Product Tours

Walk users through your product
step by step

Build interactive product tours with a no-code Chrome Extension.
Guide new signups to their first value in minutes, not weeks.

Build and launch tours without touching code

Your product tour goes live from a Chrome Extension. Open it on any page of your app, point and click to select elements, add text, and publish. No developer tickets, no sprint planning, no waiting.

Each tour is a sequence of steps: tooltips that highlight specific elements, modals for context and announcements, and input fields that prompt users to take action. You control the pace, the path, and the conditions for each one.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to create a product tour with UserGuiding

With UserGuiding, you can create product tours that guide users through an application or a website's user interface (UI) and capabilities in four short steps.

To create a product tour with UserGuiding, start by installing the UserGuiding Chrome extension and logging into your dashboard.

Then, you’ll have two options: using UserGuiding’s extension on the webpage you wish to create a guide on or logging into the panel and accessing the feature from there.

If you opt for the panel option, select the “Engagement” tab from the left-hand menu, click on “Guides”, and then “Create a Guide” to begin building your tour.

You can then navigate through your platform and add steps by clicking on elements you want to highlight—each step can include tooltips, modals, or input fields with customizable text, visuals, and triggers.

Once your tour is built, you can set targeting rules based on user behavior, segments, or page URLs to ensure it reaches the right audience at the right time.

When you're ready, simply publish the tour and it will go live inside your app without any need for coding.

What is a product tour?

A product tour is an interactive walkthrough that helps new users understand how to use a product or its key features.

It typically appears inside the product interface and uses tooltips, pop-ups, or progress indicators to show users what to do, step by step.

With product tours, companies shorten the learning curve, improve onboarding, and drive faster time-to-value.

How to create a product tour?
