Product Metrics Hierarchy

North Star Metric

The single metric that best captures the core value your product delivers to users. It should be:

• Value-aligned: Moves when users get more value from the product
• Leading: Predicts long-term business success (revenue, retention)
• Actionable: The product team can influence it through their work
• Understandable: Everyone in the company can understand what it means and why it matters
