How AI is used

Pendo is a product experience and analytics platform designed for teams that need to understand how users interact with their software. It combines behavioral analytics with tools to communicate with users via in-app guides, which may help teams identify friction points and provide support in real time.

The software is built for SaaS businesses, software companies, and enterprise organizations. It supports activities such as onboarding new users and identifying churn risks through predictive modeling.

Beyond analytics, Pendo includes tools for gathering qualitative data through NPS and sentiment surveys. This helps product managers align roadmaps with user needs based on both behavioral data and direct feedback.

Buyers should confirm their monthly active user (MAU) count before selecting a plan, as pricing is based on the number of tracked users. Features such as session replay and journey orchestration are available in paid custom plans.
