FITIV Pulse is the most fully-featured health and fitness app available on iOS and Apple Watch. Leveraging the power of Heart Rate Training, FITIV Pulse helps users plan, track and analyze their progress toward their fitness goals.

FITIV Pulse was designed to solve a seemingly simple problem: tracking and motivating a sustainable healthy lifestyle. Designed specifically for Apple Watch, FITIV has evolved to make use of the ongoing innovation of iOS and watchOS like Live Activities and the iPhone 14 Pro’s Dynamic Island. FITIV Pulse is unique in the Health and Fitness space because of its meticulous work to ensure that FITIV is the only app athletes need to track their fitness progress across the entire breadth of activities they perform.

With finely-tuned customization options, eye catching in-workout visuals, detailed post-workout analysis, a personal health dashboard, and social functions, including workout sharing templates and leaderboards, FITIV Pulse is the perfect companion for athletes of any fitness level.

The FITIV Community within the app allows users to connect with athletes around the world: participating in leaderboards, sharing fitness advice, and posting their accomplishments. The FITIV Community also comes together to participate in monthly challenges, earning badges to celebrate their workout milestones.

FITIV Pulse has also evolved to take advantage of technological advances in iOS and Apple Watch with features like customizable widgets, programmable workout intervals, Apple Watch complications, Live Activities, and much more.

“If you build a dystopian and cynical security program born out of fear, mistrust, and suspicion, then you will inevitably make your fellow employees your enemies.”

That’s a quote from Honest Security, Kolide’s mission statement, and North Star. It was written by Kolide’s CEO, Jason Meller, who spent his career in cybersecurity before founding Kolide. 

He was troubled by the widely-accepted idea among cybersecurity professionals that end users should be treated, first and foremost, as threats. This way of thinking informs the traditional approach to device management, which relies on MDMs that take control of devices and come with surveillance capabilities that most companies don’t need or even really want.

Kolide works by notifying your employees of security issues via Slack, educating them on why they’re important, and giving them step-by-step instructions to resolve them themselves.

Kolide’s open-source agent collects data across 43 categories on Mac, Windows, and Linux devices. It can answer questions like:

• Do any of my developers have unsecured SSH keys floating around?
• Does everyone have disk encryption, screen lock, and password managers set up?
• Are there any Macs in my fleet in need of a new battery?

And while Kolide can provide insights that MDMs can’t, our commitment to transparency really sets us apart. Employees can visit the User Privacy Center for an explanation of precisely what data is being collected, by whom, and for what purpose.
