TINYpulse review and pricing

Pulse-survey original; LimeAde-owned since 2021 with softer trajectory.

By LimeAde, Inc. · Founded 2012 · Seattle, WA · private

TINYpulse is the original pulse-survey-led engagement platform, founded 2012 in Seattle. LimeAde acquired TINYpulse in 2021 as part of its broader employee wellbeing and engagement consolidation. The product covers weekly pulse surveys, anonymous feedback, recognition (Cheers for Peers), and lifecycle surveys. Strengths: pioneered the weekly pulse-survey category, simple mid-market deploy, recognizable brand with longstanding installed base, and reasonable price point. Trade-offs: post-LimeAde-acquisition product velocity slowed meaningfully, brand visibility declined as LimeAde focused integration on its core wellbeing product, modernization lags Officevibe and Quantum Workplace, and integration ecosystem has not expanded since acquisition.

Best for

SMB and mid-market companies (50-1,000 employees) committed to TINYpulse legacy or with existing TINYpulse deployment wanting continuity within the LimeAde ecosystem.

Worst for

New buyers (Officevibe or Quantum Workplace better trajectory), enterprises (Glint / Peakon bundled), or buyers prioritizing aggressive product velocity.

Vendor Trust is scored independently of product quality. A great product from an unfair vendor still earns a low trust score.
