“I know a few of you have doubts about how much progress
we have made this year. That feeling exists because we have
only shipped 8 features.
So we don’t have what I call the illusion of progress.
Highlights
• 30 Day Retention is ~2x up
• High Engagement Bucket is ~2x up
• % of MAU using the product for >12 days in a month is 50% up”
