Analytics hub

Shopify analytics guides and benchmark pages

The operator playbook owns measurement workflow. The benchmark pages provide dated, directional context for conversion, abandonment, and speed; the tools help estimate support pressure and app-stack complexity.

What this hub covers

Start with the operator playbook to define the decision and source of truth, then use the relevant benchmark as context rather than a universal target. Developer app telemetry is a separate engineering intent, not part of this merchant analytics path.
