A small city desk, kept honest.
PULSE helps someone answer one practical question: what is worth doing in Raleigh now? It combines a checked event schedule with a small human edit. It does not pretend to know live crowds or every event in the city.
What the human picks mean
PULSE picks are founder-curated for local distinctiveness, timing, group appeal, and schedule clarity. A pick is editorial judgment—not popularity, attendance, sponsorship, or a personalized prediction.
What gets checked
Event time, place, access, published status, and the official listing are reviewed from intentionally public sources. Each detail shows its check date and links directly to the official page so visitors can confirm last-minute changes before leaving.
What the map does—and does not—show
Map quantities are scheduled events in an area. They are not people, RSVPs, live attendance, popularity, or a crowd estimate. Raleigh is the product boundary; a small number of clearly labeled nearby events may appear when they are useful to a Raleigh decision.
Freshness and missing coverage
PULSE removes ended events from immediate-intent views and warns when the latest source review is aging. Missing dates remain missing. The early Raleigh edition is intentionally incomplete and will not repeat old events to make the calendar look full.
Corrections
The official event page remains the immediate authority for a last-minute change. PULSE updates reviewed facts when official evidence changes. Anyone can email corrections@trypulse.city or use “Suggest a correction” on an event detail. Include what looks wrong; PULSE checks the report against current evidence before changing the city record. Raleigh organizers participating in the correction pilot can use the organizer truth path.
Private by default
Interested events stay in the current browser. Plan links work without an account, and PULSE does not publish or aggregate those choices as social proof. Read the complete privacy notice.
