How does synthux help reduce e-commerce cart abandonment?

synthux's ecommerce.json rule pack inspects the top drivers of cart abandonment: forced account creation, late shipping/tax disclosure, intrusive coupon code fields, ambiguous variant selection, and missing return policy reassurance.

Can synthux visualize friction density on a live product or checkout page?

Yes. After running an audit, toggle the Issue Heatmap overlay to visualize critical, moderate, and minor conversion blockers directly on the live page.
