"Utilizing Deepdive's segmentation analysis, we were able to obtain a granular insight into the distinct retention patterns of our enterprise versus non-enterprise customers. We could break up our overall retention into unique segments to provide context on what is truly driving the topline numbers. Deepdive made what was once a complex task into a simple and actionable UI."

/CEO, CareWell

"Deepdive's segmentation analysis transformed the way we look at our customer base. By offering granular insights into the various retention patterns of our customer types, it unlocked a precise understanding of customer lifetime value across different segments. This insight allowed us to allocate our customer acquisition budget more strategically and efficiently. What was once a complex task has been made simple and actionable through Deepdive's user-friendly interface."

/CEO, GRIN

"Deepdive's 'Cumulative CAC Over S&M Spent' payback metric has become a critical KPI we use to monitor the efficiency of ramping up our customer acquisition efforts. We now use it in all our funding and board decks to properly visualize the return we get from investing in customer acquisition."

/COO, Polygon.io

"At Polygon we're using Deepdive for accurate insights into our true customer LTV and how this is evolving over time, which is well beyond what Stripe reports could ever tell us. Simply dividing one with our annual churn rate and multiplying that with our average contract value is just a fictitious estimate."

"As a data driven organization, we are getting tremendous value from Deepdive, and it complements our internal BI perfectly. And being able to share, analyze, and review our data with Headline only makes the process and relationship better and bigger for us. This level of support is hard to come by from investors, it's a really refreshing approach and a value add provided by Headline!"
