User onboarding

User onboarding tools guide new users through a product with tooltips, walkthroughs, checklists and in-app messages, and record how people move through those flows. Appcues, Pendo, WalkMe, Whatfix and Elevio are typical examples; Arengu handles sign-up flows and Instabot adds conversational prompts. They are mostly found on SaaS products, web applications and customer portals rather than brochure sites, run by companies with a product or customer success team. This list is interesting for product analytics and session replay vendors, customer success and support platforms, UX consultants and in-app messaging competitors: an onboarding tool shows a company that measures activation and retention and already spends on the experience after sign-up.
