The first public release.
Mac app
- Apple Health export import. Drop
export.zip, the unzippedapple_health_export/folder orexport.xmlon Pulsebridge. Records, blood pressure and other correlations, metadata, workouts with statistics and routes, and Activity rings go into a local SQLite database. Repeat imports only add new rows. - Live sync from the iPhone companion. Turn on Live Bridge on the Mac, scan the pairing code with your iPhone, and new Health data arrives over your local network (or Tailscale), in the background when Health has new data.
- Dashboard of steps, active energy, exercise, distance, resting heart rate, HRV, VO₂ max, weight, sleep stages and workouts over a week, month, year or all history. Each card opens a chart with a table of daily values.
- Steps page.
- Running: your top three times at 14 distances from 400 m to 50 km, found inside your runs in Health, with a podium per distance and race-time estimates.
- Strength training read from gym logs on Strava activities: estimated one-rep maxes, records and volume per lift, a body map, and muscle fatigue per muscle group.
- Workouts list and detail pages with duration, distance, energy and statistics.
- MCP server so AI assistants such as Claude can answer questions from your own database, on your Mac.
- Automatic exports to JSON, CSV, a REST endpoint, MQTT and Home Assistant.
- Automatic updates through Sparkle (Pulsebridge → Check for Updates…).
- The
pulsebridgecommand-line tool.
iPhone companion
- Reads HealthKit (read-only) with one anchored query per type, so each sync sends only new samples and deletions.
- Finds the Mac over Bonjour, pairs with a QR code, and syncs in the background.
Coming soon
