Workflow

Move from activation drop-off to a fixable behavior pattern.

  1. 01

    Define the failed cohort.

    Start with users who reached a setup, import, workspace, or first-value step but did not complete it.

  2. 02

    Watch comparable sessions.

    Review failed sessions next to successful ones from the same journey so the difference is visible.

  3. 03

    Tag observable friction.

    Use behavior labels such as setup confusion, missing guidance, trust check, loop-back, or technical dead end.

  4. 04

    Ask only when behavior is ambiguous.

    Trigger a short follow-up question at the stuck step when replay shows friction but not the reason.

Product path

Use replay, AI search, and targeted surveys in one review loop.

  • Search for sessions that reached the onboarding step but missed the activation outcome.
  • Prioritize repeated blockers before one vivid replay takes over the roadmap.
  • Launch a contextual survey when the next fix depends on the user's reason.

Start with the onboarding sessions that already failed.

Monolytics helps the team see the exact failed path before changing setup copy, checklists, or activation nudges.

Turn onboarding replays into a focused activation review.

These guides help teams choose the failed cohort, tag repeated friction, and decide what to ask when behavior alone is ambiguous.
