when Pulse finds enough verifiable evidence to return a real result; an Insufficient evidence result is never charged.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Yes. You can cancel a subscription at any time from your account; see the Refund Policy for how refunds are handled separately.
Can I buy extra Research runs?
Not at launch. Intelligence's 100 Research runs a month is the path for heavier usage for now.
