Step 1: Create Your Account

Getting started is simple with Google Sign-In:

This information helps KozoPulse better understand your brand context and provide more accurate insights.

Step 3: Complete Onboarding

The onboarding wizard helps you set up your first monitoring in two simple steps:

Product Discovery

Step 4: Explore Your Dashboard

Once onboarding is complete, you'll land on your Pulse Center dashboard. Here's what you'll see:

Hero Metrics
At the top, see your key metrics: brands tracked, products monitored, average visibility (SOV %), and average sentiment score.
Brand Cards
Each brand shows its health status, share of voice trend with sparkline, sentiment breakdown, product count, pulse count, and recent mention count.
Health Status
Brands are automatically categorized as Healthy (≥70% visibility), At-Risk (50-69%), or Critical (<50%) based on share of voice metrics.
Subscription Usage
Monitor your plan limits for brands, products, and pulses at the bottom of the dashboard. Usage bars show how close you are to your limits.
