# What is Jimo?

## **What is Jimo?** <a href="#what-is-jimo" id="what-is-jimo"></a>

**Jimo** is a **low-code platform** that helps you create and deliver engaging in-app user experiences directly within your product. It’s designed to help you **educate, announce, and gather feedback** without writing code, so you can guide users, improve their understanding, and boost engagement at every stage.

-> Think of it as a **toolbox to guide your users**, showing off the best parts of your product to every user.

#### Jimo in One Sentence

Jimo helps you **drive user adoption** with in-product experiences you can design, target, publish, and measure—without shipping code.

#### Two Families of Experiences: Flows vs Self-Serve

Jimo experiences fall into two complementary families:

* **Sequential Flows — you&#x20;*****do*****&#x20;a guided sequence.**\
  They have a **start and an end**. Best for onboarding, announcements, nudges, and task completion.
* **Static Self-Serve — you&#x20;*****use*****&#x20;an always-available surface.**\
  They are **persistent** and accessible on demand. Best for help, shortcuts, and ongoing updates.

> In short: **Flows** move users through a moment. **Self-Serve** is there whenever they need it.

## How Jimo Drives User Engagement and Product Adoption?

Jimo’s approach is grounded in simplicity, adaptability, and iteration. By providing low-code tools to **design**, **publish**, and **monitor** in-app experiences, it enables you to meet users where they are: one feature, message, or workflow at a time.&#x20;

The philosophy is simple: **start small, keep it concise, and learn as you go**. Over time, these building blocks form a comprehensive network of user guidance that drives deeper product adoption.

### Design, Publish, Monitor—Iteratively

1. **Design:** Begin with short, focused experiences (like a quick hint or a single banner) that educate users on one feature or process.
2. **Publish:** Deliver these experiences when and where they’re needed most, ensuring a smooth, timely interaction.
3. **Monitor:** Track how users respond, then refine and improve. This continuous feedback loop helps you adapt to real user behavior.

### Keep It Simple and Personal

**Everyone learns differently.** By mixing Tours, Modals, Surveys, Banners, Hints, Checklists, and Changelogs, you can create a **hybrid experience** tailored to **various learning styles**. Show a subtle hint for a complex workflow, roll out a checklist for onboarding, or deliver a survey to gauge user sentiment, all while maintaining clarity and brevity.

### Grow Your Experience Library Over Time

**Don’t try to build everything at once.** Start with **a few** targeted, **short** experiences that address specific features or events. As your library grows, you can interconnect these experiences, creating a cohesive **ecosystem of user guidance**. The result is a user base that feels supported, informed, and more inclined to explore and adopt new capabilities within your product.

Jimo’s **iterative, user-centric approach** ensures every interaction is a step toward **better engagement, higher satisfaction, and greater product adoption**. By keeping it all **concise, context-rich, and perfectly timed**, you transform each user touchpoint into a moment of genuine value.
