How it sells itself

Bots 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.

Bot traffic quietly corrupts your conversion rate, ad attribution, and email flows. TrueMetrics scores every storefront session using an explainable rule engine, with every verdict backed by clear reasons. When a bot starts a checkout, we suppress that profile in Klaviyo so abandoned cart emails reach only real customers. Export bot-flagged checkouts as a Meta exclusion audience.

Key points
  • Detect bot sessions with fingerprinting, behavior, and IP reputation
  • See your true conversion rate with bot traffic filtered out
  • Trace bots to their traffic source with UTM and click ID breakdown
  • Audit Klaviyo profiles for bot contacts and tag them for exclusion
  • See exactly why every visitor was flagged as a bot.
  • Only real shoppers receive abandoned cart emails.
  • Export a Meta Ads exclusion audience in one click.
  • Track bots, saved emails, and true conversions weekly.
