The problem

Conversions dropped 23%. Everyone has a theory. Was it the ad creative? The landing page? A pricing change? Without cross-platform data, you're just guessing.

Shopify tracks orders and revenue, product performance, customer profiles and segments. TikTok Ads tracks campaign and ad group performance, creative and video metrics, audience targeting. Neither sees the other. That blind spot costs you money every day.

How askotter fixes this

askotter pulls Shopify and TikTok Ads into one data lake. With both data sets unified, it can test hypotheses against data from every tool and isolate the real cause. Self-healing agents adapt as your data shifts, so the analysis stays accurate without manual tuning.
