Bento allows product teams to add native-looking onboarding checklists and feature activation UX into their product with no code. Now with BentoAI, these guides can be generated by pasting in existing help articles, videos, or recording clicks in app.
Hey Product Hunt,
I’m Emily, the founder of Bento, and this time, we’re so excited to be properly launching Bento, alongside our most meaningful upgrade yet – BentoAI.
Bento is a platform that enables Product managers and designers to craft effective in-product user experiences to activate new customers and deepen their usage of the product. For the past few years, we’ve enabled forward-thinking b2b software companies like Ashby, Ironclad, and Shopmonkey to launch self-serve onboarding and “Everboarding”.
But one of the most challenging aspects has always been knowing what to build and how to build it well.
A few months ago, we published our Figma templates of UX components that are commonly used in activation and onboarding.
Today, we’re taking it a step further and bringing AI powered UX building!
🚀 *Create diverse experiences*
BentoAI offers an array of inputs – from videos and help articles to click-through interactions. With these versatile building blocks, you can effortlessly craft various guides, such as onboarding checklists, contextual guides, or interactive click-through flows. For example:
- Take your “getting started” help article and input that link to generate a multistep checklist guide which you can embed in your product’s dashboard or homepage
- Make a Loom recording of you walking through an advanced feature, and Bento can generate a contextual guide which you can embed on that particular page of your product.
- Have Bento record you clicking through a core workflow, and then produce a multistep clickthrough flow guide.
🌟 *Best practices out of the box*
Our guides are more than just templates; they embody the best practices drawn from a wealth of customer guides. They’re tuned for length, tone and calls to action
🎨 *Customize effortlessly*
We understand that each product is unique and UX flows are ultimately subjective. After BentoAI produces a guide from your inputs, you can easily tailor the content and styling to make it your own. You can even split test different versions to see the impact of length, tone or content.
We’re excited to see what you build, and together, ensure that your users and customers get the most value from your products!
Such a great feature that makes scaling and improving the customer experience so much easier. A big win for customer success teams that are constantly juggling multiple implementations and onboardings at the same time.
Congratulations on the launch Emily!
This will help a lot of founders streamline their onboarding and help articles and resources and deploy them in all 3 formats: text, audio and video type!
I'm excited to learn more about BentoAI! How can this product help teams improve user onboarding and feature activation? What are the most effective use cases you've seen?
Great launch and such a perfect application for AI! The automation of help centre articles into onboarding flows is a great time saver for product teams and will provide an amazing customer experience.
Hey Emily! 🌟
Major kudos on launching the upgraded Bento with BentoAI! 🚀 It sounds like a fantastic tool for product teams aiming to enhance user experiences seamlessly.
Congrats on the launch! Looks like you've found ways to convert onboarding guides between formats - video recording to doc, or written guide to checkboxes, etc. I know it's probably early but which inputs and outputs are the most popular so far?
Congratulations Emily and team! I'm a big fan of Bento and this upgrade takes it to a new level. It's refreshing to see AI being used to solve real problems!
Exciting to see that it's now even easier to create content in Bento! Congrats on the launch
Congrats on the launch Emily and Bento team!! I love that you're leveraging existing content to make Bento features even more plug and play.
