Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureMost store owners open their analytics dashboard and have no idea what they're looking at. Companion fixes that. Every Sunday night, our AI reads your store's data - revenue, orders, average order value, top products, abandoned carts - and turns it into a plain-English weekly sales report, delivered by email every Monday morning.
Most analytics apps give you another dashboard to check. Seam goes the other way. Every day, it analyzes your last 24 hours of orders, customers, products, and traffic, finds the one change worth knowing about, and emails it to you in plain language at the time you choose. There is no setup, no configuration, and no reports to build.
- Sends a plain-English digest to your inbox every Monday at 07:00.
- Compares this week’s metrics against last week so you can see the changes.
- Ends every digest with one specific action based on your store’s actual data.
- Analyzes orders, customers, products, and traffic to find patterns you might mis
- Delivers a concise, actionable summary to your inbox daily
- No setup or configuration required
