Revenue Per Visitor (RPV)
Revenue per visitor (RPV) is total revenue divided by total visitors — a composite metric that combines conversion rate and average order value into a single number that measures the overall revenue efficiency of a session.

Why it matters
RPV is the most useful single metric for evaluating an AI shopping tool because it combines both dimensions of commercial impact (how many shoppers buy, and how much they spend when they do). A tool that converts more shoppers at lower AOV may show the same RPV as one that converts fewer shoppers at higher AOV.
