Context-aware help appears exactly when and where users need it

The Static Help Problem

  • User clicks help icon—opens full documentation in new tab, loses context of where they were
  • Support ticket: 'How do I export reports?'—answer exists but buried in 200-page user manual
  • Same question asked 50 times because users can't find the one relevant paragraph
  • Help content exists but isn't contextual—users get entire manual instead of specific answer
  • 85% of users give up on self-service and open support tickets instead
Recommended

  • Interactive walkthroughs guide users through complex workflows without leaving the app
  • AI surfaces the exact help content for current page/feature—no manual searching
  • Support tickets drop 45% as users self-serve with context-aware guidance

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about context-sensitive help

Implementation & Integration

Most Popular

Q: How hard is it to implement context-sensitive help?

A: It's surprisingly simple. Add one line of JavaScript to your app, then tag your help content with context identifiers (like page IDs or UI element selectors). Docsie's AI handles the rest—automatically surfacing relevant help based on user context.

Q: Does this work with single-page applications (React, Vue, Angular)?

A: Yes. Docsie's help widget is built for modern JavaScript frameworks. It detects route changes, monitors DOM updates, and adapts to dynamic content—working seamlessly with React, Vue, Angular, and other SPAs.

Q: Can I customize how help content appears?

A: Absolutely. You control tooltip positioning, colors, fonts, animation timing, and interaction patterns. Choose from tooltips, slide-out panels, modals, or inline guidance—or create custom presentation styles.

Content & Targeting

Q: How do I target help content to specific pages or features?

A: Use CSS selectors, page URLs, or custom data attributes to define context. For example, target help content to '#export-button' or 'page:/reports/export' and it automatically appears when users interact with those elements.

Q: Can help content change based on user behavior or role?

A: Yes. Docsie can show different help content based on user properties (role, subscription tier, feature access), behavioral patterns (new vs. experienced user), or current workflow state (step 2 of onboarding vs. daily usage).

Q: How do I prevent help overload and tooltip fatigue?

A: Smart frequency controls limit how often tooltips appear. Track which help content users have seen, implement progressive disclosure (show advanced tips only after basics), and use analytics to identify and disable low-engagement tooltips.

Analytics & Optimization

Q: Can I see which help content users actually engage with?

A: Yes. Docsie tracks help content views, clicks, dismissals, and time spent. See which features generate most help requests, identify confusing UI elements, and optimize guidance based on actual usage patterns.

Q: How do I know if context-sensitive help is reducing support tickets?

A: Compare support ticket volume before and after implementation, filtered by topic. Most customers see 30-50% reduction in tickets for features with good in-app guidance. Docsie's analytics dashboard shows self-service success rates.
