title: Pirate Metrics

## Pirate Metrics
Dave McClure identified five high-level metric categories critical to a startups success:
Acquisition, Activation, Retention, Revenue, Referral.
He coined the term “Pirate Metrics” from the acronym for these five metric categories (AARRR).
In their book Lean Analytics, Croll and Yoskovitz interpret these metrics visually as a funnel:

And with more pointed explanations as a table:
