AI That Gets New Users to Value Fast.
Contextual guidance, workflow execution, and first-session activation — all powered by in-product AI.
One-Script-Tag Install
Paste one line of code and walk away. Strides auto-discovers every page, route, and API endpoint in your app without any configuration.
Autonomous Actions
The AI doesn't just answer questions — it executes tasks. Draft an invoice, reassign a ticket, send a report — using your real APIs, in your real product.
100% White-Labeled
Your branding. Your product name. Your colors. Strides is permanently invisible. No "powered by" badge, no Strides mention anywhere in the UI.
Strict Tenant Isolation
Built for multi-tenant SaaS from day one. Every user sees only their own data. Zero cross-tenant bleed at the architecture level.
Live User Context
Strides queries your real APIs for each user's actual data in real time. No static snapshots. No generic answers. The AI knows exactly what's in their account right now.
Streaming Responses
Responses stream back via SSE the moment generation starts. Sub-200ms TTFB globally via our edge CDN. No loading spinners. No waiting.
AI Customer Onboarding Beats Every Static Onboarding Flow Ever Built
Static onboarding flows fail because they can't adapt. A checklist that works for 30% of new users fails the other 70% who have different goals, different starting contexts, and different questions. AI onboarding adapts to each user: it asks what they're trying to do, guides them to the relevant workflow, answers their specific questions, and executes the actions they need — all in the first session.
The most powerful aspect of AI customer onboarding is action execution. A new user who asks "how do I create a report?" gets a different experience from AI that explains the steps versus AI that creates the report for them. The latter reaches the user's aha moment instantly. Strides Build provides the latter.
SaaS products that deploy Strides Build for customer onboarding consistently see the same metrics improvement: higher activation rates (more users reaching the key engagement milestone in session 1), lower day-1 churn (fewer users leaving before finding value), and reduced CS onboarding burden (fewer "how do I..." tickets).

Frequently Asked Questions
Does AI customer onboarding replace or complement existing onboarding flows?
Complement. Strides works alongside your existing onboarding checklist or product tour — it provides on-demand, contextual help that static flows can't provide, filling the gaps where users get stuck.
How does the AI know what each new user is trying to accomplish?
Strides can receive context from your application about the user's goals (from signup survey responses, job role, or use case selection) and tailors the onboarding conversation accordingly.
Can the AI onboard users in multiple languages?
Yes. Strides responds in the user's language automatically. Onboarding works for international users in any language without additional configuration.
Does AI onboarding work differently for SMB vs. enterprise customers?
Yes. SMB onboarding is self-serve and immediate. Enterprise onboarding often involves guided setup with admin configuration. Strides supports both patterns with different AI personas and capability sets per customer segment.
Can I measure the AI's impact on activation rates?
Yes. Strides provides cohort analytics comparing activation rates for AI-assisted vs. non-AI-assisted new users. The improvement is directly measurable.
