What it does
The default Shopify dashboard mixes useful numbers with misleading ones. Total sales includes tax, which you pass on to the government. Gross sales ignores discounts and returns. Returning customer rate rises when you stop buying ads and falls when you scale, so it says little about loyalty. The attribution tiles, such as sales by social referral, point your spending the wrong way. This skill goes through the tiles one by one and gives each a verdict: use, use with care, or ignore. It works out cash collected (net sales plus shipping charges), adds shipping back into average order value, and flags returns that distort a month. It compares Shopify sessions with GA4 sessions to catch bot traffic, and reads your funnel against a common ratio. The score shows how safely your current reading of the dashboard holds up.
You give it
- Gross sales, discounts, returns, net sales, shipping charges and taxes for one period
- Orders, AOV, sessions and conversion rate from Shopify
- Add to cart, reached checkout and purchase counts
- GA4 sessions for the same dates (optional)
- Your sales channel split, and which tiles you use today (optional)
You get
- Cash collected, with the sum shown
- A verdict per tile: use, use with care, or ignore
- Returns shown apart from the period they distort
- A bot-traffic check and a funnel ratio, with a score out of 100 and how it was worked out
Use it when
- You make decisions from the Shopify dashboard and want to know which numbers are safe to use.
- Your conversion rate or sessions jumped and you suspect bot traffic.
- You need one revenue figure to put into a profit sheet or to share with an ad partner.
How to use it
- Start a chat with the skill. Open it if you added it to your AI, or copy it and paste it in.

- Tell it which tiles you look at when you make decisions.
- Read the verdicts and use the cash collected figure as your revenue line.
- If sessions differ a lot from GA4, follow its steps to check sessions by city.
