Documentation

eltPulse is a visual ELT control plane for any warehouse — drag-and-drop canvas, Pulse AI, Fivetran-competitive connectors with run slices, and Git-native code you own. Use managed execution by default or deploy a gateway in your VPC. These guides cover the product end to end.

What you can do

• Design visually — drag sources, dbt transforms, and destinations on the canvas; same pipeline as the form builder.
• Build with Pulse AI — describe pipelines in plain English; AI scaffolds config and patches the graph (see Pulse AI).
• Sync 123+ connectors — dlt and Sling codegen, verified incremental wiring, honest slice labels (see Connectors).
• Run and observe — managed workers, live telemetry, webhooks, metrics, and 14-day activity charts.
• Ship to Git — export artifacts or auto-push pipeline YAML on save when GitHub is connected.
