Ever sit at your desk and think, “Is this still working for me?”
Not the task in front of you. Not the meeting later.
The whole thing — your job, your role, your day-to-day.Most of us don’t check in with ourselves that way.
But we should.
That’s why we built the Pulse Check: a quick, private, science-backed tool to help you notice how you’re feeling at work, and why. It’s inspired by traditional employee happiness surveys, but flipped inward, made personal, and redesigned for you.
From Company Survey to Personal Insight
In many workplaces, happiness surveys are sent out by HR to measure morale, spot burnout risks, or guide engagement strategies.
The idea is good. The execution? Often clunky, impersonal, and out of your hands.
The Pulse Check is our version. Simple, regular, completely private. It’s a 60-second moment of reflection that helps you build awareness, track emotional patterns, and surface what’s really going on beneath the daily grind.
What’s in a Pulse Check?
Each Pulse Check includes four gentle steps designed to give you clarity, not overwhelm:
1. How Are You Feeling at Work Today?
Slide from 1 to 10. That’s your happiness score.
You can think of it as emotional signal strength: how connected, satisfied, or off you’re feeling.
2. Choose Your Emotion Tags
Pick up to 3 emotions that describe where you’re at. Feeling burned out, valued, stagnant, hopeful? Put a name to it.
3. What’s Influencing That Feeling?
Was it your team, your workload, your growth, or something else? You can select specific themes that might be driving your mood.
4. Write a Quick Note in your Private Journal (Optional)
Got a thought you don’t want to forget? A feeling that needs space?
This journal field is just for you — never analyzed, never shared.
Why It Works
Small, consistent check-ins help us notice the shifts we often miss.
Emotional awareness: Naming emotions builds resilience
Pattern recognition: You’ll start to see what’s helping or hurting
Progress tracking: Compare today with last month, or last quarter
Smart nudges: Keepliv offers gentle, private insights if it notices a trend (like repeated low scores or steady improvement)
Think of it as a fitness tracker — not for steps, but for your state of mind at work.
Inspired by Science, Built for Real Life
Pulse Checks borrow from the research behind employee happiness surveys, but we stripped away the corporate layer and made them personal.
No manager reviews
No HR dashboards
No performance scores
Just you, understanding yourself better, one reflection at a time.
After You Submit, Here’s What You’ll See
Your current score compared to your personal average
A subtle insight (e.g., “You’ve marked burnout 3 times in the last 4 check-ins — want to reflect?”)
Optional comparison to others in your role or industry, anonymously, and only if you’ve opted in
What a Pulse Check Isn’t
It’s not a productivity hack.
It’s not a therapy session.
It’s not something you need to obsess over.
You can set your frequency to weekly, biweekly, monthly, or even every two months. And if you skip a check-in, no stress. The system will gently remind you later.
Why It Matters
We spend most of our waking hours at work.
Checking in with yourself isn’t self-indulgent. Tt’s self-respect.
Pulse Checks help you:
Spot burnout before it sneaks up
Clarify what really matters to you in your job
Make more informed, confident career decisions — whether that means staying, speaking up, or moving on

It takes less than a minute, and it’s all yours.
No one sees it. No one judges it.
But you might just start seeing your work — and yourself — a little more clearly.
