Metric Hierarchy

Structure metrics in layers:

• North star: the one metric that captures your product's core value delivery
• Health metrics (3-5): the vital signs of product health — retention, activation, engagement, revenue
• Feature metrics: per-feature adoption, usage, and satisfaction
• MUST have a clear north star. If you track 20 metrics equally, you track none.
• Each metric SHOULD connect to the one above it in the hierarchy
