Understanding Your Agent Analytics

Analytics gives you a real-time view of how your agent is performing — including conversation volume, lead capture, and AI-powered insights about your visitors' intent and sentiment.

Overview

The Analytics page is available to all RightAsk accounts, including Free plans. It aggregates data from every conversation your selected agent has had and presents it as metrics, activity breakdowns, a lead funnel, AI insight distributions, and a knowledge base report. You do not need to configure anything to start seeing data — it populates automatically as visitors chat with your agent.

Opening Analytics

  1. Select Agents in the left sidebar.

  2. Select Analytics from the Agents section. The page title reads Analytics.

  3. If you have more than one agent, use the agent selector at the top of the page to switch between agents.

Choosing a time window

Use the time window selector next to the agent selector to change the period shown across all metrics. Three options are available:

  • Today — current calendar day, broken into hourly buckets in trend charts

  • Last 7 days — the past seven days (default)

  • Last 30 days — the past thirty days

Selecting a different window updates all metric cards and charts immediately.

Understanding the metrics

KPI cards

Four summary cards appear at the top of the Analytics page:

Card

What it shows

Total Conversations

Total number of conversations for the selected agent, with a sub-label showing conversations this week

Total Messages

Total message count across all conversations, with average messages per chat

Leads Captured

Conversations where the visitor shared their email address, shown with a capture rate percentage

Active Contacts

Contacts who have been active, with new contacts added this week

Activity periods

Below the KPI cards, a secondary strip shows conversation counts broken into three periods:

Label

Period

Today

Conversations started today

This Week

Conversations started this week

This Month

Conversations started this month

Trend chart

A line chart visualizes conversation volume over the selected time window. For the Today window, data is bucketed by hour. For Last 7 days and Last 30 days, data is bucketed by day.

Lead funnel

The lead funnel shows how visitors progress through your agent:

Stage

What it counts

Visitors

Unique visitors who opened the chat

Conversations

Visitors who started a conversation

Leads

Conversations where the visitor shared their email

Hot Leads

Leads scored "hot"

Understanding AI insights

RightAsk's AI analyzes every conversation and assigns values across four dimensions. The Analytics page shows how these values are distributed across all conversations for the selected agent and time window.

Field

Possible values

What it means

Sentiment

Positive, Neutral, Negative

The overall emotional tone of the visitor’s messages

Lead Score

Hot, Warm, Cold

How likely the visitor is to convert, based on their questions and engagement

Intent

Sales, Support, Information, Other

The primary reason the visitor started the chat

Buyer Stage

Awareness, Consideration, Decision

Where the visitor appears to be in their purchasing journey

These breakdowns help you identify patterns. For example, many visitors at the Decision stage with Cold lead scores may indicate your agent’s messaging needs adjustment.

Knowledge base section

The Knowledge Base section of Analytics shows stats about the documents your agent uses to answer questions:

Metric

What it shows

Documents

Total number of uploaded documents

Total Size

Combined size of all documents in MB

Avg Size

Average size per document in MB

Avg Score

Average AI intelligence score across analyzed documents

Analyzed Docs

Number of documents fully analyzed

Processing Docs

Documents currently being processed

Failed / Unsupported

Documents that could not be processed

A status donut chart shows the breakdown of document states: Ready, Processing, Error, and Pending.


Knowledge Base Intelligence

Below the knowledge base stats, the Knowledge Base Intelligence section uses AI to assess how well your documents actually answer your visitors' questions. It appears once your agent has had enough conversations to analyse.

Card

What it shows

Coverage Score

The share of visitor questions your knowledge base can answer, with a breakdown of covered, partial, and uncovered topics — plus examples of questions it could not answer

Content Gap Analysis

Topics where visitors asked questions your documents do not cover, so you know what content to add next

Document Effectiveness

Which documents are actually being used to answer questions, and which are going unused

Exporting analytics

Select the download icon in the top-right header to export the current analytics view as a PDF. The export includes the KPI cards, lead funnel, and trend data for the selected agent.

What happens next

Data shown in Analytics reflects conversations as they happen. There is no need to refresh manually — select the refresh button in the page header if you want to force an immediate update. Lead and contact data from your conversations flows into the Contacts hub automatically.

Troubleshooting

No data is showing on the Analytics page. Confirm that you have selected an agent from the agent selector. Data only appears after the agent has had at least one conversation. If the agent is new, send a test message through your chat widget to generate the first data point.

Charts are empty or show zeros. Check that the selected time window covers the period when conversations occurred. Switch to Last 30 days to see if older data is present. Select the refresh button to reload.

The AI insights section is empty. AI insights are generated asynchronously after a conversation ends. Allow a few minutes after a conversation completes for insights to appear. Insights are not generated for very short conversations.

The export button is disabled. Make sure an agent is selected. The export button becomes active only when an agent is selected and analytics data has loaded.
