Temperature where the birds are
Small wireless sensors clip on the feed line at bird height. You see hot and cold zones before litter or birds tell the story.
For commercial poultry growers
Know something is wrong before you lose birds or sleep.
PoultryPulse monitors your poultry houses around the clock, even when you're away. By combining temperature, humidity, ammonia, water flow, and vibration sensors, along with integration into your existing house controllers, PoultryPulse gives you real-time insight into the health and performance of every house.
Our vibration sensors can detect whether motors are running normally and identify unusual vibrations that may indicate failing fan bearings or other mechanical issues—helping you catch problems before they become costly failures.
Premium systems add AI-powered cameras that monitor flock activity and behavior. A sudden decrease in movement can serve as an early warning sign of health, environmental, or equipment issues before they're visible to the human eye.
When something falls outside your configured thresholds, PoultryPulse immediately alerts you on your phone, keeping you connected to your farm no matter where you are. PoultryPulse helps you keep your finger on the pulse of your operations.
The problems that cost you birds — and sleep
Most losses don't happen at 10 AM when you're in the house. They start quietly overnight and show up at the next morninga walk-through. PoultryPulse is built to catch the early signs.
- Hot or cold spots — a dead fan, poor airflow, or a curtain that didn't close
- Water trouble — a line issue, a leak, or birds drinking less (often the first sign of a sick flock)
- Equipment that should be running but isn't — fans, feed augers, water pumps
- Power or generator issues — you need to know before the house goes dark
- A flock that goes quiet — birds moving less than usual can mean heat stress, illness, or something wrong with the environment before water or walk-through tells you
- Controller alarms nobody sees — your Chore-Time or other house computer already knows; we make sure you do too
What we watch for you
PoultryPulse adds an extra set of eyes. It works alongside the house controller you already trust — we don't replace it.
Drinking water
We track how much water the flock uses. A sudden drop or spike often means something is wrong long before you'd notice on a walk-through.
Fans, feeders, and pumps
If equipment that should be running goes quiet — or runs when it shouldn't — you hear about it on your phone, not at sunrise.
Your house controller's alarms
We tie into the alarms your Chore-Time, Big Dutchman, Rotem, or other system already raises. Same signals — delivered to you, not just the panel in the house.
Power and backup power
Outages and generator runs matter. Get notified when the grid drops or when the gen kicks on so you can act before birds get cold or hot.
AI cameras — flock activity
Premium installs include cameras that watch bird movement across the house. On-device AI scores how active the flock is — no video leaves your farm. If activity drops sharply, you get the same kind of heads-up as a water or temp alert.
Alerts on your phone
Android and iPhone apps. Push notifications when something needs attention. Acknowledge from the truck on the way to the farm.
How it works
Simple setup in the house. Clear alerts on your phone. No IT department required.
- Sensors and cameras go where they matter. Wireless temperature/humidity/ammonia sensors that have a 6 month re-chargeable battery magnetically clips on the feed lines, a water flow meter on the main water line, monitors on equipment and power — and with the Premium pakage, AI cameras that score flock activity in the house.
- One box in the house ties it together. It collects readings from sensors, cameras, and your existing controller, then beams summaries to your farm receiver over LoRa — no internet hookup needed in the house. Camera video stays local; only activity scores go out.
- PoultryPulse watches and notifies. Cold zone? Water drop? Flock gone quiet? Fan stopped? Controller alarm? You and your crew get an alert — with enough detail to decide whether to drive out tonight or first thing in the morning.
Standard install runs about $2,000 per house. Premium adds AI flock-activity cameras, ammonia monitoring, and deeper equipment health tracking.
Who it's for
Broiler, pullet, layer, turkey, and quail operations — anyone running commercial houses who wants early warning without ripping out the system they already run on.
If you've ever driven to a house at 4 AM because something felt off, or found a problem at walk-through that started hours earlier, PoultryPulse is for you.
What growers are saying
We're putting PoultryPulse in houses now. Real quotes from pilot growers will land here as we go — here's the kind of feedback we're aiming for.
“The flock activity alert fired before water use dropped. Birds were piling up on one end — we caught a fan issue we would've missed until morning.”
“I got a text about a cold zone at 2 AM. Fan had quit on the far end — we fixed it before walk-through and never lost a bird over it.”
“My Chore-Time still runs the house. PoultryPulse just makes sure I see the alarms when I'm not in the office.”
“Water use dropped on House 3 before the birds looked off. That heads-up alone was worth it.”
Common questions
Does PoultryPulse replace my Chore-Time or house controller?
No. Your existing controller still runs ventilation, heat, and feed/water programs. PoultryPulse sits alongside it — extra sensors where wired ones don't reach, plus alerts on your phone when something drifts off or the controller raises an alarm.
How much does it cost?
A typical Standard house install runs about $2,000 for hardware and setup. Premium adds AI flock-activity cameras and extra sensors. After install, monitoring is a monthly service fee (exact pricing depends on how many houses and which package you choose). Georgia pilot partners: first installs are free in exchange for feedback.
Does each chicken house need its own internet?
No. You don't need Wi‑Fi or a data line in every building. A hub in each house gathers sensor readings and sends them across your farm over LoRa — a long-range, low-power radio built for rural sites. It carries small data packets for miles across open ground, not video or web browsing. One receiver at a place you already have internet — your home, farm office, or shop — picks up every house and connects to PoultryPulse from there.
I'm not great with computers. Is this going to be a headache?
You don't need to be. Install is on us. Day to day, you get plain alerts on your phone — “cold zone in House 2,” “water use down,” “controller alarm.” Tap to acknowledge. The dashboard is there if you want trends, but alerts are the main thing.
How long does install take?
Most houses are a half-day to a full day, depending on size and package. We clip wireless temp sensors on the lines, wire up water and equipment monitors, connect to your controller alarms, and on Premium mount and aim the flock-activity cameras. You keep farming — we handle the setup.
What do the AI cameras actually do?
Premium PoultryPulse systems include multiple strategically mounted cameras that provide a complete view of your flock. An AI engine running on the local in-house computer continuously analyzes bird movement and converts it into an easy-to-understand Flock Activity Score—a virtual flock health check without requiring you to walk the house.
The system learns your operation over time, storing historical activity data for each flock so you can compare current performance against previous flocks in the same house. If activity falls significantly below expected levels, PoultryPulse immediately notifies you, giving you an early warning that something may need attention.
For producers who choose to participate, PoultryPulse also offers an anonymous industry benchmarking program. Your flock's activity score can be compared against aggregated, anonymized data from other participating farms, providing valuable insight into how your flock is performing relative to similar operations. No farm identities, locations, or proprietary information are shared.
To protect your privacy and reduce bandwidth requirements, all AI video processing is performed locally on your farm. PoultryPulse does not upload video footage or rely on cloud-based live streaming—the cameras are used exclusively for on-site analysis, ensuring your data remains under your control.
What happens when I get an alert?
Your phone buzzes with a short message: what happened, which house, and how urgent it looks. You can acknowledge it so your crew knows someone's on it. If it's critical, you can also set up calls or texts to backup contacts — your integrator, farm manager, or night watch.
Georgia pilots — let's talk
We're installing our first houses now. Early partners get the system at no install cost in exchange for honest feedback. Paid monitoring starts from house four onward.
