Analytics & Reporting Overview
Analytics and reporting provide merchant and executive-friendly insights into search performance, conversion funnels, revenue attribution, merchandising impact, and content analytics to help you understand and optimize your product discovery experience. The Marqo pixel automatically collects user interaction data (searches, clicks, purchases, browsing behavior) from your site, so all analytics are available automatically without requiring any manual data submission.
