What it is
HelpHero is a no-code onboarding tool for SaaS product, customer success, and growth teams. It creates multi-step tours that highlight interface elements across pages, with text that can include user properties. Checklists track onboarding tasks, while hotspots show contextual prompts on click or hover. Teams can target tours by language, device, browser, and custom user properties, and create different pathways based on those properties. Analytics track tour interactions and step completion; listed plan features also include drill-down analysis and A/B testing. Installation uses a JavaScript snippet added directly or through Google Tag Manager or WordPress. HelpHero supports Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, and works with HTML-based client-side and server-side apps. It supports web-based mobile and tablet apps, but not native mobile apps. Tours can also be accessed through the HelpHero Messenger app in Intercom Messenger. There is no free plan, and a 14-day trial is listed. The plan for up to 1,000 monthly active users costs $55 a month; higher listed tiers extend to 20,000 users for $299 a month.
