What are the key metrics you use to determine if you've achieved product-market fit?

Question

Registrations? Activations? MAU?
I'm curious to know what you typically focus on

For me, key metrics include retention rate and customer feedback. If people are consistently using the product and finding value, that's a strong sign of product-market fit!

Aria Madeline Sinclair · Answer

Agree that retention rate is key - if users are sticking around and consistently engaging, that's a great sign you're solving a real need for them. Would add NPS and organic referral rate too. If users love your product enough to keep using it and tell others about it unprompted, you're def onto something with product-market fit!

One of the key metrics I focus on to determine product-market fit is the number of paid users. It’s a clear indicator that customers see enough value in the product to invest in it. Beyond that, I also look at retention rates and user engagement to ensure the product continues to meet their needs.

For me, the magic moments are when customers start raving about how the product has improved their lives or work! Seeing high engagement, low churn, and organic referrals are good quantitative signals of PMF. But the qualitative feedback and stories of people loving the product is what really shows you've nailed it!

To see if we've achieved product-market fit, I look at customer retention rates and Net Promoter Score (NPS) to gauge satisfaction. I also track monthly active users (MAU) and growth in registrations to measure engagement and interest in the product.
