Name things that age
We treat event names as copy, not as developer leftovers. A property that cannot be explained to a new hire in one sentence does not ship.
Studio · Aberdeenshire
Sourcevectorgrid is a small teaching studio for app analytics. We train product people to name events they can still read in two years, and to stop treating a funnel as proof.
See the 2026 programmes“I arrived with seventeen ‘activation’ events and left with four. The studio did not make the charts prettier; it made the argument shorter.”Marta K. · product lead, Bristol payments app · Product Telemetry Studio
Flagship
Six weeks on the grammar of product instrumentation. You will rebuild an event taxonomy for a living app, defend it in critique, and learn where a dashboard is allowed to stay ugly.
Seats are limited because every taxonomy is read aloud. Informational fee: £1,480.

We treat event names as copy, not as developer leftovers. A property that cannot be explained to a new hire in one sentence does not ship.
Retention is not a vibe. You will pick a first event, a return event, and a window, then live with the boredom of that choice.
Drop-off charts flatter the product when the steps are optional. We teach you to spot the costume and say so in the room.

When a step is skippable, the chart is theatre. A test you can run in an afternoon.
