Vascular inflammation
Markers of active inflammation in the artery wall — the process associated with plaque becoming unstable.
Cardiovascular blood panel
Get to know your heart before it asks for your attention.
PULS measures cardiovascular biomarkers from a small at-home blood sample — signals that can shift before a standard cholesterol panel shows a problem.

Who it is for
PULS is for you if you…
- Have a family history of heart disease
- Have high cholesterol, blood pressure or blood sugar and want more than one number
- Are over 40 and have never looked past a standard lipid panel
- Want a baseline you can retest and trend
- Prefer to collect at home rather than schedule a draw
What PULS measures
Four windows into cardiovascular risk
A standard lipid panel reports how much cholesterol you carry. PULS looks at what that cholesterol may be doing, and at the vessel wall it is doing it to.
Lipid quality, not just quantity
Particle-level detail behind your cholesterol number, including markers a standard panel leaves out.
Cardiac stress signals
Markers associated with strain on the heart muscle, potentially useful before day-to-day symptoms appear.
Metabolic contributors
Insulin resistance and glucose handling, which can drive cardiovascular risk quietly for years.

Inside the report
A baseline your clinician can work with
- Your marker panel with reference ranges, in plain language and clinical terms.
- Flags worth a conversation — highlighted so nothing important gets buried.
- Context for each marker: what it reflects and why it matters for cardiovascular risk.
- A baseline you can retest and trend over time.
- A Genie session that turns flagged markers into questions you can take to your clinician.

Genie
Cardiovascular signals, in language you can take to your clinician.
Genie reads your PULS biomarker panel and Blueprint Score, then turns flags into a short briefing: what a marker reflects, why it is highlighted, and what is worth raising at the appointment.
-
Insights unique to you
Your inflammation, lipid quality, cardiac stress and insulin-resistance markers — not a generic heart-health article.
-
Flags worth a conversation
Genie highlights what is elevated, what it may reflect, and what to bring to your clinician — without diagnosing you.
-
Ready for the appointment
A short list of questions so the visit starts from your panel, not from a printout you do not know how to read.
-
A baseline you can trend
Ask why your Blueprint Score moved after a retest, and which domain changed.
Genie is educational support, not a diagnosis. If you have chest pain or shortness of breath, seek medical care right away.

Questions
PULS questions, answered
It is a small at-home collection using a guided device, not a venous draw at a lab. Full instructions ship with the kit.
No. PULS is designed to sit alongside routine care and give your clinician an earlier, broader signal — not to replace standard testing.
No. You can order PULS yourself, and your results are yours to share with your clinician.
Your kit ships once you order. Results are physician reviewed before release and appear in your secure account, typically 48–72 hrs after the lab receives your sample.
Flagged markers are highlighted with context so you can discuss them with your clinician. PULS is not a diagnosis. If you have symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath, seek medical care right away.
Yes. Genie reads your cardiovascular biomarker panel and Blueprint Score, then talks through what a flag may mean and what to raise at your next appointment. It does not diagnose or replace clinical care.
