What Is a Pulse?

A pulse measures connected call duration on Uservox. Every connected call (the customer actually picked up) is billed in pulses:
  • 1 pulse = 1 minute of connected talk time
  • Duration rounds up to the next full minute — a 45-second call is 1 pulse, a 70-second call is 2 pulses.
Pulses are the primary usage metric for billing and capacity planning — they reflect actual connected talk-time, not total call attempts (unconnected calls consume no pulses).
