Klevu in Polar: the lift, measured in margin.
Klevu decides what each visitor sees. What it cannot tell you is whether that changed the business, because its own reporting measures the widget and your margin lives elsewhere. Bring recommendations, searches and experiences into Polar and the lift is read on orders and contribution margin.

How to Connect Klevu to Polar.
A Polar account with Shopify connected, access to your Klevu account, and Polar's AI Data Engineer, which builds the connector from a plain-language request.

Ask for the connector ~ minutes
Plain language, no code.
Tell Polar's AI Data Engineer what you want from Klevu in plain language. It reads the source documentation, lays out everything the API offers by category, then writes the connector and pipes the data into your warehouse as governed data. No code, and it ships in minutes.
Worth knowing: this also works on connectors you already have. If the Klevu API exposes a field, you can have it, down to a single hidden one the standard connector never pulled.

Experiences joined to orders automatic
Widget, meet revenue.
Polar joins Klevu experiences, recommendations and searches to the orders that followed, so a lift is measured in revenue and contribution margin rather than in widget clicks.

Lift on margin the payoff
Not just on AOV.
An upsell that raises the basket with your cheapest range is visible as what it is, because every lift is read against the margin of what it added.
Side by side
Klevu reports the lift. Polar tells you if it paid.
On-site tools measure themselves: impressions, clicks, engagement with the widget. None of that says whether the business is better off, because the margin of what was added lives in your store. Polar joins the experience to the order.

A bigger basket is assumed to be a better one.

Zero-result searches are a curiosity, not a number.

The Gap
The connector is only half of it.
Once Klevu is modelled against your real orders inside Polar, you can use the result wherever you already work. Ask Polar in plain language, pull it live through the Polar MCP, or schedule it into the report your team reads every morning.
