Why this topic matters
Most teams track metrics that look impressive but drive little decisions. AI makes it easier to measure everything - which makes it easier to measure the wrong things. The gap between high performers isn't data literacy; it's metric judgment. Learn the framework that helps you define what actually matters, so you can trust your metrics to guide real product decisions.
