SaaS Metric Monitoring

SaaS metrics move fast.
Know the moment they do.

Lighthouse connects to your data warehouse and monitors your SaaS KPIs continuously. MRR drops, churn spikes, activation falls — your team gets a Slack alert immediately, not at the Friday standup.

Your warehouse has the answers. Nobody's asking.

Your MRR, churn, activation, and DAU data sits in your warehouse. Dashboards exist. But dashboards require someone to look at them. When a metric moves at 11pm on a Tuesday, nobody's checking Looker.

Built for SaaS teams that care about outcomes

Different teams, different metrics — all in the same workspace.

Data & Analytics

Connect warehouses, create metrics, set alert policies. Lighthouse becomes the monitoring layer your whole company can use — without every request going through you.

Product & Growth

Describe the metrics you care about in plain English. Get alerted when feature adoption drops, activation falls, or a funnel step degrades. No SQL, no tickets.

Finance & Revenue Ops

Monitor MRR, churn, billing failures, and expansion revenue. Know the moment a revenue metric moves — before the end-of-month reconciliation reveals the damage.

Customer Success

Track product usage signals that predict churn — session frequency, feature adoption, time-since-last-login — for any segment. Get alerted before customers disengage.

How it works

First SaaS alert in under 10 minutes.

01

Connect your warehouse

Add read-only credentials for Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, or Postgres. Lighthouse scans your schema and is ready in minutes.

02

Describe a SaaS metric

Type 'MRR by plan tier, compared to last week' or 'trial-to-paid conversion rate, last 7 days.' Lighthouse writes the SQL, sets compare periods, and builds an adaptive baseline.

03

Get alerted in Slack

When the metric moves outside its normal range, your team gets a Slack alert with the current value, baseline, change %, segment, and severity. No dashboard required.

Common questions

How is this different from a SaaS analytics dashboard?

Dashboards are reactive — someone has to open them. Lighthouse is proactive — your team gets a Slack alert the moment a metric moves past its normal range. They complement each other: Lighthouse tells you something changed, your dashboard helps you understand why.

Can I monitor MRR and churn from my warehouse?

Yes. If your billing data lands in Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, or Postgres, Lighthouse can watch it. Describe what you want — 'MRR by plan tier, compared to the same day last week' — and Lighthouse writes the SQL automatically.

Can product managers and growth teams use this without SQL?

That's the point. Lighthouse lets non-technical users describe metrics in plain English. No SQL, no tickets to the data team. Product, growth, and finance can define and own their own alerts independently.

How does Lighthouse handle SaaS seasonality like end-of-month spikes?

Lighthouse compares each metric to a rolling baseline — same day of week, same time of day, averaged over the last 4 weeks. End-of-month patterns are factored in automatically as they recur.

We already have a BI tool. Why do we need this?

BI tools answer questions you ask. Lighthouse answers questions you forgot to ask. When MRR churn ticks up unexpectedly at 2am, nobody's looking at a Looker dashboard. Lighthouse fires a Slack alert immediately.
