Dive Readiness
A quick self-check before you dive. Sleep, stress, symptoms, medication — three screens, honest answers, a clear recommendation. Not an algorithm that clears you. A mirror that reminds you to be honest with yourself.
Whichever way you meet the ocean — Ocean Pulse is built to go with you.
Clear and uncluttered. Recent dives, activity, events — everything at a glance.
Depth, hours, sites, countries, streaks. Your dive profile — at a glance.

Your dives become science. Anonymous, opt-in, into GBIF, iNaturalist & OBIS.
Pro share supports Sea Shepherd. You keep diving — the ocean keeps a guardian.
Ocean Pulse surfaces the insights that make you better — patterns, trends and the small cues you'd otherwise miss.
Every logged dive — opt-in, anonymised — feeds into global marine-science databases. You keep diving. Researchers get the data they can't get any other way.
Species sightings, temperature trends, visibility patterns, reef conditions. Aggregated across thousands of divers, delivered to GBIF, iNaturalist, Ocean Biodiversity Information System. A global network of divers making visible what stays hidden otherwise — without paperwork, without protocols. Just dive, and the data takes care of itself.
Only anonymised data is shared with our science partners. No ads, no trackers, no selling. What you log stays yours.
A logbook that respects the craft. Cloud-synced, offline-ready, designed to be used on a boat — not a desk.
Depth, duration, temperature. Visibility, current, weight. Suit, buoyancy, air consumption. Buddy, site, wrecks, caves, sightings. Every dive captured the moment you surface. Statistics that make you a better diver — not louder metrics, but the patterns that actually matter: trends in your consumption, your preferred depth range, the species you keep meeting, the sites that keep calling you back. Thirty-nine data points per dive in total — from reef to wreck.
Twenty years of handwritten entries, a stack of agency log sheets, a messy spreadsheet — point the camera, and Ocean Pulse reads them.
Our import engine turns photographs of paper logbooks into structured digital dives. Hand-written site names, scribbled depths, coffee-stained dates. The history you already have, without a single evening of typing. Every dive you've ever made, finally in one place.
“What started as something I built for myself as a diver has grown into something bigger. I developed it the way I needed it — and now I hope to evolve it together with the community. A true digital dive buddy.”— Sebastian, Founder

Three tools that know when you're ready.
An honest self-check before every dive. Every dive-medical certificate safely stored — with a reminder before it expires. Emergency contacts and hyperbaric chambers worldwide, always offline. Three layers of safety, quiet in the background — loud only when it matters.
A quick self-check before you dive. Sleep, stress, symptoms, medication — three screens, honest answers, a clear recommendation. Not an algorithm that clears you. A mirror that reminds you to be honest with yourself.
Dive-medical certificates, always with you. A reminder two months before expiry, so nothing surprises you. Dive operators see your status in thirty seconds — no folder, no search, no translation.
DAN hotlines worldwide, 24/7. Hyperbaric chambers near you. Personal emergency contacts, blood type, allergies — one tap to call. Saved offline, even when the reef is farther than the nearest cell tower.
Dive insurance in the same drawer as your dive medical. Status, policy, emergency number — at hand before the dive shop asks. No more inbox-diving just before the briefing.
iPhone, iPad, Mac. Cloud-synced, offline-ready, there when you need it.
Small helpers that make every dive better.

Clear answers on dive logbooks, digital memories, citizen science and sustainable diving.
Oceanpulse.life is a dive app and digital dive logbook that brings dives, certifications, and marine life encounters together in one place. Built by divers, it helps preserve personal memories long-term while contributing to ocean research.
A digital dive logbook makes your dives searchable, secure, and accessible from anywhere. It stores depth, duration, visibility, and sightings without risk of loss. It also generates automatic statistics that paper logbooks can't offer.
No. Many divers love their handwritten logbook and its personal touch. A dive app is more of a useful complement that backs up analog memories and adds features like maps, statistics, and photos.
With a modern dive app, paper logbooks can be captured by photo. Date, depth, dive site, and buddy are recognized and added automatically. Analog dives stay preserved — even if the original fades or gets lost.
Paper can get wet, yellow, or be lost entirely. A digital backup protects decades of dive history from water, travel, or moves. Both formats complement each other — the handwriting stays, the data survives.
Useful dive documentation covers date, dive site, depth, duration, buddy, conditions, and sightings. Photos, notes, and personal impressions add depth to each entry. A digital dive logbook keeps everything structured and searchable.
Travel memories live through places, encounters, and stories. A dive app links each dive to its dive site on the map, sighted species, photos, and personal notes. Every trip becomes a lasting Ocean Journal.
Sightings can be added to each dive as a marine-life list — from manta rays to nudibranchs. With date, location, and optional photos, a personal sightings catalog grows that's also useful for citizen science.
Citizen science means divers contribute to marine research through their observations. Sightings, water temperatures, and reef conditions across thousands of dives help scientists detect changes in the ocean — without any extra effort.
Anonymized dive data flows voluntarily into global marine databases like GBIF and the Ocean Biodiversity Information System. Part of every Pro membership also goes directly to Sea Shepherd. Diving becomes active ocean protection.
Sustainable diving means not damaging reefs, respecting wildlife, and contributing through observation. Documenting sightings and reporting trash or reef damage makes you part of active ocean conservation.
A dive community connects like-minded people and shares spots, tips, and sightings worldwide. It creates inspiration for the next trip, honest experiences, and the feeling of being part of something bigger.
An Ocean Journal is more than a logbook — it brings together dives, travel, sightings, and personal impressions. It captures the feeling underwater, not just the data. Digital Ocean Journals can be exported as PDF or shared with others.
Modern dive apps store data encrypted in the cloud and on device. Backups and sync ensure dives stay accessible even after years. Scientific contributions happen only anonymously and voluntarily.
Dives are often the most intense travel moments — and pass quickly. Saved digitally as Ocean Memories, you can recall years later exactly when, where, and with whom a dive happened. Memories stay alive — and sometimes become scientifically relevant.
