Module 2.2: Analyze Data

Reference Guide

  • Prerequisites: Completed Module 2.1 or familiar with @ mentions and Editor view

Start this module in Antigravity: Run /start-2-2 to begin the interactive lesson.

📖 Overview

Learn how to use Antigravity for the complete data-driven PM workflow: discovering problems with funnel and survey data, estimating impact with ROI models, and analyzing A/B test results.

Key takeaway: What takes 4-6 hours in spreadsheets takes 30 minutes with Antigravity. Iteration is free - keep asking questions until you find the insight.

Data-Driven PM Workflow

Antigravity handles the full cycle:

Phase 1: Discovery

  1. Analyze funnel data to find drop-off points
  2. Extract themes from survey responses
  3. Synthesize findings into problem analysis

Phase 2: Impact Estimation

  1. Use framework to build ROI model
  2. Create three scenarios (pessimistic, realistic, optimistic)
  3. Calculate expected lift and revenue impact

Phase 3: Experiment Analysis

  1. Compare control vs treatment topline
  2. Segment by key dimensions (company size, user type)
  3. Check quality metrics (retention, engagement)
  4. Review leading indicators (template usage, invites)
  5. Create executive readout with recommendation

Working with CSV Files

The Antigravity Advantage

CSVs won’t preview visually in Antigravity, but that’s actually fine:

  • Antigravity reads CSV files and presents data in formatted tables
  • No formulas, no pivot tables needed
  • Just @ mention the file and ask for analysis

Want to see raw data? Open in Excel, Google Sheets, or VS Code. But for analysis, stay in Antigravity.

Basic Pattern

@ mention your-data.csv and analyze it to find [what you're looking for]

Antigravity will:

  • Read all rows
  • Calculate metrics
  • Format results as tables
  • Identify patterns
  • Present insights

Common PM Analytics Tasks

TaskExample Command
Funnel analysis”@ mention funnel-data.csv and find where users drop off”
Survey themes”@ mention survey.csv and extract top 5 themes from responses”
Cohort analysis”Segment by company_size and compare activation rates”
Quality metrics”Filter to activated users and compare Week 1 retention”
Leading indicators”Calculate template usage and invite rates by cohort”
ROI modeling”@ mention usage-data.csv and framework.md and build three ROI scenarios”

The Power of Segmentation

When topline results look disappointing, dig deeper:

Iteration is Free

With spreadsheets:

  • Each new segment = rebuild pivot tables (20-30 min)
  • Filters require formula updates
  • One view at a time

With Antigravity:

  • Each new segment = one more command (instant)
  • “Not satisfied? Try another view”
  • Keep iterating until you find the insight

Example: Revealing Hidden Wins

Topline: 45% → 48% activation (+2.6pp)

  • Looks underwhelming
  • Barely significant (p=0.04)

One command: “Segment by company size”

Result:

  • Small teams (target market): 45% → 56% (+11.4pp, p < 0.001) ✓
  • Enterprise: 45% → 42% (-3.5pp) ✗

New strategy: Ship to small teams only

This is why Antigravity shines: effortless iteration reveals insights that spreadsheets hide.

Three-Scenario Impact Models

The Framework

Impact = Users Affected x Current Rate x Expected Lift x Value per Action

Always Model Three Scenarios

ScenarioAdoptionLiftUse Case
Pessimistic20th percentileConservativeWorst case planning
Realistic50th percentileModerateBase case estimate
Optimistic80th percentileStrongBest case potential

Why Three?

  • Shows range of outcomes
  • Builds confidence with leadership
  • Accounts for uncertainty
  • Even pessimistic shows ROI → strong case

Quality Over Quantity

Don’t stop at topline activation - check if activated users are better quality:

Metrics to Check

Retention:

  • Week 1 active days (3+ = retained)
  • 7-day return rate

Engagement:

  • Tasks completed in Week 1
  • Feature usage depth

Leading indicators:

  • Template/example usage (predicts stickiness)
  • Invite rate (predicts viral growth)
  • Time to first value

Pattern

Filter to activated users only and compare [quality metric] between control and treatment

Quick Example: TaskFlow Activation

Scenario: 45% activation stuck for 6 months

Discovery (5 min):

  • Funnel data: 60% drop between task creation and completion
  • Survey themes: “Didn’t know what to create” (35%), “needed examples” (28%)

Impact Estimation (10 min):

  • Three ROI scenarios: 2.6x to 17.6x over 3 years
  • Solution: Guided onboarding with sample project

Experiment Analysis (15 min):

  • Topline: +2.6pp (underwhelming)
  • Segmented: Small teams +11.4pp, enterprise -3.5pp
  • Quality: Retention +18pp, engagement 2.3x
  • Recommendation: Ship to small teams only

Total time: 30 minutes vs 4-6 hours in spreadsheets

🐛 Troubleshooting

”Antigravity won’t open my CSV file”

Fix: CSV files don’t preview visually in Antigravity. That’s expected. Use @ mention to analyze the data - Antigravity will read it and present results in tables.

”Results don’t match my Excel calculations”

Fix: Ask Antigravity to show its calculation logic. Likely counting/filtering differently. Specify exactly what to include/exclude.

”I need a different view of the data”

Fix: Just ask! “Now segment by X” or “Filter to users who Y” or “Show me metric Z instead.” Iteration is instant with Antigravity.

”How do I know if results are statistically significant?”

Fix: Ask Antigravity to calculate significance. With 2,000+ users per cohort, lifts >3-5pp are usually significant. Request p-values for clarity.
