activation stuck at 30%. sound familiar?
01
the activation plateau
you ship a better onboarding flow. activation ticks up 2%. the ceiling is 30% and it doesn't move. users aren't confused about features — they're confused about what to do first.
02
videos nobody finishes
the five-minute walkthrough video gets abandoned at the 40-second mark. the loom you sent doesn't match the current UI. the user closes the tab.
03
product tours that break
you ship a tour in week one. you redesign the nav in week four. the tour breaks and nobody notices until a new user tweets about it. you don't have bandwidth to rebuild it.
guidance that adapts. not a tour that breaks.
flows that watch the screen
aside reads the user's actual screen state — not what you assumed they'd see. it adapts the guidance to where they actually are, every step, every session.
visual activation funnel
step-by-step completion rates for every guided flow. spot where users drop off, fix the step — not the tour.
session replay
replay any guided session with video, synchronized audio, and auto-markers on stuck points.
activation without the hand-holding.
