"Product onboarding is essential to customer activation and retention, but building great onboarding is difficult and time consuming. We know because we experienced this problem firsthand at our previous startup where we spent enormous amounts of time building onboarding and education for our app through trial and error. Time that could’ve been spent developing our core product offering." - Eric Brownrout, Co-Founder of Frigade

Frigade's API and open source SDK make it easy to build, manage, and scale great mobile onboarding experiences. Developers can quickly build beautiful onboarding within their own app UI and make instant changes to copy, assets, and logic via API. It also provides users access to industry best practices and allows them to target users using tools like Segment and MixPanel.

The mobile app development market is expected to reach $366B by 2030 and over 50,000 apps launch monthly on the Apple App Store alone, making it increasingly important for developers to be able to create effective product onboarding.
