We asked for specifics: a module, a chart, a disagreement. Glowing blurbs without a product are not published here.
The event contract from week two is still taped above our analytics project. Our CS lead finally stopped logging “clicked_help” as if it were a feature request. I would have liked more time on billing events; we only sketched them.

Taxonomy Clinic was brisk. They rejected three of our “engagement” events on sight. The written punch-list arrived on day eight, not day one.

Helen made us split trial and paid in the cohort view during module four. Our “improvement” vanished. That was the point. The founder pack template saved me from a fourteen-slide habit I had picked up at a previous job.

Anonymous client in HR tech: the Live Studio did not fix our tracking debt. It did stop us adding twelve more events while the old ones were unnamed. We still need an engineer for the implementation; the course never pretended otherwise.
A UK invoicing product arrived with 400 event names and no owner. During Reading Product Behaviour they froze new events, wrote contracts for fourteen verbs, and moved “invoice_sent” from a frontend click to a server confirmation. Activation was redefined as the first invoice paid through the product, not the first logo upload. Retention still looked lumpy around month-end; they kept the lump instead of averaging it. Six months later they told us the board pack is one page. They did not attribute revenue to the studio, which is honest.
A two-person product+data pair used the pair seat. Their “aha” event was a tutorial checkbox. Module two replaced it with the first successful API call from a customer environment. Qualitative last mile (module five) showed that failed calls were being counted as engagement because errors still fired a page view. They left with a founder cadence and an open argument about whether sales-assisted accounts belong in the same cohort as self-serve — unresolved, and documented as such.
