An Appcues alternative focused on help content, not campaigns
Appcues is a product-adoption and engagement platform: in-app flows, checklists, NPS, and lifecycle messaging across web and mobile, driven by targeting and experiments. Steperly solves the content half of adoption — record a workflow once and publish it as a live walkthrough, help-center article, video, and demo.

Frequently asked questions
Is Steperly a good Appcues alternative?
For guidance content, yes: Steperly creates walkthroughs, guides, videos, and help centers from one recording. For lifecycle campaigns with segmentation and experiments, Appcues is the purpose-built tool.
Does Steperly support in-app guidance like Appcues flows?
Yes — Help Mode runs live in-app walkthroughs generated from workflow recordings, anchored to the real product screens rather than assembled step by step in a flow builder.
Why choose Steperly as a smaller team?
Cost and upkeep. Flat workspace pricing, and content that comes from recordings — so updating a changed flow means re-recording a step, not re-building a campaign.
