Claims that adding contextual help inside the app increases trial-to-paid conversion and reduces drop-off by keeping users from leaving the UI. Implementation details: help can be tooltips for obscure fields, banners that occupy ~70–80% of the screen for announcements, product tours to walk users through new UIs, chat widgets for contextual links, and surveys fired around 30–60 days to capture pain points. Messages come from either built-in code or integrated third‑party in‑app messaging services.
