Startup Metric

Definitions

1. Any measurement commonly used to understand startup health, such as burn, runway, activation, retention, ARR, or CAC. The phrase is generic, but in practice the right metric depends heavily on stage and business model.

   In plain English: A metric used to judge how a startup is performing.

   Example: "The deck listed every startup metric except the one investors really wanted to see: retention."
