How it works
Apply weighted evidence
Value and repeat-use correlation each carry 30%; timing and observability 20%.
Choose the strongest signal
The highest score becomes the working activation event.
Frequently asked questions
Is signup activation?
Usually not; signup shows intent while activation should indicate received value.
How do I score repeat-use correlation?
Start with a hypothesis, then compare retention for users who did and did not complete the event.
Can there be several events?
Different roles may differ, but choose one primary event per core journey.
Does this prove causation?
No. It ranks candidates from your inputs; behavioural analysis is still required.
