Driving Innovation in the AI Search Space
While MC+A and Pulse have historically operated in similar spaces, this partnership demonstrates a shared commitment to solving some of the toughest challenges in modern search infrastructure. By working together, the two companies are delivering an unmatched combination of support services and technology:
- MC+A’s expertise in delivering custom, AI-driven search and analytics solutions for enterprises.
- Pulse’s proactive platform, which acts as an AI SRE dedicated to your search infrastructure — fully automated and always on to analyze Elasticsearch clusters, detect issues before they escalate, and provide actionable recommendations backed by world-class search experts.
This collaboration will allow enterprises to move beyond traditional reactive support models, achieving real-time visibility, proactive performance tuning, and predictive issue prevention.

The partnership also represents a rare public collaboration between two companies that might otherwise be seen as indirect competitors in the AI search space. Both MC+A and Pulse recognize that today’s search ecosystem is complex and fragmented, and that collaboration—rather than competition—is the key to driving innovation and value for customers.
