Ask Loamly

Get instant answers about your analytics

Overview

Ask Loamly is a natural language interface to your analytics data. Instead of clicking through dashboards and building filters, just ask questions in plain English.

Ask questions like:

  • "Which traffic source has the highest conversion rate?"
  • "Show me high-intent visitors from ChatGPT this week"
  • "What's my AI Positioning Score trend?"
  • "Compare visitors from Perplexity vs Claude"
  • "Which pages do solution-comparison visitors view most?"

How it works

  1. You ask a question in natural language
  2. Ask Loamly interprets your question and determines what data is needed
  3. It queries your data using the appropriate tools and filters
  4. You get an answer with relevant data, tables, or explanations

Powered by Claude

Ask Loamly uses Anthropic's Claude to understand your questions and formulate responses. Your data never leaves Loamly's infrastructure for storage.

Tips for better results

Be specific

  • Good: "Show me ChatGPT visitors from the US who viewed the pricing page"
  • Vague: "Show me some visitors"

Include time frames

  • Good: "What was my conversion rate last week?"
  • Ambiguous: "What's my conversion rate?" (defaults to 30 days)

Ask follow-up questions

Ask Loamly remembers context within a conversation. After getting results, you can ask follow-up questions:

  • "Which of those converted?"
  • "Break that down by device type"
  • "Compare to last month"

Experiment freely

There's no penalty for asking questions. Experiment with different phrasing to find what works best for your needs.
