A heart-rate monitor for ecommerce conversion rate.

Most small-to-mid size ecommerce companies throw up their hands in frustration trying to use Google Analytics.

Bassoon rescues them by slicing off their most important metric (conversion rate) and emailing it to them every day, or alerting them when conversion rate drops suddenly for any reason.

We integrate with Shopify and Magento, making it one-click easy for merchants to get started.

Not to derail, but as a bassoon player, I'm curious how you landed on the name.

Domain name was available. I wanted Bugle though.

No worries, the bassoon is never anyone's first choice ;)
