PathGuide: the data layer on top of ShopGuide

ShopGuide is the agent on the storefront. PathGuide sits on top of it and turns what happened on your store into journeys, segments, and merchandising insight. Path Explorer lives inside PathGuide, and only there.

👁️

Merchants are flying blind

You have Google Analytics. You have order data. But you don't know WHY customers abandon cart, which product pages lose visitors, or if bots are inflating your numbers.

💰

Guessing costs money

Every wrong optimization takes time and budget. Wrong CRO test. Wrong product placement. Wrong homepage redesign. The cost of not knowing adds up fast.

🎯

Your competitors see it

Smart merchants already know: journey data is competitive advantage. They're optimizing what you can't see.

Meet PathGuide

PathGuide reads what happened on your store and turns it into journeys, segments, and merchandising insight. Path Explorer is where you see it.

🛤️

The Journey

See the exact path every customer takes, from first click to checkout or bounce. Which pages keep them, which lose them.

🔍

The Intelligence

PathGuide reads the patterns across your store and tells you what matters, in your shoppers' own words.

🤖

The Reality Check

Real traffic vs. bots. Know if your analytics are noise. Bot traffic doesn't affect your metrics.

92-second overview

See every path to purchase

Real journeys from real customers

Path Explorer maps every pageview, every decision point. You see:

  • Which products get clicks vs. which get ignored
  • Where customers pause (and consider leaving)
  • How they navigate between categories
  • When they add to cart vs. when they bounce

Segmented by device, referrer, customer type, even traffic source, so you see the journeys that matter most.

Stop debating. See what shoppers actually asked.

Instead of guessing what to fix, PathGuide shows you what shoppers told you, in their own words:

  • '156 shoppers asked for the ingredient list'
  • 'About 1 in 4 conversations surfaces a question the store could not answer'
  • 'Shoppers who chat buy more often than shoppers who do not'

Questions your assistant could not answer are stacked into a ranked list, so you get a test to run on Monday, not a number to interpret.

Real traffic. Real metrics. No bot noise.

Bot traffic inflates your session counts and ruins your conversion rates. Path Explorer knows the difference.

  • Real humans ✓
  • Crawlers & scrapers ✗
  • Privacy relay (real users
  • private IPs) ✓
  • Automation tools ✗

Powered by IP reputation, browser fingerprinting, and behavioral signals. No false positives on iOS visitors.

Here's what happens when you use it

It's Monday morning. You open PathGuide.

Path Explorer shows you the journeys from the weekend: which product pages kept shoppers, and which ones lost them.

The heatmap shows every click on your real store pages, ranked, desktop and phone separately. You open Customer Segments, pick the cart abandoners, and sync them to your Klaviyo list. You start the win-back email in Klaviyo.

That is the loop: see the journey, find the segment, reach the shoppers.

ShopGuide is the agent. PathGuide is the data.
Path Explorer segments syncing to Shopify customer tags and Klaviyo lists
Built into ShopGuide: tag the shoppers who left and reach them in Klaviyo.

Questions? We've got answers.

Does this work for small stores?
Yes. PathGuide works on small stores and large ones. The insights get better with more traffic, but even small stores see clear patterns.
Is this just heatmaps?
No. Heatmaps show clicks. Path Explorer shows journeys, how customers move between pages, where they stop, what they do next. Plus the ranked list of questions your assistant could not answer.
Can I use PathGuide without the ShopGuide chat?
PathGuide is a separate app. It reads what happened on your store, and it works with or without the ShopGuide chat. ShopGuide does not depend on PathGuide to run the chat.
What if I already have Google Analytics?
GA shows aggregate traffic. Path Explorer shows individual journeys. GA says '40% checkout abandonment.' Path Explorer shows you which product page, which decision, and which shoppers.
