The metric catalog
Meteroid ships 34 built-in metrics across 7 groups, plus your own usage metrics. Every metric supports a table view, and most support several visualizations and breakdowns.Recurring revenue
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| MRR | Monthly recurring revenue (a stock value at each point in time). |
| Annual Run Rate (ARR) | MRR annualized. |
| Net MRR Movements | Net new MRR (new + expansion + reactivation − contraction − churn). |
| MRR Movements | The movement waterfall, split by movement type. |
| New Business / Expansion / Contraction / Reactivation / Churned MRR | The individual movement components. |
Revenue
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Billed Revenue | Revenue billed in the period. |
| Revenue by Charge Type | Billed revenue split into usage / recurring / one-time. |
| Usage / Recurring / One-time Revenue | Billed revenue by charge type, as standalone metrics. |
| Recognized Revenue | Revenue recognized in the period (ASC 606 style). |
| Deferred Revenue | Revenue billed but not yet recognized (a stock value). |
Cash
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Collected Revenue | Cash actually collected. |
| Invoiced (Gross) | Total invoiced amount. |

| New / Churned Subscriptions | Subscriptions started and cancelled in the period. |
Customers
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Active Customers | Customers with an active subscription (a stock value). |
| Average Revenue Per Account (ARPA) | Revenue divided by active accounts. |
Retention
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Gross MRR Churn Rate | Churned MRR as a percentage. |
| Gross Revenue Retention (GRR) | Retained recurring revenue excluding expansion. |
| Net Revenue Retention (NRR) | Retained recurring revenue including expansion. |
| Logo Churn Rate | Customer (logo) churn as a percentage. |
| Lifetime Value (LTV) | Estimated customer lifetime value. |
| Quick Ratio | (New + expansion) ÷ (contraction + churn). |
Usage metrics
Your own billable metrics appear here automatically. Each is an aggregation over your events—sum, avg, min, max, count, count distinct or latest of an event property—and can be charted, broken down and monitored like any built-in metric. See Billable metrics.
The explorer
Opening a metric lands you in the explorer. From there you can:Read the headline
A large KPI shows the current value, the period, and the change vs. the
start of the range, colored by whether the movement is good or bad for
that metric.
Choose a visualization
Switch between Line, Area, Bar, Stacked, Table,
Breakdown (a pivot with row totals) and KPI. Only visualizations
that make sense for the current metric and breakdown are offered.
Break down by a dimension or segment
Use Break down by to split one series into many—one per dimension value.
You can combine a primary and a secondary dimension (e.g.
US · pro),
cap the primary to a Top N (the rest roll up into “Other”), or split
by segment to get one series per saved cohort.Filter
Add removable filter chips: Plan, Product (for revenue metrics),
Customer, and any enum filters the metric advertises (charge type,
movement type…). Set an Audience to restrict the entire chart to a
single customer segment.
Transform & forecast
Apply a Compare transform—running total, period-over-period delta, %
change, or moving average. Toggle Forecast to project a single line/area
metric 7–90 days forward with a confidence band.
Save or export
Export CSV, save the exploration as a custom chart, or click Add
monitor to open a Steering alert pre-filled with
the chart’s exact metric, filters and breakdown.
Breakdown dimensions
Depending on the metric, you can break down by:| Dimension | Notes |
|---|---|
| Plan | By plan. |
| Product | Revenue-item metrics only. |
| Country / Currency | From customer attributes. |
| Customer | One series per individual customer. |
| Customer type | By derived lifecycle state (paying, trialing, free, past due, churned, lead, dormant…). |
| Movement / Charge / Payment method type | Native breakdowns on the relevant metrics. |
| Event properties | For usage metrics, the distinct properties on your events are discovered automatically and offered as breakdowns. |
Saved views
Saving an exploration persists the full state—metric, visualization, compare transform, breakdown (and secondary), Top-N, filters, split cohorts and audience—as a Custom chart you can reopen or drop onto a dashboard. Saved charts are the building blocks for dashboards.Compound metrics
When the catalog doesn’t ship the KPI you need, build a compound metric—for example revenue per account, per-unit margin, markup, or expansion ÷ churn. Open the Compound metrics tab.- Terms. Combine up to 3 terms. Each term is a built-in catalog metric, one of your usage metrics, or a typed constant you enter (a cost rate, a divisor, a target). Eligible metric terms are single per-window aggregates (no breakdown).
- Operators. Combine terms with ÷ (ratio), × (times), + (plus) or − (minus), with explicit grouping—
(A op B) op CvsA op (B op C)—so there’s no precedence guessing. - Format. Choose Auto, Currency or Number for how the result is displayed.
- Presets. Start from a preset when its inputs are available: Revenue per account, Expansion ÷ Churn, or Margin per account (with a cost constant).
