Example Output

Activation Funnel Map

Conversion by Stage:

  • Awareness → Signup: 15% (industry: 8-12% ✓)
  • Signup → Profile Setup: 62% (bottleneck: password requirements too strict)
  • Profile Setup → First Action: 34% (drop-off: unclear value prop)
  • First Action → Day 7 Repeat: 28% (churn risk: unclear next steps)

Top 3 Experiments to Run

1. Simplified OAuth Onboarding

  • Hypothesis: Removing non-essential profile fields increases completion to 75%+
  • Success metric: +15% profile setup completion

  • Success metric: +20% day 1 first action rate
  • Sample size: 3,000 users | Timeline: 1 week

3. Habit-Loop Email Drip
