Overview

Pulse is ALK’s monitoring and visualisation dashboard. It lets you see your connected data as visual widgets and dashboards, organised across tabs so you can keep different types of data separate. There are three ways to build out a Pulse tab:
  • Add widgets: pin pre-made, single-purpose cards (currently Mono only).
  • Generate dashboard (recommended): describe your sources, goals, and how often to refresh, and ALK generates a full dashboard for you.
  • Create manually: build a dashboard yourself by picking a title, a prompt, data sources, and a refresh schedule.
You can also start a dashboard by describing what you want in Chat (Create via chat).

Dashboard tabs

Pulse organises your widgets and dashboards into tabs. Two tabs are available by default:
  • Finances: for financial data widgets (balance, cashflow, transactions)
  • Inventory: for inventory and operational data widgets
You can switch between tabs using the tab bar at the top of the Pulse screen.

Adding a widget

Widgets are pre-made, single-purpose cards.
Widget integrations are currently limited to Mono. Acumatica is no longer available as a widget source — if you need inventory or purchase order data, use Create manually or Generate dashboard instead once an Acumatica-backed source is supported, or contact support for the current options.
1

Open Pulse

Click the Pulse icon in the ALK navigation bar to open your dashboard.
2

Add a widget

Click the Create button, then choose Add widget from the dropdown (or click Add widgets directly from an empty tab).
3

Choose your widget

The widget panel shows the available Mono widgets: Balance (current account balance), Cashflow (cashflow overview), and Transactions (recent transaction list). Widgets show a lock icon if Mono is not yet connected.
4

Add it to your dashboard

Once Mono is connected, click the widget you want to add. It will appear in the active tab on your dashboard.
This is the fastest way to get a full dashboard rather than adding widgets one at a time.
1

Open the Create menu

Click Create, then choose Create manually (or click Generate dashboard directly from an empty tab).
2

Describe your dashboard

Give it a title and a prompt describing what you want to track, for example “track supplier payment delays from Drive.”
3

Choose data sources

Click Data sources and select one or more connected sources. Currently available: Google Drive, OneDrive, Xero, QuickBooks, Stripe, Flutterwave, Paystack, and Google Sheets.For Google Drive and OneDrive, you can also pick the specific synced files Pulse should use, instead of every file from that source — expand the source to see and select individual files.
4

Set a schedule

Choose how often Pulse should refresh the dashboard: Daily, Weekly, or Monthly.
5

Add goals (optional)

Click the more options icon to select up to four goals (for example Stability, Cost Reduction, Efficiency Gains) to help ALK tailor the analysis.
6

Create

Click Create. ALK will process your sources and build the dashboard — this can take a few minutes depending on your sources and schedule.
A data source must be connected before you can select it here. If a source appears disabled, connect it first under Managing Integrations.

Important notes

  • Widgets (Balance, Cashflow, Transactions) require an active Mono integration.
  • Generated and manually created dashboards require at least one connected data source from the list above.
  • ClickHouse is available as a Knowledge source but is not yet selectable as a Pulse dashboard data source.
