Where native reporting hands off to a teammate who can ask questions
Shopify Analytics explains what happened. Business teams still need answers to why it happened and what actions to take next.
What native reporting leaves open
Built-in reports, fixed shapes
Custom questions involve creating a new report or coding ShopifyQL.
No plain-English narration
The chart represents what happened, and the explanation of why is up to you.
Scoped to Shopify's own data
CRM systems, marketing platforms, payment providers, and other business applications remain outside Shopify's native reporting.
No forward-looking forecast
Native reports focus on historical performance and do not provide predictive forecasting capabilities.
Query skills help
The more comfortable you are with the technical aspects, the more you get out of ShopifyQL.
What ProactiveAI adds on top
Open-ended questions, no report to build
Answer it directly and receive an answer that addresses the question.
Plain-language narration on every chart
The number is the "why" that accompanies the "how"
Data beyond Shopify, in the same answer
Your store data is blended with CRM, marketing, and payment data.
Forecasting built in
Predictions of sales, demand, and churn, along with historical reporting.
No query language to learn
For most questions, plain English will do the job for which ShopifyQL was designed.

Try a question your Shopify dashboard won't answer on its own
If you really want a metric, then native reports are great. Have ProactiveAI tell you the "why," and see the answer unfold real-time. Choose one of the prompts below.

>_ UNDER THE HOOD
Every question is run against your connected Shopify data and any other data sources you have connected, then, if applicable, it goes through a forecasting model or an attribution model where it gets its answer, giving you the 'why' as well as the 'what'.
ProactiveAI cross-referenced session data with average order value and traffic source over the past 7 days to separate the two trends:
