If you wanted to see the steps that your users take to reach a key task or conversion, which exploration technique would you use to visualise those steps and see how well they're doing at succeeding or failing at each step?

Funnel exploration is the correct choice because it is specifically designed to visualize the steps users take to complete a task or conversion. It allows you to define a sequence of events and see the progression and drop-off rates at each stage, identifying where users succeed or fail. Free form exploration offers a flexible canvas for data analysis but doesn't inherently provide the sequential step-by-step visualization needed for a user journey. Cohort explorations focus on user behavior over time based on a shared characteristic, not a sequential path. Segment overlap helps understand how different user segments intersect, which is not the primary goal when analyzing a user's journey through a defined set of steps.
