Ask HN: What numbers/metrics are most interesting to you for new startups?
When you read startups' blog posts, launch announcements, monthly checkins, funding announcements, postmortems, etc., in which they share their numbers, which metrics do you find most interesting and useful? Growth/retention rate? Website traffic? Revenue/profit charts?
Are there any metrics that don't normally get included in the standard rundowns, but which would be especially interesting or insightful? I'm thinking mainly of tech- and web-based startups, but this could apply to a broader category of companies than that.

- alexpete 10y agoThat's cool, thanks! I was more asking in terms of case studies and information-sharing. Trevor Blackwell's tool seems like it's more for the idealist/planning stage.
