Estimated duration
Usually 4-15 min
30-day retention before cleanup
Results, submitted inputs, and uploaded file metadata are kept for 30 days after execution, then cleaned up.
HistoryUse this when users sign up but never reach value. It defines the aha moment and activation metric from your own evidence, redesigns the flow so the first value-producing action happens as early as possible, picks onboarding components for your drop points, and lists every friction cut with rationale — do, don't show; one goal per session.
-
Prepare: product, your current signup-to-value funnel with steps and drop points, and what you know about what retained users do differently.
-
You get: activation definition and metric, redesigned flow, toolkit picks with rationale, friction cut list, and a measurement plan.
-
Use it for: first-run experience, activation rate improvement, and trial-to-value redesign.
