The app has great potential, but without being able to customise Customer Persona's there is only a small benefit to its analysis. Our example is that our market is 95% University students who utilise this site for university merchandise, sport programs, club memberships and events and course equipment. Adding data to help fine tune the bots personas would significantly increase the effectiveness of the app to be tailored to the customer base that we have.

Great idea but currently immature - I have run a sim on my live theme. Ai shoppers are not using my site's mega menu so many comments regarding discoverability are just plain wrong - it's even suggesting adding a mega menu lol. In other areas, it's misinterpreting a sign-up pop-up for cookie consent, not viewing my drawer style cart properly etc. It also uses daft language like pills and chips - just use plain English (preferably UK!). I use the Impulse theme so it's not as if I'm using a cheap and nasty baseline. I will continue to review the detailed analysis because I can already see one or two valid and actionable things, but because it cant be wholly trusted, I certainly wouldn't want to pay for these outputs. I'll pop back for another go in 6 to 12 months perhaps.

cool concept for the beta. it needs an export function as I'd love to take all the individual agent experiences and compress in LLMs and actually turn it into something useful

Creates an anomaly in your traffic in google analytics, including conversion tracking like add to carts and beginning checkout. Very frustrating that this distorts the analytics, this should be made clear. Also, I think this is only useful if you're making massive theme changes and comparing two very different user experiences.

Review submitted during Preview / Research period Pretty cool, gave some amazing insights, the different personas are useful, so you can tailor you UI and experience to different customers It's frustrating that you can only go ahead with a simulation when two themes are set, sometimes I just want to check my current theme, instead of A/B testing
