Executive Summary

Intercom Product Tours are interactive, step-by-step guides designed to help users understand and navigate a product effectively. They are an advanced feature within Intercom's customer engagement platform, typically bundled as part of the 'Proactive Support Plus' add-on. These tours serve multiple purposes, including onboarding new users, announcing and demonstrating new features, and guiding customers through complex workflows or setup processes. By providing a structured and engaging learning experience, Product Tours aim to improve product adoption, reduce the volume of support inquiries, and enhance the overall customer experience. Integrated with Intercom's broader messaging and campaign capabilities, Product Tours can be targeted to specific user segments based on behavior or attributes, ensuring relevant and timely guidance. While Intercom's Fin AI agent handles customer service queries, Product Tours focus on proactive user education and engagement.
