DrivePulse
Italiano · English · Deutsch · Español · Português · Čeština · Polski · Română

Your car has plenty to tell you. Now you can hear it.

Turn your phone into your car's smart companion. Open the app and you know what matters straight away: where it is parked, how the battery is doing, how much range is left and how the last trip went.

All you need is an OBD2 adapter in the diagnostic socket. No account, and your trips never reach us.

What it does

DrivePulse works out on its own when you are driving and records the trip. The rest of the time it stays quiet.

It records every trip, and then you drive it again on the map

Every trip stays there, with its route. You open it again and follow it, with the data your car exposes from the ECU while you drive.

  • Odometer
  • Engine temperature
  • Oil temperature
  • and so on

A score, and the reason for it

Every trip gets a score. Then it tells you why it is not a hundred, item by item, and how many points each one cost you.

Driving Coach

It gives you a hand while you drive and sums things up when you arrive, looking at how you drove on that trip. Not an average of all the others.

What you spend, and what falls due

Log your fill-ups and see what a kilometre costs you. Servicing, insurance, road tax and the roadworthiness test are remembered for you: by date or by mileage, whichever comes first.

On CarPlay, your way

Choose which values stay in front of you, and in what order. The ones you actually look at, large, where you need to look at them.

It reads the ECU. It never writes to it

You see the vehicle's faults and understand what they mean. The app only reads: it writes nothing to your car's ECU, ever.

Service log

Record what you had done and what it cost: over time it becomes your vehicle's history. You can export it as PDF and CSV, year by year, with the totals.

The workshop sheet

Your vehicle's technical data as a single sheet to hand to your mechanic: ECU values, fault codes and the trip summary.

Never heard of an OBD adapter?

It is a little box that plugs into the car's diagnostic socket, usually under the steering wheel, and brings the data the car already knows to your phone. Settimio Perlini explained it properly on macitynet.it, in Italian, if you want to understand more before buying one.
