Introducing LaunchPulse: analytics for products that just shipped
Why we built a $5 analytics dashboard for indie founders, and what it does (and deliberately doesn't do).
Every founder we know has the same tab open the morning after a launch: an analytics dashboard they don’t fully understand, showing numbers they’re not sure they can trust, for a product with maybe forty visitors.
That’s the moment LaunchPulse was built for.
The problem with “real” analytics
Big analytics suites are built for teams with data analysts, event taxonomies, and a quarterly OKR review. When you’re one person with a landing page, a Stripe link, and a waitlist, you need answers to exactly three questions:
- Is anyone coming? — traffic, and where it comes from.
- Is anyone signing up? — conversions from visit to signup.
- Is anyone actually using it? — activation: did they reach the moment your product is for?
Everything else is noise you’ll care about later, if you’re lucky enough to have a “later.”
What LaunchPulse does
One dashboard per project, with a funnel that goes Visit → Signup → First Value, your top traffic sources, a live activity feed, and a weekly email that tells you what changed. That’s the whole product, on purpose.
Setup takes one prompt if you use an AI coding agent:
npx launchpulse@latest init
or a tiny snippet if you don’t. Either way you’ll see your first events in under five minutes.
Built bilingual from day one
LaunchPulse speaks English and Spanish everywhere — dashboard, reports, docs, and this blog. Not a translated afterthought: both languages are first-class, because founders ship from everywhere.
$5. That’s it.
One plan, up to 3 projects, 1 million events a month. Cancel anytime. If your product grows past that, congratulations — you’ll have outgrown us for the best possible reason.
