The blind spot

Your analytics tells you where shoppers drop off.
It never tells you why.

Cart abandonment runs ~70% across ecommerce (Baymard). That's a number. It's not a reason. FrictionScope gives you the reason, in your shoppers' own words.

Your funnel shows a big drop at checkout, but not a single reason why.
What FrictionScope shows

The reasons, in their words

“50% off”? Pretty sure this was never that price.

shopper #214

What even is “Nuvora”? Is the jacket waterproof?

shopper #88

Two popups before I saw a product. Bye.

shopper #41

Each one tied to a page, a screenshot, and a fix.

How it works

CRITICALverified/products/atlas-jacket· Product pageTrust + pricing-law risk

It says 50% off, but I'm pretty sure it was never this 'original' price. That feels like a trick, and now I don't trust the rest.

shopper #214 · price-checking

Recommended fix: The struck-through 'was' price is higher than the genuine recent low. Show the real prior price. Inflated reference prices erode trust and risk pricing-law penalties in the EU/UK.

HIGHverified/products/atlas-jacket· Product pageHurts conversion

What does “Nuvora” even mean? Is it waterproof or not? I shouldn't have to guess.

shopper #88 · first-time visitor

Recommended fix: Swap the branded fabric jargon above the fold for plain benefits: water-resistant, 12-hr warmth.

MEDIUMverified/· HomepageEarly drop-off

Two popups before I'd seen a single product. I almost left right there.

shopper #41 · browsing on mobile

Recommended fix: Delay the newsletter modal until 40% scroll depth or the 2nd pageview; suppress on exit-intent.

Every finding is flagged verified (we confirmed it) or worth a check (run it by your team). No guesswork dressed up as certainty.
Why it is different

Not a heatmap. Not a hunch. Proof.

Every single finding comes with the same four things, so there is nothing to argue about, only things to fix.
