Usertour
What it is
Usertour creates in-app onboarding and feature-adoption experiences through product tours, checklists, surveys and NPS prompts, banners, launchers, and resource centers. Its SDK supports React, Vue, and plain JavaScript, while a visual builder lets teams select interface elements without code changes and publish updates that go live in seconds. Flows can trigger from user attributes, events, and page rules, with analytics for views, unique views, completion, and drop-off. An MCP server connects Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex to help match an app’s design, wire the SDK, and publish experiences. Usertour’s core is MIT-licensed, publicly available, and self-hostable with Docker. The free Hobby plan lists 5,000 sessions monthly, one team member, one environment, and community support. Paid plans start at $59.00 per month for Starter.
