Tableau Pulse is included in Tableau Cloud licensing rather than sold as a separate standalone product. The official pricing page currently describes Tableau Standard, Enterprise, Cloud+, and Tableau+ editions; exact prices may depend on edition, contract, region, and deployment. Creator, Explorer, and Viewer licenses are available, and every deployment requires at least one Creator license. User-provided annual reference prices are Viewer $15/user/month, Explorer $42/user/month, and Creator $75/user/month. Annual contracts are billed annually; team and enterprise pricing, add-ons, and usage limits require a current quote. Pulse is designed for Tableau Cloud and is not generally available as a separate Tableau Server deployment. Confirm current prices and feature availability on Tableau's official pricing page.

* Pricing is for reference only; see the official site for current pricing.
