Puls · Your business guide

Hey, I’m Puls.

Box-truck business. Straight answers.

Public beta · Limits & privacy

Uses general AI knowledge, live web research when needed, and dated BTO references. Recommendations link to BTO pages. External research links are available under Sources; this is not a live load board. Messages and answers are stored by BTO and sent to OpenAI to provide answers. Do not share sensitive personal or business information. Five messages per browser per day, with 10 seconds between messages. Shared network limits also apply. Public access pauses when the daily AI budget is unavailable and resets at midnight Chicago time. Up to 24 exchanges provide conversation context; long answers may be shortened and older details can fall outside that window. An essential browser cookie and a daily hashed network identifier help enforce limits; a random tab-session chat pointer lets you continue across public pages without storing your messages on this device. Page contents and calculator entries are not automatically sent to Puls; no sign-in is required. Estimates are not guarantees. Don’t enter API keys or sensitive documents here.

Research notes

Official application rechecked November 3, 2026 and explicitly lists Owner operator Sprinter Van separately from semi-truck owner-operators and CDL-A company drivers. That equipment-specific recruiting evidence and reachable intake meet BTO's Source checked definition. Exact van dimensions, model year, payload, insurance, operating-authority arrangement, fees, contract terms and current market availability remain unconfirmed. General owner-operator and semi-truck terms are not automatically Sprinter requirements. Source checked is not acceptance, an open local route, verified earnings or payment assurance. No application was submitted. Empire National is distinct from Empire Delivery.
