Description
QA Assistants goes beyond analytics — it’s a companion that helps your data speak, with Assistants that reveal insights you can act on.
Each Assistant offers a unique way to look at your site — from quick overviews to social trends and growth insights.
You can still explore familiar tools like heatmaps, session replays, and reports — and Assistants will gradually bring more context to them.
No complex setup or technical skills needed.
QA Assistants makes discovering your site’s stories simple, visual, and a little fun too.
Features
Assistants — your data-driven companions to explore your site
Each Assistant offers a unique way to understand your site.
From traffic overviews to social engagement or content insights, they highlight what truly matters — in plain words you can grasp.
More Assistants will keep joining, each bringing a new perspective to your data.
New: The built-in Page Analysis Assistant lets you view pageviews, key metrics, and device-specific heatmaps directly from the page you’re browsing — a lightweight, chatbot-style helper for logged-in admins.
Heatmaps & Session Replays — see how visitors behave
Visualize how people interact with your site: where they click, scroll, and pause.
Session Replays let you follow their real journeys, helping you discover friction points and hidden opportunities.

Built for WordPress — light, secure, and extendable
Designed to blend seamlessly with your dashboard.
QA Assistants follows WordPress coding standards, loads only what’s needed, and supports modular extensions for future Assistants.
All of these features are completely free — just install and start exploring.
Important Notes
-
QA Assistants collects data in real time, but analytical reports are processed overnight.
You can see live visit counts immediately, while detailed insights (used by Assistants) become available the following day. -
Please do not compress or minify JavaScript used by QA Assistants or WordPress.
Some optimization plugins may interfere with tracking; exclude QA Assistants–related scripts if needed. -
Make sure your PHP memory limit is sufficient for data processing.
If your server uses a very low limit (for example, 256 MB or less), some processes may fail. -
For detailed technical guidance or troubleshooting steps,
please see the Documentation.

Easy to Setup
