Retention is not one number. These Reports answer who comes back, when, why, and whether it was worth acquiring them.
What a group of Customers is worth at three, six and twelve months — with a confidence band on predicted months and CAC Payback marked on the month it happens.
The same Cohorts split by first Product, product type, country, Channel, tag or discount code, so you can see which first purchase makes a great Customer.
The share of Customers who buy again within 30, 60, 90, 180 or 365 days, Cohort by Cohort.
How many days pass between a Customer’s first and second Order, second and third, and on — the number your email flows should be timed to.
Which first Products, Channels and tags genuinely lift lifetime value, ranked by statistical confidence. Anything that doesn’t clear the bar never ranks.
Start from any Product and see what Customers buy next, how long it takes, and what each path is worth after a year.
Ask “which Products create my best Customers?” and get LTV Drivers, already filtered.
Cohort questions are the ones founders most often give up on. Ask in plain language and Kompass runs the Cohort, applies the split, and hands you the Report.
How Ask Kompass Works →The Customer's earliest Order in your Store's history, not the earliest one Kompound happened to see. We backfill your full Order history so a Customer who first bought in 2023 is anchored in 2023.
It extends your own Cohort curve past where history ends, with a confidence band. Predicted cells are visibly marked on the matrix and in every export.
No. Cohort Reports are always built on the complete Order history, because excluding Orders would break the anchor. The Report says so on the page.
Yes. Payback is drawn on the matrix at the month cumulative Revenue per Customer passes that Cohort's CAC.
Cohorts on every Customer's true First Order, with CAC Payback marked on the month it happens.
