Three real differences

1

No guide building

UserGuiding counts how many guides you can build. Dobi builds the guidance himself.

2

Nothing switches off

On UserGuiding, guides stop showing when you pass your user limit. Dobi's yearly plans have no user caps.

3

He talks back

Users ask in plain words. Dobi answers, then flies to the right button and lights it up.

Questions

What is the best UserGuiding alternative?

If you want guidance without building guides, and no user limits, Dobi by Veyra is a strong UserGuiding alternative: an AI guide that learns your product, answers users and relearns after every update. If you have under 2,000 users and want the lowest price, UserGuiding costs less.

Is Dobi cheaper than UserGuiding?

For small products, yes: Dobi Starter is £99 a month for up to 1,000 users, with AI included. UserGuiding starts at $249 a month billed yearly for 2,000 users. For bigger products, Dobi is £6,000 a year per platform with no user caps, and you never build or fix a tour.

Do I have to build guides in Dobi?

No. Dobi scans your product and learns it himself. You can still add your own notes and answers.

Can I switch from UserGuiding to Dobi?

Yes. Add Dobi's one line of code, let him learn your product, then remove UserGuiding when you are ready. Try Dobi free for 14 days first.
