Revenue tells you what happened. Cohorts tell you what happens next.

You spend more capital on your company than any VC ever will. Looking at it objectively isn't optional — it's imperative.

Cohorts determine how you finance your business.

  • Marketing payback is a working capital use
  • Inventory purchases depend on repeat behavior
  • Discounting reshapes long-term margin
  • Product mix changes retention curves
  • Scaling too early can kill a good business

Cohorts tell you when to slow down. And when to press the accelerator.

Not all customers are created equal.

Cohorts show:

  • Which first products create durable buyers
  • Which channels generate real LTV
  • Which discounts weaken behavior
  • Who your best customers actually are

This is how investors underwrite businesses.
