== History ==
Tango was founded in 2020 by Ken Babcock, Dan Giovacchini and Brian Shultz, who left [[Harvard Business School]] to develop the company. Its initial product was a browser extension that recorded users' workflows and generated step-by-step documentation with screenshots.<ref name="Hall2021" /><ref name="Cook2021" />

Before its public launch in 2021, Tango tested the extension with pilot customers.<ref name="Hall2021" /><ref name="Poyar2023" /> At the time, the product focused on employee training, particularly for customer-support and sales teams, rather than workflow automation.<ref name="Wheatley2021" /> In August 2021, after initially being financed by its founders, Tango announced a $5.7 million [[seed money|seed funding round]] led by [[Wing Venture Capital]].<ref name="Hall2021" />

Tango publicly launched its browser extension in September 2021.<ref name="Poyar2023" /> By June 2022, the software was available as both a [[Google Chrome|Chrome]] extension and a [[application software|desktop application]]. That month, the company introduced Workspaces, a shared library in which teams could organize, edit and share recorded workflows and folders. Tango also announced a $14 million [[Series A round|Series A funding round]] led by [[Tiger Global Management]].<ref name="Brownridge2022">{{cite web

| access-date = September 18, 2026}}</ref>

In April 2025, Tango launched an artificial intelligence service that expanded the platform beyond workflow documentation to include automation of browser-based tasks.<ref name="Dotson2025" />

== Software ==
Tango uses a Chrome extension to record the steps performed by a user in a web-based application. It captures individual actions and screenshots, adds action labels and generates a step-by-step guide.<ref name="Jayaraman2026" /> Generated guides can be edited, shared through a link, exported as a [[PDF]] or embedded in [[web page|webpages]] and [[wiki]]s.<ref name="Cook2021" /><ref name="Jayaraman2026" />

Tango's "Guide Me" mode presents a generated guide as an interactive overlay within a web application while the user performs the documented task.<ref name="Jayaraman2026" /> Its automation service can perform selected steps in browser-based workflows. The service accepts workflow rules written in [[natural language]] and allows individual steps to be designated for either automated or manual completion.<ref name="Dotson2025" />

== Reception ==
In [[G2 (company)|G2]]'s Summer 2026 Grid Report, Tango ranked sixth among 44 digital adoption platforms and received the designation "Easiest to Use". G2 reported that reviewers valued its speed of guide creation but criticized its limited features, customization options and editing tools.<ref name="Jayaraman2026" />

In 2022, Tango was named a [[Webby Awards]] honoree in the Apps and Software: Productivity, Financial Services & Banking category.<ref name="Webby2022">{{cite web
