You might have noticed the Pulse tab in your navigation bar. If you haven't explored it yet, you're missing one of the most powerful features in the ResearchArk beta.
Pulse LiveView is a real-time analytics dashboard that turns hundreds of thousands of funding opportunities into actionable intelligence. No spreadsheets, no manual tracking. Just open it and see what's happening across the global funding landscape right now.
What's Inside Pulse LiveView
Executive Dashboard
Five key metrics at the top: total active funding, average award amount, total opportunities, active opportunities, and funding schemes. Your morning briefing for the global funding landscape, updating continuously.
Trending Disciplines
Four live cards break down the funding landscape by major discipline clusters. Each card shows active opportunity count, total funding volume, week-over-week change, and a sub-discipline leaderboard. Spot where the money is moving before your competitors do.
AI Flash Insights
Every day, our AI scans the current funding landscape and generates a fresh set of insights you'd never spot manually: weekend deadline clusters, emerging funding spikes, early-submission windows, cross-discipline trends. A scrollable carousel of bite-sized intelligence, updated daily.
Urgency Heatmap
A 12-week heatmap visualizes deadline density across the calendar. Darker cells mean more deadlines clustering on that day. Click any cell to see exactly which opportunities are due, with direct links. Four urgency bands give you the big-picture count at a glance.
Live Feed
A chronological, paginated feed of the latest opportunities entering our database. Each entry shows the title, funder, funding amount, deadline status, and a short description. Like a news ticker for research funding — always current, always expanding.
Pulse LiveView turns hundreds of thousands of funding opportunities into a live command center for the global research funding landscape.
More Pulse Views
LiveView is just one lens. Pulse also offers five additional analytics views, each designed for a different strategic question:
Thematic — Funding patterns across research topics and disciplines.
Temporal — Seasonal trends, deadline cycles, and historical patterns.
Programmes — Deep dives into specific funding programmes and agencies.
Strategic — Cross-cutting analysis for research strategy planning.
Frontiers — Emerging fields and early-signal funding shifts.
We're actively shaping what Pulse becomes. Which metrics matter most for your research planning? What's missing? Your feedback goes straight into the product.
