Trends

Usermaven's Trends feature helps you visualize how key metrics, events, and user behaviors change over time.

Whether you're tracking signups, feature adoption, engagement, or marketing performance, Trends provides the flexibility to explore your data from multiple perspectives.


Trends help you:

  • Monitor product and marketing performance over time.

  • Compare multiple events or metrics.

  • Analyze user behavior across different segments.

  • Identify patterns, anomalies, and growth opportunities.

  • Build custom reports using metrics, filters, and breakdowns.


Using Trends, you can:

  • Track events and metrics over time.

  • Compare multiple metrics in a single report.

  • Break down data by user, company, session, or event properties.

  • Apply filters to focus on specific audiences.

  • Visualize data using charts, tables, counters, gauges, and more.


Creating a Trend

Navigate to Analytics → Trends and click the + button in the top-right corner.

You can create a trend in four ways:


Choose from pre-built templates such as:

  • Website Traffic & Engagement Overview

  • Website Traffic Trends

  • Top Channels

  • Top Traffic Sources

  • Top UTM Campaigns

  • Top UTM Sources

  • Top UTM Mediums

Simply click Add to instantly create the report.


Start with a previously created trend and modify it instead of building one from scratch.


3. Ask AI

Describe the report you want in natural language.

Examples:

  • Show daily active users over the last 30 days.

  • Compare signups and purchases this quarter.

  • Show top traffic sources by unique visitors.

Usermaven will automatically generate the trend based on your request.


4. Build from Scratch

Create a fully customized trend report by configuring metrics, filters, breakdowns, and visualizations.
