How it sells itself

Akta Live Insights shows what shoppers are doing on your store right now: which products they view, what they add to cart, and what they buy. Follow live viewers, top products, trends over equal periods, and inventory-aware insights. Every metric shows its time window, cart additions are never labelled as orders, and the storefront counter shows real counts or hides.

You know your online store is getting traffic and shoppers are adding products to their shopping carts. But which products? Knowing which products have been added to the cart – as it happens real-time – gives you intelligence on the most popular products or brands which allows you to make better decisions to optimize conversions.

Key points
  • Live viewer counts per product, built from real heartbeats
  • Most viewed, most carted, and most purchased products
  • Trending and declining products, compared over equal periods
  • Insights feed flags high interest, low stock, restock timing
  • Tells you what items are being added, removed – as it happens
  • Notifies you by email on each activity
  • Install and start seeing activities come in – fuss free!
