About Userlane

Userlane helps large organisations get value from the business software they already pay for. It has two parts. Application Intelligence shows which apps and AI tools employees actually use, including unapproved ones, scores adoption health and tracks goals over time. Contextual Assistance puts step-by-step guidance, answers and data quality checks inside applications such as SAP, Salesforce, Workday or Microsoft Dynamics, so staff don't have to leave their work to look things up. It is rolled out as a browser extension pushed through group policy or device management, without code changes to the target apps. The company focuses on regulated sectors like healthcare, insurance, manufacturing and the public sector, and highlights ISO 27001 certification and GDPR compliance. Pricing is quote-based, either per application with unlimited users or by consumption. It is aimed at employee-facing software, not onboarding customers into your own product.

Best for: IT and HR teams in regulated organisations rolling out complex internal software like SAP or EHR systems.
