Most funnels flatter the product. Ours hold a mirror to the first hour.

We teach Onboarding Drop-Off Analytics as a craft: how people stall, what the event stream actually proves, and which leaks are theatre.

How the studio teaches

We would rather you leave with a narrower claim than a prettier deck.

One product, one funnel

You bring a real onboarding surface — wallet, marketplace, B2B console, or consumer app. We refuse synthetic case studies after week two because they hide the mess that Thailand-scale ops actually produce.

Peer defence, not applause

Each diagnostic is presented to another cohort member who is instructed to find the weakest assumption. It is uncomfortable on purpose. Funnels that cannot survive a polite interrogation do not belong in a board pack.

Quiet office hours

Live sessions stay small. Office hours are booked in forty-minute slots from the Thon Buri studio or remote. We do not run “unlimited Slack” because unlimited attention is a marketing line, not a practice.

People who sat through the work

“The Activation Event Taxonomy module forced us to retire three ‘completed onboarding’ events that were really just screen views. Our drop-off chart got worse before it got useful.”

I still think the interview homework is heavier than the listing admits, especially if your research partner is busy. The drop-curve templates, though, are what our data team still opens on Mondays.

What you take home

A working atlas of where first-hour users leave — and why the chart lied.

  • A named activation definition your engineering and CX teams can both defend
  • Cohort drop curves that separate silent accounts from failed attempts
  • A short experiment backlog ranked by leak size, not by stakeholder volume
  • Language for Thailand privacy reviews when event payloads get too intimate

Reading activation drop curves without lying to yourself

Why a smooth day-1 to day-7 line is often a sampling artefact, and how to keep the quiet majority on the page.
