Every voice, heard.

Most of a student's progress happens between rehearsals, where you can't see it. Five findings on making that time count.

Questions, answered.

Getting started

How much does Practice Pulse cost?

Your first semester is free. After that, schools choose a flat annual plan sized to their program.

What does setup look like?

One of our team members will personally help you and your students get set up. We make it fast, easy, and tailored to your class, so you can hit the ground running.

Do I need my district's approval?

Most schools need a quick sign-off. We work with your administrators and IT team on whatever their review requires.

Do I need to change how I teach?

Not at all. Practice Pulse is designed to fit seamlessly into your current curriculum.

Using it

Is this like Flipgrid?

Flipgrid was a great start. Practice Pulse is purpose-built for music: every submission lands in one place, students can record on any device, and it adds practice tracking, streaks, and goals so the habit keeps going between check-ins.

What kinds of assignments can I send?

Video, audio, or text prompts, sent once or on repeat. Attach sheet music, practice tracks, or links, and send to a whole ensemble, a single section, or hand-picked students.

Does it work for choir as well as band and orchestra?

Yes. Voice parts and instruments are built in, so you can send a check-in to just your sopranos or just your trumpets. Singers can record along with the practice tracks you share.

Students & devices

Our school bans phones during the day. Will this work?

Yes. Practice Pulse is built for practice at home, on any phone, tablet, Chromebook, or computer, and everything syncs across devices. In school, it runs in the browser on Chromebooks.

Can other students see my students' videos?

Submissions go to you, not the class. The class feed is for encouragement, like who showed up and kept their streak going.

Does this add to screen time?

It's designed to do the opposite. There are no ads, no algorithm, and no endless feed. Students open Practice Pulse, practice, and put the phone down.

How is student information handled?

Student privacy shapes how we build Practice Pulse. Our Privacy Policy explains what we collect and how it's used, and we're happy to walk your administrators through it.
