Former Chief Product Officer, Amplitude
Amplitude’s mission couldn’t be simpler—we help people build better products and digital experiences. That’s why we built the broadest and deepest digital analytics platform on the market. Teams around the world use it to gain a deeper understanding of user behaviors and build great digital experiences that deliver the outcomes they want. That could be improving user onboarding, increasing feature adoption, optimizing conversion, or personalizing experiences.
However, customers have often asked if we could go further. They rely on Amplitude to get insights about their users, but they also want our help encouraging the user behaviors they want. They’ve asked for guides to help with onboarding, ways to share announcements with their users directly in the app, and the ability to capture user feedback in real time.
We started to explore how we could offer these capabilities to our customers, but we wanted to do it in a way that was better than the status quo. In this AI-powered world, couldn’t these user assistance technologies actually help customers instead of annoy them? Couldn’t they be dynamic based on the task at hand rather than generic pop-ups?
That’s when we met the Command AI team. They’re solving this exact problem in a new way—powered by AI.
Why we love Command AI
Command AI provides intuitive, AI-powered user assistance to make complex software easier to adopt and navigate. It offers in-product nudges and tours, onboarding guides, and surveys. And it does all of this in a non-annoying way. I know what you’re thinking: "Product popups? Those are so irritating." I agree, and I promise, this isn’t that.
Command AI’s co-founders, James Evans and Vinay Ayyala, built the next generation of digital adoption technology by putting the user first and using AI to personalize their experience. Its in-product prompts take user emotions, like confusion and frustration, into account. So if someone is rage-clicking, it’s probably not the right time to promote a special offer. Command AI also offers precise user targeting, contextual triggers, rate limits, and dozens of other big-little details that make the experience great.
The result is a guided user journey that is personalized, unobtrusive, and actually helpful. Users love it because it sets them up to be successful. Companies love
