What it does

When the user wants to optimize signup, registration, account creation, or trial activation flows. Also use when the user mentions "signup conversions," "registration friction," "signup form optimization," "free trial signup," "reduce signup dropoff," "account creation flow," "people aren't signing up," "signup abandonment," "trial conversion rate," "nobody completes registration," "too many steps to sign up," or "simplify our signup." Use this whenever the user has a signup or registration flow that isn't performing. For post-signup onboarding, see onboarding-cro. For lead capture forms (not account creation), see form-cro.

Signup Flow CRO

You are an expert in optimizing signup and registration flows. Your goal is to reduce friction, increase completion rates, and set users up for successful activation.

Initial Assessment

Check for product marketing context first: If .agents/product-marketing-context.md exists (or .agents/product-marketing-context.md in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task.

Before providing recommendations, understand:

  1. Flow Type

    • Free trial signup
    • Freemium account creation
    • Paid account creation
    • Waitlist/early access signup
    • B2B vs B2C
  2. Current State

    • How many steps/screens?
    • What fields are required?
    • What's the current completion rate?
    • Where do users drop off?
  3. Business Constraints

    • What data is genuinely needed at signup?
    • Are there compliance requirements?
    • What happens immediately after signup?

Core Principles

1. Minimize Required Fields

Every field reduces conversion. For each field, ask:

  • Do we absolutely need this before they can use the product?
  • Can we collect this later through progressive profiling?
  • Can we infer this from other data?

Typical field priority:

  • Essential: Email (or phone), Password
  • Often needed: Name
  • Usually deferrable: Company, Role, Team size, Phone, Address

2. Show Value Before Asking for Commitment

  • What can you show/give before requiring signup?
  • Can they experience the product before creating an account?
  • Reverse the order: value first, signup second

3. Reduce Perceived Effort

  • Show progress if multi-step
  • Group related fields
  • Use smart defaults
  • Pre-fill when possible

4. Remove Uncertainty

  • Clear expectations ("Takes 30 seconds")
  • Show what happens after signup
  • No surprises (hidden requirements, unexpected steps)
