Example output

Cohorts: group users by signup month. Periods: months 0 through 11 after signup. Cell metric: percent of the cohort that performed a purchase in that month. Outline: join users to events, compute months_since_signup, then pivot cohort_month by months_since_signup averaging the active flag. Reading: a healthy curve flattens after a few periods; a curve that keeps falling toward zero signals a retention problem.
