BROWSER EXTENSION
Connect your browser in a few minutes.
ParentPulse uses an opt-in Chrome extension. It records only the active domain, broad category, and time totals after the child has consented.
DEVICE COMPATIBILITY
Know what works before you connect.
Desktop or laptop computers running Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.
Modern browsers on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers.
Safari or Firefox collection, mobile apps, and activity inside native desktop apps.
ParentPulse currently collects browser activity only. Additional device support may be added in a future release.
FUTURE DEVICE SUPPORT
Expanding thoughtfully.
Firefox and Safari extensions, plus Chromebook support.
Optional Windows and macOS companion applications.
iOS, iPadOS, and Android integrations where platform APIs permit.
Family router summaries for household-level activity patterns.
Aggregate gaming-console and smart-TV activity where practical.
Future school-managed device integrations with appropriate authorization.
These are planned areas, not current features. Availability will depend on each platform's privacy rules, technical APIs, consent requirements, and operating-system permissions. Every integration will remain opt-in and collect only the minimum information needed for family summaries.

What is collected?
