How it works
List metrics
3-5 metrics is typically enough to answer a focused question.
Decide on filtering and export
Both add complexity — defer unless clearly needed at launch.

Frequently asked questions
How many metrics should a first report show?
3-5 is a reasonable range — more starts to resemble a full BI tool.
Do I need date filtering at launch?
Often not — a simple fixed view (e.g. this month) is enough until customers ask for more.
What if customers want a dashboard, not a report?
Start with the single question this tool scopes, then expand once that's validated.
