Weekly check-ins for crews that don't sit at desks
Know how your crew is really doing — before someone walks off the job.
Once a week your crew gets a two-minute check-in on the phone they already have — voice or text, Spanish or English. You get a report every Monday, and a chat you can ask anything.

What you see
A report every Monday, and a chat that remembers everything.
The report is the ten-second version: where the crew stands, what moved, what came up more than once. The chat is for everything else — ask about one person, one crew, or six months back, and it answers from what people actually said.
Two things, both included

People reporting a short check, last 12 weeks
One or two a week through the spring. Six this week, and climbing since the Westside job started.
Worth your attention
Worth a word
Didn't answer
Seven people this week. Three of them have now missed two in a row — Hector Salas, Wilmer Cruz and Danny Fuentes. Going quiet is usually worth a look on its own.
In their words
"Nos faltó material el martes y me faltaron horas en el cheque otra vez."
"We ran out of material Tuesday and my check was short on hours again."

What it asks of you
Nobody has to run this. That includes you.
There's no meeting, no rollout, no training day, and nothing for a supervisor to administer. The check-ins go out on their own and the report lands whether you open it or not.

Getting started
Two things to do. Both of them take a minute.
There's no demo to sit through, no implementation call, and nobody waiting on a contract to switch you on. You sign up and paste a list. That's the whole setup.

Add your crew
Names and mobile numbers, pasted straight out of whatever you already keep them in. Nothing else is required — you can add crews and languages later, or never.
Nothing to do
It runs on its own
Check-ins go out early in the week and your crew has until Friday to answer. Your report is written up over the weekend and is in your inbox Monday morning, so you start the week knowing where things stand — and the chat is there whenever you want to go deeper.
No IT, no integration, no HRIS project, no admin seat for anyone in the office, and nothing for a supervisor to run.
Why people answer
People will tell you. They've just never had a way that wasn't a risk.
Every design decision here exists to remove a reason not to answer. That's the whole product.
It goes around the filter
A concern normally has to survive the foreman — the person who controls their hours — before it reaches you. Most don’t. Pulso runs worker to owner, and workers are told that in the first message.
Nobody has to type or read
Talking beats typing for someone with a phone in a work glove, and it beats reading for someone who doesn't read much. Both are offered, every week, and either takes two minutes.
It was written in Spanish, not translated
"¿Vale la pena lo que haces aquí?" is a question a person asks. The translated version of the same question reads like a form, and people answer forms the way they answer forms.
We never promise anonymity
Because it would be a lie the first time you mentioned something a worker said. They're told plainly: the owner sees your name. What we protect is the part that actually puts them at risk.
Criticism arrives as advice
Nobody complains about their boss to their boss. But "what would you tell a new guy" and "what would you change if you ran the job" get answered honestly, and they carry the same information.
Skipping costs them nothing
Any question can be passed on, and a pass is never shown to you as a refusal. A worker who can decline safely is a worker who answers the rest honestly.
The math
What it costs when one person leaves.
Recruiting, onboarding, the ramp to full speed, and what the rest of the crew loses covering the gap. Set your crew’s wage and every step of the arithmetic is below.

Start with what you pay
Move the slider to your crew’s average. Everything else is worked out from it.
A year of pay
$23/hr × 40 hrs × 52 weeks
$47,840
Replacing one person
40% of a year of pay
$19,136
Pulso is $500 a month.
One person leaving costs more than 3 years of it.
The 40% covers recruiting, onboarding, the ramp to full speed, and what the rest of the crew loses covering the gap. Published estimates for hourly, service and production roles run from under 20% to more than half, depending on how much training the role carries — 40% sits in the middle. Yours is higher if your crew runs overtime or holds certifications.
Everything else
The ones owners ask next.
Does my foreman see the answers?
No, and that's the promise the whole thing rests on. If you want a supervisor to know something, you pass it along yourself — the system never routes it to him.
Who on my payroll gets the check-in?
You pick the band you want to hear from. Most owners start with the frontline crew, because that's the layer they hear from least. You can run it at foreman and supervisor level instead, or run both and read them separately — which is the fastest way to find out whether the two levels are describing the same week. Everyone you include gets the same two-minute check-in in their own language, and a foreman answering his own check-in still never sees anybody else's.
What if somebody would rather type than talk?
Then they type. Every check-in offers both, every week, and a worker can switch between them whenever they like. Voice tends to win with people who are on their feet; text wins with people who don't want to be overheard.
How far back does it remember?
As far back as you've been running. The chat holds every check-in, so you can ask how somebody has changed since the spring, or whether a crew has been off since a particular job started. That's the part a survey can't do.
Is this an engagement survey?
No. Engagement surveys are anonymous, quarterly, averaged, and written in English for office workers. This is a named weekly conversation in Spanish about whether a specific person has what they need. The output is something to do about one worker, not a score for a department.
What do you never ask about?
Immigration status, papers, health, finances, religion, and family conflict. They aren't in the question bank, they aren't inferred from answers, and no answer is ever scored or fed to a model that flags people as risks.
What happens to the data if we stop?
You get an export of your own account, and the personal details workers shared are deleted rather than handed over. Those were given with the worker's consent so they'd be recognized, not as a company asset.
Start hearing from your crew this week.
Sign yourself up, add your people, and the first check-in goes out on your schedule.
