Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Most founders can quote retention rates, but few can show them. This guide breaks down the three cohort charts every operator should know - range retention tables, spider charts, and stacked area charts - and explains when to use each. You'll learn how to build them, interpret the patterns, and turn a pile of numbers into a story about what's really happening in your customer base.
