# Cross-category ecommerce benchmark evidence

Captured 2026-09-12. This is an evidence inventory, not a creative ranking. “Vendor-reported” means a Shopify or brand case study; it is not an independently controlled experiment. A migration, checkout, Shop-app, or inventory result must not be read as an isolated PDP-conversion result.

## Research-priority set (eight entries with primary documentation)

|Brand / sector|Flagship official product URL|Primary documented evidence|Scope, time, and limit|Source|
|---|---|---|---|---|
|BODi / wellness|https://www.bodi.com/products|Checkout migration|Vendor-reported: checkout conversion **+10 percentage points at launch**; migration involved 1m payment methods and 800k subscriptions.

## Requested capture targets: evidence-selection rationale

|Target|Why it is in the capture set|Evidence strength and scope|
|---|---|---|
|Jones Road Miracle Balm|Beauty candidate with a documented educational advertorial → shade-quiz funnel.|Octane AI (vendor) reports, Dec 2021–Feb 2022, 82% quiz completion; 15% of quiz takers purchased; AOV $60→$90. It also describes 16% quiz conversion. These are quiz/funnel figures, **not overall PDP conversion**. [Source](https://www.octaneai.com/case-studies/jones-road-beauty)|
|Dr. Squatch Pine Tar|Beauty/grooming candidate with a named Shopify checkout case study.|Shopify reports mobile conversion and Shop Pay Installments AOV increases, but no percentage was available in the result capture. **Weak for quantified comparison; checkout-only context.** [Source](https://www.shopify.com/nz/case-studies/dr-squatch)|
|Graza starter|Food candidate with a current flagship product path.|**Selection-only:** no primary conversion/business metric captured in this sweep.|
|Huel Black Edition|Food/wellness candidate with brand-published FY24 commercial reporting.|£214m FY24 revenue and 25,000+ retail stores. Strong business-scale documentation; **not ecommerce/PDP conversion.** [Source](https://discuss.huel.com/t/the-fy24-huel-annual-report/26321)|
|Ridge Wallet|Accessories candidate; product collection currently calls aluminum its flagship material and shows a high visible review count.|**Selection-only:** product-page social-proof display is not independently verified conversion evidence; no primary performance metric captured. [Source](https://ridge.com/collections/aluminum)|
|HexClad set|Home candidate with distinct post-purchase and lifecycle cases.|Aftersell (vendor) reports $2.4m incremental **post-purchase** revenue over 365 days, $4.91 added revenue/transaction, and says PDP/cart/checkout were untouched. Alia (vendor) reports 14-day post-signup conversion 7%→12%; its scope is opt-in/lifecycle. **Neither is overall/PDP conversion.** [Aftersell](https://www.aftersell.com/case-study/hexclad), [Alia](https://www.aliapopups.com/success-stories/hexclad)|
|Gymshark leggings|Apparel candidate with Shopify-documented scale and platform context.|£41m 2017 sales and 5.1m social followers after replatforming. **Business scale, not conversion evidence.** [Source](https://www.shopify.com/sg/case-studies/gymshark)|
|Oura Ring 4|Consumer-tech/wellness candidate with a company SEC filing.|FY2025 $908m revenue; 4.6m paid members (Q2 FY26); 80% 12-month retention. Strong reporting source; **retention/revenue, not purchase conversion.** [Source](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/2133022/000119312526381855/d119865ds1.htm)|

## Citation and interpretation notes

1. Shopify case studies are vendor-published and frequently combine platform, checkout, merchandising, marketing, and operations changes. Use their figures as reported outcomes, not causal PDP design proof.
2. Huel’s FY24 post is brand-published; Oura’s filing is a company SEC disclosure. Both establish commercial scale rather than page-level performance.
3. Recognition-only entries remain useful for current-site capture and interface study, but this document makes no claim that their pages are “highest converting.”
