Quickstart

This guide will walk you through how to set up Sumatra and publish your first Experience to your site.

1. Log into Sumatra​

If you don't yet have one, get a free trial account at: https://sumatra.ai/signup

2. Add the URL of your site​

When prompted, enter your site's base URL and click Start optimizing.

3. Install the snippet​

If your site is built on Framer, choose the Framer tab. For all other platforms, choose the Other Website tab.

To install the Sumatra snippet and code override on your Framer site, follow these instructions.

4. Create your first experience​

To start simple, let's change the text of a single call-to-action (CTA) button.

On the Experiences tab, click + Add experience.

New Experience

Then select the experience type that best matches how you want to create your test.

Don't worry, all functions are available regardless of the primary type you choose.

Select experience type

When prompted, name your new experience "Alternate CTA", and name the variant "Start Now". Then select + Add variant and name it "Control".

Name the experience

This is what the resulting Experiences view should look like:
