From the introduction:
"Alacra Pulse is a recent addition to the Alacra suite of products. The Pulse platform
takes around 2,600 RSS feeds from traditional media and alternative blog sources.
Applications sit on top of this platform and the first, Street Pulse, which focuses on
analyst commentary, was launched in February 2009.
A subscription product, Pulse Professional, went live in mid-May. This provides more
functionality than the free version, and also includes Deal Pulse (covering M&A deals).
Weak Pulse (distressed companies and restructurings) recently went live and Legal
Pulse (mentions of law firms) is currently in development."
