Teardown: the onboarding rebuild that doubled week-one activation
A high-value feature sat three taps deep, and most users never found it in week one. The fix wasn't a tooltip.

The feature 60% of users never found
This teardown covers a product where a high-value feature sat three taps deep, and most new users never reached it in week one. The fix wasn't a tooltip. It was rebuilding onboarding around the user's first-session intent, so the feature surfaced exactly when it was relevant.
From 38% to 71%
Contextual nudges beat generic product tours almost every time, because they respect what the user is already trying to do. Week-one activation nearly doubled. Onboarding isn't a tour of your product. It's the shortest path to the user's first real win.
