Find what shoppers ask and where Convi struggles

Use the Activity and Quality tabs to see when and where shoppers chat, what they ask, and what to fix first.

Written by Dela

The Activity and Quality tabs show when shoppers chat, what they ask about, and where Convi needs your help. This article explains how to read them and how to reach the conversations behind each number. It is for store owners and team members who want to improve Convi's answers.

When do shoppers chat?

When shoppers chat on the Activity tab shows the conversations in your date range by day and hour, in your store's time zone. Darker cells are busier, from Quiet to Peak. The line above the chart names your busiest hour and your time zone. In the By day view, it names your busiest day.

When shoppers chat, a grid of hours by days with darker cells at busy times, and the Hour × day, By hour and By day buttons
​The grid shows your busy times. The buttons at the top right change the view.

Use it to plan who covers handovers. To see the busiest hours or days alone, select By hour or By day.

Where do conversations come from?

The table below the grid breaks your conversations down the way you choose. To change it, select a button at the top of the card: Channel, Widget, Topic, Skill, Page type, Hour of day, Language or Started on.

Each row shows these columns:

Column

What it means

Conversations

How many conversations this row has

Share

The row's share of all conversations. A conversation can have several topics, so topic shares can add up to more than 100%

AI-resolved

The share Convi resolved. It shows once a row has 20 or more conversations

Handed over

The share Convi passed to your team, or your team took over. It shows once a row has 20 or more conversations

Orders and Revenue

Online orders credited to these conversations, and their value

Change in chats

The change against the same number of days just before your range. It shows when Compare to previous period is on and the earlier period had 30 or more

Two views show more than conversations:

  • Channel also lists channels you haven't connected, with a button to connect them.

  • Widget also lists widgets that are off, with a Turn on button. The You might also like row also shows its impressions, clicks and adds, because that section doesn't open a conversation.

The breakdown by widget with its columns, a widget that is off, and the You might also like row
​The Widget view. Widgets that are off are listed, so you can turn them on.

How do I open the conversations behind a number?

You can open the conversations behind most numbers on these tabs. To open them:

  1. In a breakdown row, select the row's name or one of its rates. Conversations opens with those conversations, for the same dates.

  2. To widen the list, remove the filter from the row of filters above it.

Rows in the Hour of day view can't be opened as a list yet.

What did Convi fail to answer?

Questions Convi couldn't answer on the Quality tab groups the conversations that ended without an answer by what shoppers asked. Use this card first: each question you answer helps from the next conversation.

Each row shows the question, its topic, and how many conversations asked it. Your content says No answer when nothing Convi knows covers the question, or Partly answered when Convi found related content, not the answer.

Questions Convi couldn't answer, with questions grouped by what shoppers asked, and Add an answer on each row
​Questions are grouped, and their wording is masked. Open the conversations to read them in full.

To act on the list:

  • Add an answer adds what Convi should say. It works as described in Answer the questions Convi couldn't answer.

  • Select the number of conversations to read the chats.

  • Export questions downloads the list as a CSV file.

Questions are grouped once 10 or more conversations in your range end without an answer. If your range has fewer, select a longer one. One-off questions aren't grouped, so the card tells you how many conversations it lists out of the total.

What else does the Quality tab show?

The Quality tab has five more cards, listed below in the order you see them.

Card

What it shows

What to look for

What Convi did for shoppers

Each action Convi took, such as tracking an order, how often it completed, and why it couldn't

A low Completed rate. Most failures come from what the shopper entered, such as an email that doesn't match an order

Message feedback

Thumbs up and thumbs down that shoppers gave Convi's replies

A rise in thumbs down

Handovers to your team

Median time to first reply, and the share Replied within 1 hour

A slow reply time. Chats you took over yourself aren't counted here

Why Convi handed over

Handovers by reason, such as Customer asked for a human

One reason that stands out

Handovers by topic

Handovers by the conversation's topic

A topic that needs better content

Message feedback with the counts of thumbs up and thumbs down, and how many messages shoppers rated
​Message feedback covers only the replies shoppers rated. The line under the bar says how many that is.

Three of these cards open their conversations: select a count in What Convi did for shoppers, See these conversations in Message feedback, or a slice in Handovers by topic.

What don't these tabs show?

These tabs have a few limits:

  • They count shoppers' conversations only. Staff questions on Shopify POS are the one exception: they appear in Questions Convi couldn't answer.

  • Activity counts conversations. The AI Search Bar isn't counted, because its searches don't open a conversation.

  • On Quality, Compare to previous period is greyed out. What Convi did for shoppers, Message feedback and Handovers to your team still compare with the same number of days before your range.
