Tour Kit
What it is
Tour Kit is a web library for developers creating product tours and onboarding flows in web applications. Its tour tools include guided steps, spotlight overlays, persistent hints, and beacons. Additional packages provide checklists with dependencies and progress tracking, announcements, feature adoption tracking, and in-app surveys. The site lists bindings for React, Vue, and Svelte, with Next.js among its supported frameworks. Developers can combine the library’s logic with their own interface or use its pre-styled components; shadcn/ui compatibility is also listed. Analytics plugins are available for PostHog, Mixpanel, Amplitude, and Google Analytics 4. An AI package connects through the Vercel AI SDK to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or other supported models, but requires a server route to protect the model API key. The maker says Tour Kit targets WCAG 2.1 AA and includes keyboard navigation, focus management, and screen-reader support. Packages are under BSL 1.1, free for development and evaluation; published versions convert to MIT on their Change Date. Production plans include $9.99 one-time for one project, $49.00 one-time for five, and $299.00 one-time for unlimited projects.
