Questions you can ask

Ask Pulse answers plain-English questions from Pulse’s own data, with links to the companies and investors behind each answer. For example:

  • Which companies raised more than £3m at Series A in the last year?
  • Which companies haven't filed a round in the last two years?
  • Which funds back the most growth-stage software companies?

Questions

Is this a credit score?

No. It's funding and ownership intelligence, useful alongside your own credit checks.

How many seats are included?

Two, on the Company data plan.

Where does the data come from?

From official UK company records, which Pulse cleans, matches, values and connects with its own intelligence engine. Amounts and valuations are Pulse estimates: a strong guide, not audited figures.
