introduser

Introduser is a neologism used in some niche contexts to describe an actor who makes introductions. The term is not widely attested in standard dictionaries and has no formal definition in major reference works. In practice, introduser tends to refer to roles or tools centered on facilitating introductions between people or between users and a system.

In social and event settings, an introduser is similar to a host or emcee, with a primary function of introducing guests, speakers, or participants to one another, as well as guiding the flow of the program and easing transitions between segments. In this sense, the term emphasizes the introductory moment rather than broader entertainment duties.

In organizational or digital contexts, introduser can describe a role or feature that helps newcomers become acquainted with a group, product, or service. Examples might include an onboarding module labeled as an introduser that delivers guided introductions to features, teams, or workflows, or a human facilitator who arranges initial introductions among new hires.

Because introduser is not standardized, usage varies and may overlap with more established terms such as introducer, host, emcee, greeter, onboarding specialist, or product tour. When encountered, the term is typically clarified by context to avoid ambiguity.
