Automate Customer Onboarding from Day One
Turn the messy handoff between sales and delivery into a seamless, automated experience. Every new customer gets the same consistent onboarding — no missed steps, no manual follow-ups.
The problem
- New customers wait days for account setup while tasks are tracked in spreadsheets.
- Onboarding steps are missed when handoffs between sales, ops, and support break down.
- No visibility into onboarding progress leads to poor first impressions.

Onboarding automation FAQ
Which project management tools can be part of the onboarding flow?
We regularly integrate Asana, Monday.com, ClickUp, Jira, and others. If your tool has an API or a connector on Zapier, Make, or n8n, it can be part of the workflow.
Can onboarding steps differ by customer tier or product?
Yes. Conditional logic routes each customer through the right onboarding path based on tier, product, region, or any other data point from your CRM.
How do customers see their onboarding progress?
Customers receive automated status emails at key milestones. For teams that want more visibility, we can also connect a client portal or shared dashboard.
What triggers the onboarding?
The most common trigger is a deal stage change (e.g., closed-won) in your CRM. It can also be a form submission, a signed contract in DocuSign, or a manual trigger for edge cases.
