✨ Build Your Onboarding with AI

Usertour ships a built-in MCP server: connect an AI assistant like Claude Code, Cursor or Codex, describe the experience you want, and it builds production-ready onboarding directly in your project — reading your app's design system to match the styling, and even wiring up the SDK on its own if it isn't installed yet.

Point any MCP client at the endpoint — it discovers the authorization flow on its own:

https://mcp.usertour.io/mcp

Using Claude Code? The plugin wires the MCP connection and the authoring skills in one:

/plugin marketplace add usertour/skills
/plugin install usertour@usertour

Per-client steps for Cursor, Codex, VS Code, ChatGPT and more: MCP connection guide.

Self-hosting? Use your own instance's URL instead — it's shown in Settings → MCP (for the Claude Code plugin, export it before launching):

export USERTOUR_MCP_URL="https://<your-usertour-host>/mcp"

Below: real prompts and the unedited results. Full walkthrough with every prompt — including AI-driven analytics — in Build Your Onboarding with AI.

🪄 "Build an onboarding flow for the Create Task feature"

Using Usertour, build a user onboarding flow for the Create Task feature.

Requirements:
1. The visual theme must match the website's existing design.
2. The flow must be production-ready and suitable for launch.
3. Every step should provide genuine value to users. Avoid adding steps
   simply for the sake of having a flow—the experience should help users
   understand and successfully use the feature.

📋 "Create a product feedback survey"

Create a survey to collect user feedback about the product's different
features, including:

* Feature ratings
* Overall satisfaction
* Usability feedback
* Suggestions for improvement
* Open-ended comments

The survey should be thoughtfully structured and suitable for production use.

🎬 "A modal that plays this YouTube video"

Create a one-step flow containing a modal that displays this YouTube video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIaOBAjvc38

Add supporting copy based on the theme:

Sam Altman: "Never a Better Time to Do a Startup"

The copy should briefly introduce the video, explain why it is relevant,
and encourage users to watch it.
