What analytics view should I ship first?

Ship one weekly decision dashboard that maps activity metrics to business outcomes so users know what to change next.

How can I avoid vanity metrics?

Prioritize leading indicators tied to revenue, retention, or conversion instead of reporting only traffic and engagement counts.

Most early customers prefer strong defaults. Start with opinionated templates and add custom views after usage patterns are clear.
