We keep our own time now.
Solvelop is a veteran-owned software house in High Point, North Carolina.
For years we built software for everyone else. These days we build and run
our own - Pulse, CLOC,
Pilgrim, Napkin, and
Woody - every one of them a tool we needed here before it
was a product.

Veteran-owned
products // built here, run here
Five products of our own. Two built for other companies.
Every one of ours started as something we needed to run this place,
ran in production for years, and earned its way out. Designed, coded,
hosted, and supported in-house. When you write to support, the person
who built it answers.

pulses.day // scheduling
Pulse
One number, every timezone. Pulse divides the UTC
day into 1000 millidays, so a moment is a single global value instead
of a grid of city times.
@500 .pulse = noon UTC, read the same way in
every city on earth.
Connect Google or Microsoft calendars, share one booking link, and
drop live anchors into Slack, Discord, Chrome, and a Windows tray
clock. Free to use.

cloc.in // chronological list of changes
CLOC
Working memory for solo consultants. Every client,
project, task, file, and SQL script you have ever written - searchable,
organized, and private to you.
The ChangeLog: a dated journal per project, so
"what did I do in March" always has an answer.
Import tasks from Asana, Wrike, or GitHub. Attach files to private
cloud storage. Hand clients a live status link. Running in some form
since 1999.
Core $10/mo · Pro $25/mo · 14-day free trial

pilgrimcrm.com // mobile crm
Pilgrim
The account, in your hand. A mobile CRM for
manufacturers whose customer history is locked inside the ERP. Reps
pull the record on a dealer floor instead of back at a desk.
Built for your ERP

napkin.recipes // family recipes
Napkin
The index card, kept safe. A private archive for
the handwritten recipes that only exist in one place. No ads, no
algorithm, no life story before the ingredients.
Private by default · Share within a family

gotwoody.com // receipts
Woody
Receipts you can actually find again. Capture it
when it is handed to you, file it once, and have it waiting at tax
time instead of in a glovebox.

changelog // the company, as a dated journal
Every company is a chronological list of changes.
CLOC keeps one for your projects. This one is ours.

2020
Solvelop, LLC
The practice becomes a company in High Point, North Carolina.
Custom software, mobile apps, VoIP, integrations - for clients across
the country, paid in dollars, crypto, or trade. The barter stories are
true. And in the toolbox on day one: CLOC, the
founder's private system of record, already running since 1999.
-
2021
The idea, in writing
The first article about what would become Pulse is
published: the case for keeping time as one global number instead of a
grid of timezones. No product yet - just the argument for one.
-
2023
Other people's products
Two builds go out under someone else's name. Linksaw,
link shortening and custom QR codes, and Wally, an
SMS and email platform rebuilt from a legacy codebase. Designed and
coded here, owned and run by Linksaw LLC and Wally Solutions LLC.

2024
A clock in the footer
The 2021 idea becomes a fixture: a Universal Internet Time clock
ships at the bottom of this site. It refuses to stay a footnote.
-
2025
The side projects become the point
The footer clock grows into Pulse, a scheduling
product. The 1999 toolkit is rebuilt as CLOC, a
subscription anyone can use. Both ship with their own domains, their
own support, and their own roadmaps.

2026
The rest of the toolbox follows
Three more internal tools stop being internal. Pilgrim,
built to get customer history out of an ERP and onto a phone.
Napkin, built to keep a family's handwritten recipes
from disappearing. Woody, built because receipts were
piling up faster than anyone would file them. Each one had already run
for years before it got a domain.

A product company
Seven products shipped, five of them ours to run. None were market
research - every one was a problem we had first and solved for
ourselves, which is also why they stay maintained. Client work
continues quietly, in small volume and by referral - if you need us,
ask. But the products are the business.
