Cohort Analysis Shopify Apps – Analytics & Insights

MIDA Replay, Heatmap & Insight holds the top spot for cohort analysis with 25.2% market share, but the gap to challengers is closing, 10.5pp ahead of Propel Replay, Survey, Heatmap (14.7%). Microsoft Clarity: AI Insights sits at #3 with 55.9% share, rounding out the top tier. Together, the top 3 apps absorb 95.7% of all cohort analysis installs — a highly concentrated landscape with limited room for new entrants. TiXel: Meta Pixel TikTok Pixel is the standout mover this month, climbing 2 positions — a momentum signal worth tracking. Worth noting: the top-ranked app and the highest-share app aren't the same here — App Store rank and our market share metric (computed from review counts and other factors) move on independent dynamics, so cross-checking both views matters in this category.

MIDA Replay, Heatmap & Insight leads at 25.2%, only 10.5pp ahead of Propel Replay, Survey, Heatmap (14.7%), with rankings stable this month. When the top two cohort analysis apps demonstrate similar real-world adoption, fit-for-store usually matters more than rank — comparing pricing model, integration depth, and support hours separates them better than the share gap does.
