UI Pattern Builder: Userpilot Chrome Extension is a lightweight tool to build highly customizable in-app messages on top of your web application with zero code.

Tracking and Contextual Triggering: Userpilot client side SDK can be installed on your web application to track users' properties and events. It also serves as a triggering layer for UI components built through our tools. It is highly performant and algorithm centric where its functionality is designed to integrate commonly with all web applications.

Data Segmentation: Through tracking user properties and event capturing, our customers are able to segment their users into compositions on demand through an expressive set of queries. That means having the data constructed in queryable way and consistent across all nodes in a distributed environment is a must.

Real-time infrastructure: We support contextual triggering based on user journey and interactions. The eligibility of each product experience needs to be evaluated and pushed in sub-second latencies.
