Where your data lands.

The outcomes of your analysis.

The AI processes your Pendo data into these specific results.

METRICS

Completion rate analysis

The AI looks at guide details to see how many people finish a walkthrough. You'll see exactly where users drop off.

AUDIT

Guide inventory check

Your agent lists every active guide in your account. This helps you find old or redundant walkthroughs that need to be removed.

INSIGHT

Engagement patterns

The AI compares different guides to see which ones drive the most interaction. You'll know which guides actually work.

HUMAN

Manual guide edits

The AI cannot change your guide content or settings. You still need to log into Pendo to edit the actual walkthroughs.
