The Appcues alternative

Gleap is the best all-in-one Appcues alternative. Appcues prices per monthly active user, starting at $249/mo (Essentials) and ~$879/mo (Growth) at 2,500 MAUs, with seat limits and key features locked to higher tiers. Gleap delivers product tours, onboarding checklists, and tooltips for a flat $149/mo with unlimited seats and unlimited tracked users - plus AI support, in-app bug reporting, and a product roadmap that Appcues does not offer. AI usage is billed by actual tokens and selected model.

As of 2026, Appcues is priced per monthly active user (MAU). Essentials starts around $249/mo for up to 2,500 MAUs billed annually, Growth runs roughly $879/mo at 2,500 MAUs and climbs as MAUs grow, and Enterprise is custom. Plans also carry user-license limits, and features like checklists, A/B testing, and advanced targeting are gated to higher tiers. Gleap Team is a flat $149/mo with unlimited seats, and AI usage is billed by actual tokens and selected model.

Yes. Gleap builds product tours, onboarding checklists, tooltips, hotspots, and in-app adoption flows - the same patterns Appcues is known for - with native SDKs for iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter. The difference is everything around it: AI support, bug reporting, surveys, and a roadmap live in the same platform on a flat plan.

Appcues stops at in-app guidance. Gleap adds an AI support agent that resolves around 80% of tier-1 inbound (Kai), in-app bug reporting with session replay that turns confirmed bugs into pull requests (Kai Code), and a roadmap that auto-captures and revenue-weights feature requests then ships a changelog (Kai PM). None of these exist in Appcues.

Yes. Appcues pricing scales with monthly active users, so a Growth plan can run ~$879/mo at 2,500 MAUs and ~$1,150/mo+ at 5,000 MAUs. Gleap stays a flat $149/mo on the Team plan regardless of tracked users or seats - see pricing. AI usage is billed separately by actual tokens and selected model, which is a different model from per-resolution fees.
