Show HN: Taurus.io - Create a product tour for your web app in 15 minutes

Cool product! Congrats on launching. I can think of several companies off the top of my head who should implement this yesterday. But I have to take issue with the price point. $3 a month? If you're doing it for fun, make it free. Otherwise, the price should be 10x if not 100x your current rate. Trust me, if someone is going to go through the effort of setting up your product, they'll be willing to pay more than $3 a month. At that price point you'd need 1,000 customers just to be ramen profitable!

Ok, so a lot of people are commenting you are charging too little and your general reply was you felt you didn't deliver the value to justify a higher price.<p>In that case, I think you need to search for value. What can you do to make a higher price worthwhile?<p>Here are my thoughts:<p>- Analytics! What are people viewing? Plug it in and tell me what is working and getting mouse time or clicks (or conversions)<p>- Split testing! I'd love to test out two tours to see which converts better.<p>You could make the current version free, to a certain point of traffic and make all the new features points of value to charge a better price.

Feature request that will make this much more valuable - relative adjustment, if you can create a tooltip that will stay near a selector (regardless of browser resizes) and will be responsive (e.g. size and font will adapt based on size) then you'll have something worth not 3$ but 30$ a month easily.<p>I like that you demo the usage of the tool rather than the end result, but for some people it might be too cumbersome, at least make the demo login automatic<p>By the way, a solution to both issues - use your own product to tour your own product.

Looks like Kera.io, great project. I'd love to hear how you guys differ btw :)

Looks really great, congratulations.<p>A few things I picked up on though:<p>1. Couldn't toggle Absolute/Relative after I had placed a tooltip.<p>2. If you position your tooltip then click the "Display Next Button", the arrow moves, but the positioning stays the same (with a side arrow). Just a UI bug.<p>3. Instructions on the syntax to use for javascript event field.<p>4. Binding to an element would be nice.<p>5. Having the "Next" button move on to the next tooltip, hiding the old, and displaying the next. I think I'd like to use that flow rather than seeing all the tips at once.

what's the different with using Bootstrap tour ( <a href="https://github.com/sorich87/bootstrap-tour" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/sorich87/bootstrap-tour</a> ) or Joyride ( <a href="http://www.zurb.com/playground/jquery-joyride-feature-tour-plugin" rel="nofollow">http://www.zurb.com/playground/jquery-joyride-feature-tour-p...</a> ) for example?

Looks cool. I think I would find it more useful if I could see a demo (not of the authoring, but of the result).

I signed up to be notified. But... Please include a quick summary of the app in the notification mail to make us remember what it was, when the time comes.

Beautiful site. Have seen a few of these on HN but your implementation looks the best so far. We need this - looking forward to launch.

This would certainly be useful for a lot of the other Show HN's. Can't wait to see this in production.

Keen to get this setup, we need a product tour but didn't have a good way of building it quickly.

It's not working for me. It just says [object Object] Firefox 16.0.1 on MAC OS X

I think the product is pretty cool. I also really like the design of the site.

This looks pretty sweet. Good job.

Neat tool.
