Inputs and dependency contract

Defensible evidence includes product analytics, experimentation, CRM, billing and media data and connect them to the growth loop learning board. Plan toward retained growth; activated customers; compounding learning, track readiness through experiment velocity; activation; retention; referral quality, and expose constraints such as funnel step; cohort; experiment; product surface; channel. Separate committed dates from provisional windows, and distinguish customer-facing milestones from internal preparation, review and measurement work.
