Open a pulse program to review its Trend, Next cycle, Cycles, and Settings tabs.

Next cycle

Use Next cycle to confirm timing and the expected question composition. Anchored and pinned questions take priority; rotating questions are selected from the remaining pool.

Cycle lifecycle

A cycle runs the same sequence every time, then hands off to the next one. The program keeps going without you restarting it. Each step in detail:
  1. The scheduler identifies a program that is due.
  2. Culture Vibe materializes a cycle survey and its questions.
  3. Invitations are prepared and sent.
  4. Reminders run during the response window.
  5. A mid-cycle snapshot may appear when the anonymity gate is met.
  6. The cycle closes and final analysis is calculated.

Review cycle history

The Cycles tab lets you inspect previous cycle status and open the survey-level analysis for a specific cycle.

Make changes carefully

Update future scheduling or pool settings in Settings. Do not assume a changed anchor remains comparable to its old wording.
Avoid editing timing while a cycle is actively opening or closing. Confirm the current cycle status before changing the program.
The composition rules prioritize required content and advance through the pool over multiple cycles. It may be selected in a later cycle.
The response count may not meet the anonymity threshold. Final results follow the same privacy principle.
Reminder processing uses invitation status so completed participants are not treated as pending.
