Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureBots from China, Singapore, and data centers inflate your sessions, drag down your conversion rate, and burn ad spend on visitors who never buy. They skew GA4, Meta, and Klaviyo too. ClearSignal shows your true human conversion rate, puts a dollar figure on the bot tax, keeps your Klaviyo lists clean, and exports a paid-traffic bot report.
AI assistants now shop Shopify stores. Shopify's Agentic home reports sales and orders for its own AI channels. Tactical shows what happens on your storefront: agent browsers that shop like a person, scored on behaviour even when they never name themselves; AI crawlers (with Cloudflare in front of your store); and people who arrive from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Copilot, with the products they looked at.
