Now you can check the status of your imports (succeeded, errored, loaded with no data, in progress, etc.) first thing when you log in to Statsig! With the status right on the homepage, you can now see any delays upfront and diagnose issues as early as possible.
Happy Friday, Statsig Community! We have a fun set of launch announcements for y'all this week.... making every last day count as we come up on the last few weeks of 2022!
Today, we’re excited to add an explicit section into Feature Gates for Monitoring Metrics. This will enable gate creators to call out any metrics they want to monitor as part of a feature rollout, and make it easier for non-creators to know what launch impact to look for.
Note that by default the Core tag will be auto-added to Monitoring Metrics for all new gate creations.
Historically, we’ve supported sending in a Value and JSON metadata with every logged event, enabling you to break out Pulse results by a metric's Value inline within Pulse.
Today, we’re expanding the number of dimensions you can configure for an event, supporting up to 4 custom dimensions that you can define and send in with events to split your analysis by. To configure custom dimensions for your event, go to the Metrics tab → Events, select the event you want to configure and tap "Setup." Note that you cannot yet configure multiple dimensions for Custom Metrics.
Reviewing gate and experiment changes is a core part of the rollout process. Today, we’re making reviews even easier by providing a clearer Before/ After experience to more easily view changes, as well as introducing a new review mode called “Diff View”.
To view changes in Diff View, simply toggle the mode selector in the upper right-hand corner of the review unit from “Visual View” to “Diff View”. Voila!
Hey everyone, we’ve just released a new integration for receiving console notifications on Slack.
This is different from the current Slack integration which just sends audit logs.
To enable, go to “Account Settings” -> “Notifications” tab.
For more information about the app, see https://statsigcommunity.slack.com/apps/A022AA315JN-statsig.
(FYI we are working to get the app approved on Slack’s app store, but this may take some time)
Happy Monday (and Happy Halloween) Statsig Community! We've got some tricks AND some treats up our sleeve for you today, with an exciting set of new product updates-
You may have noticed a new “Dashboards” tab in the left-hand nav of your Console! Last week, we quietly started rolling out the v1 of our new Dashboards product. Dashboards give you a flexible canvas to build dashboards for the metrics, experiments, and rollouts your team cares most about.
With Dashboards, you can-
Create Custom Time Series - Create line or bar charts of your metrics, including dimension breakdowns for events.
Add Experiment and Rollout Monitoring - Add any Experiments or feature roll-outs that may impact your metrics inline on your Dashboard.
Organize and Label Widgets - Quickly and easily organize your widgets on the drag-and-drop canvas of the Dashboard. Add labels to clearly delineate grouped metrics, as well as caption individual charts to clarify metric definitions.
This is an early v1 foundation for our newest product offering, and something that will continue to evolve. If you have any feedback, we would love to hear it! Don’t hesitate to reach out with feature requests or suggestions for improvements.
To make adding relevant folks into the conversation on your Experiments and Gates easier, we’ve added the ability to tag team members in Discussions. Tagging team members in a Discussion comment will notify them via email (and soon Slack as well!)
Powerful search capabilities are key to being able to quickly navigate the Statsig Console. Today, we’re excited to announce that we’ve added keyword search for “started”, “ended”, and “active” search keywords, with support for either one date or a date range.
Attached is a table of how to use these. We've also added explicit filter options next to the search bar that will enable you to filter by Status, Health Check Status, ID Type, Creator, & Tag (all of which are also supported directly inline in Search).
Hey all, just wanted to announce that we have completed work on the Amplitude incoming integration. This will allow you to configure Amplitude to forward events to Statsig.

Today, we’re continuing to invest in our Stats Engine with the addition of Sequential Testing capabilities. In Sequential Testing, the p-values for each preliminary analysis window are adjusted to compensate for the increased false positive rate associated with peeking. The goal is to enable early decision-making when there's sufficient evidence, while limiting the risk of false positives.
To enable Sequential Testing on your experiment, we require setting a target duration (which is used to calculate the adjusted p-values). We provide a handy Power Analysis Calculator within Experiment Setup to enable quick and easy estimation of target duration.
Once a target duration is set, simply toggle on Sequential Testing to start seeing adjusted confidence intervals overlayed over the default 95% confidence interval within your Pulse results.
Happy FRIDAY, Statsig Community! We've made it to the end of the week, which means it's time for another set of product launch announcements!
Today, we’re excited to debut a sleek new configuration UX for experiment groups and parameters. Easily see your layer allocation, any targeting gates you’re using, experiment parameters, groups, and group split percentages in one, clear visual breakdown.
We believe this will make setting up experiments more intuitive for members of your team who are newer to Statsig, as well as give experiment creators and viewers alike an intuitive overview of how the experiment is configured.
It’s oftentimes considered best practice to regularly ensure the health of your stats engine and your metrics by running periodic A/A tests. We’ve made running these A/A tests at scale easy by setting up simulated A/A tests that run every day in the background, for every company on the platform. Starting today, you can download the running history of your simulated A/A test performance via the “Tools” menu in your Statsig Console.
We run 10 tests/ day, and the download will include your last 30 days of test results. Please note that we only started running these simulations ~1 week ago, so a download today will only include ~70 sets of simulation results.
Happy Friday, Statsig Community! Ending the week on a high note with a few new product launches for y'all-
This past week we added support for Stable & Custom IDs into Autotune, broadening the scope of use-cases you can run an Autotune experiment on. To learn more about leveraging Autotune, check out our docs here.
We’ve made double-clicking on data generated in Statsig even easier, by enabling you to download your Events Explorer results in CSV format. Please note that this is only available for Table and Sample views.
P.S.- Keep your eyes peeled for something special in the Statsig Console…
Good morning, Statsig Community! Fun launch update to start off your Thursday- announcing your new Home Tab!
Today, we’re starting to roll out a brand new tab in your Statsig Console, the Home Tab. The Home Tab serves as a launchpad into all the most important things happening in your team’s Statsig project.
Key features include-
Velocity Charts- helps teams easily track their experimentation and launch velocity
Core Metrics- A preview of the metrics with the "Core" tag to will show up on your Home Tab. If you haven’t tagged any metrics with "Core" yet (or you want to change which metrics are marked "Core"), you can manage this tag via the Metrics tab.
Quick Links- Shortcut links to Statsig resources, ability to invite new team members to your Project, and one-tap creation of a new Experiment, Feature Gate, etc.
Feed- Surfaces recent activity, making keeping tabs on what your team is testing and launching easy
We’re thrilled to announce that today we're rolling out native integrations with popular data warehouses (DWs) including Snowflake, Redshift, and BigQuery. Now you can import metrics directly from your existing DW tables and automatically include them in the results of all of your experiments, feature gates, and holdouts.
Ingesting precomputed metrics from DWs was been a common request from customers who have a well-established modern data stack. Our new native DW integrations enable you to immediately start measuring your team’s core metrics and KPIs for every product launch as you scale out product experimentation with Statsig
You can now simply enter your DW connection string in the Statsig console, map data in your tables to Statsig fields, and start to automatically ingest precomputed metrics into your project to observe metric shifts for every product update.
To get started, navigate to Metrics from the left-hand navigation panel and click on the Ingestion tab to add new metrics. In addition to ingesting metrics daily, you run an initial backfill to bootstrap your Metrics Catalog and validate that the integration is working as expected. To learn more, visit our documentation for Data Warehouse Ingestion
You can start ingesting precomputed metrics and raw events from Snowflake, Redshift, and BigQuery today, with support for Databricks coming soon. To request access, please hit us up!
