Guess what day most people lose their streak?

Trophy is now powering over 24M streaks which is kind of crazy to think about considering we only launched 1.0 here in January this year.

One of the parts I find most interesting about building horizontal infrastructure is that as you scale and power more and more products you get to see insights that most teams building in isolation will only see a part of, and you can use those insights to make the the infrastructure better for everyone.

For example, because we power streaks for so many users, Trophy can tell that 25% of all streaks are lost on a Friday, closely followed by Saturday (19%) and then Wednesday (18%).

This is across all products Trophy powers, but we can use this to back up insights for each products specific use case and start powering advanced features for them.

The most obvious next step from here is to start working on improving our streak infrastructure to personalize streaks reminders for each user, including sending targeted reminders based on when each user is most likely to lose their streak.

Lot's more insights like this to follow!

Happy building!
