Step 01

Teacher records voice note

Teacher flags a concern in under a minute, anywhere -- hallway, classroom, cafeteria. No form. No login. Just a voice note from their phone.

Step 02

Pulse transcribes and routes

Pulse transcribes the note automatically, tags it to the student's record, and routes an alert to the right counselor or administrator based on the risk type.

Step 03

Support reaches the student

The counselor receives the context, the student's history, and a suggested resource, before the student walks back through the door. No email chain. No dropped concern.
