summary: >-
  Emotive's client-side surface is larger than its server-side one and is where most
  merchants actually integrate. Four families: the CartAI tracking pixel (EdgeTag), the
  popup, the embedded signup form (iframe), and checkout opt-in components on the major
  commerce platforms.
families:
- family: CartAI Pixel (EdgeTag)
  type: javascript-tag
  description: >-
    Asynchronous first-party tracking tag that captures browsing and purchase behavior for
    cart recovery and multi-touch attribution. Documented as ~4KB and non-render-blocking.
  loader:
    global: edgetag
    stub: 'window.edgetag=window.edgetag||function(){(edgetag.stubs=edgetag.stubs||[]).push(arguments)}'
    script_src: 'https://d.<merchant-domain>/load'
    init: "edgetag('init', { edgeURL: 'https://d.<merchant-domain>', disableConsentCheck: true })"
    note: >-
      Served from a per-merchant first-party edge subdomain that Emotive provisions, not
      from a shared CDN. The src is unpinned — there is no version in the URL and no
      integrity attribute — so a merchant cannot tell which build they are loading.
  api:
    methods: [init, tag, data, user]
    events: [PageView, Subscribe, Signup, ViewContent, AddToCart, Purchase]
    user_keys: [email, phone, firstName, lastName, gender, dateOfBirth, city, state, zip, country, ip]
  guidance: Emotive recommends inserting the snippet directly into the site rather than via a tag manager, to avoid data loss and discrepancies.
  platform_variants:
  - Shopify (CartAI theme snippet, toggled on in Theme Builder)
  - Shopify Headless
  - BigCommerce
  - WooCommerce (plugin)
  - Custom site
- family: Emotive Popup
  type: hosted-overlay
  description: >-
    Dual-capture popup collecting both email and SMS subscribers. Delivered as a copyable
    code snippet installed in the site header/footer, or automatically via the Shopify and
    WooCommerce apps.
  install: Copy the Emotive Popup code snippet from the app and paste it into the site header.

- family: Embedded Signup Form
  type: iframe
  description: >-
    Inline signup form built in the Emotive form editor and embedded in the merchant's page
    as an iframe. Used for footers, homepages and dedicated signup landing pages.
  install: Activate the form, then "Copy code to clipboard" to obtain the iframe embed code.

- family: Checkout Opt-In
  type: platform-native
  description: >-
    SMS consent checkbox injected into the platform's native checkout, plus an optional
    discount offer at opt-in.
  platforms: [Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce]
  source: https://help.emotive.io/docs/integrations/collect-sms-during-shopify-checkout
- family: RealLink
  type: branded-link
  description: >-
    Branded short-link domain — the merchant's own domain rather than a shared shortener —
    marketed as a click-through-rate improvement. Configured, not embedded.

distribution:
  npm: false
  cdn_versioned: false
  note: >-
    None of these components is distributed through a package registry or a versioned CDN
    path. Every one is a copy-paste snippet or a platform app, so there is no published
    version a merchant can pin, audit, or roll back.
