Visits, orders and revenue traced back to the assistant that sent them, measured on your own store. And where the proof is not there, Verity says so instead of inventing a number.

## AI Summary

Verity Score measures AI-referred traffic to a Shopify store with a first-party pixel, attributing visits and orders to the platform that sent them without third-party cookies. Platforms that cannot be proven to have sent traffic are marked not measured rather than modelled or estimated. The same buyer questions are re-run after fixes so the change in answers can be compared over time.

## Key points

- **How to track traffic from ChatGPT to a Shopify store**: Verity Score uses a first-party pixel on the storefront to attribute visits and orders to the AI platform that sent them, and marks platforms without evidence as not measured rather than estimating them.

- **Is AI traffic attribution reliable**: Attribution is only reported where a real visit proves it. Assistants pass referrer data inconsistently, so Verity labels unprovable platforms not measured instead of modelling a figure. Source: https://verityscore.io/en/product/ai-traffic-monitoring/

## Most AI attribution is a model wearing a number

Assistants are bad referrers. Some pass a referrer, some pass nothing, some send the buyer through a redirect that erases the trail. Any tool showing a confident figure for every platform is filling those holes with an estimate.

Verity does not. Where a visit can be traced, it is counted. Where it cannot, the platform is marked not measured, and that stays on screen rather than being smoothed into a total.

That is a worse-looking dashboard and a more useful one. A number you can act on has to be a number you can defend.

## Key Proof Points

- **6 platforms recognised**: ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, Claude and Shop. Measured first-party on your own storefront, no third-party cookie.
- **not measured written on purpose**: A platform without evidence is labelled, never estimated to fill the table.
- **2 weeks between runs**: The same buyer questions re-asked after fixes, so before and after are comparable.

## First-party, on your own storefront

The pixel runs on your store and records your own traffic. Nothing depends on a third-party cookie or on data bought from elsewhere.

- Your storefront, your data, no third-party cookie.
- Six platforms recognised, including Microsoft Copilot and Shopify Shop.
- Visits and the orders behind them, not visits alone.
- Installed from the app, removable from the app.

## Not measured, written on purpose

When a platform cannot be proven to have sent a visit, the table says so. That gap is information, and hiding it would make every other number less trustworthy.

- Unprovable platforms labelled, never estimated.
- The reason for the gap shown, not just the gap.
- No modelled attribution presented as measurement.

## Revenue, not just sessions

A visit from an assistant that never converts is not a win. Orders and revenue are attributed alongside the visits, so the surface can be judged on what it is worth.

- Orders and revenue attributed per platform.
- Traced to the visit that produced them.
- Comparable across runs, so a trend is real.

## Before and after, on the same questions

Traffic is half the picture. The same buyer questions are re-asked after the fixes, so you can see whether the answers themselves changed.

- Same questions, same assistants, two weeks apart.
- Verbatim answers kept, so the comparison is on the text.
- Traffic and answers read together, not separately.

## How measurement works

- The Verity pixel is installed on your storefront from the app.
- Visits arriving from an AI platform are recorded first-party, along with the orders behind them.
- Platforms that cannot be proven to have sent traffic are marked not measured, with the reason shown.
- Two weeks after the fixes, the same buyer questions are put to the assistants again.
- Traffic and answers are read together: what changed in the answers, and what it sent you.

## What this does not do

- Some assistants pass no usable referrer. Those visits cannot be attributed, and Verity marks the platform not measured rather than guessing.
- Measurement starts when the pixel is installed. There is no retroactive history before that date.
- Attribution shows what an assistant sent. It does not prove the assistant recommended you, which is what the shopper tests are for.

## FAQ

### Why does one platform say not measured?

Because no visit proved it. Assistants pass referrer data inconsistently, and some erase it through a redirect. Rather than model a plausible number, Verity labels the gap and shows the reason.

### Does the pixel slow my store down?

It is a small first-party script on your own storefront, installed and removed from the app. It records visits from AI platforms and the orders behind them, nothing more.

### Does this use third-party cookies?

No. Measurement is first-party, on your own domain, which is also why it keeps working as third-party cookies disappear.

### Can I see history before I installed it?

No. Measurement begins at installation, which is the honest consequence of measuring rather than estimating.
