SaaS Subscription Analytics 2026: MRR, Churn and LTV Dashboard for SaaS Business
Do you run a SaaS product but track MRR in Excel, estimate churn in your head, and last checked LTV a quarter ago? Without a unified subscription metrics dashboard, it's impossible to tell whether your business is growing or slowly sinking. Investors and advisors ask for these numbers at every call.
Key facts
- Average B2B SaaS churn is 3.5% per year, but with monthly billing it's twice as high — a silent revenue killer
- LTV = ARPU / churn rate; reducing churn from 5% to 3% increases LTV by 66%
- Specialized tools (ChartMogul, Baremetrics) start at $49/month and require Stripe/Recurly integrations
- SimpleDashboard builds an MRR, churn and LTV dashboard in 5 minutes from a CSV export — no connectors needed

How to Set Up a Subscription Metrics Dashboard in 3 Steps?
An MRR, churn and LTV dashboard can be built from any billing export — you just need a CSV with: date, user_id, plan, amount, subscription status.
Step 1. Prepare Your Data
Export transactions from Stripe, Paddle, or your internal CRM to CSV. You need: payment date, customer ID, plan, amount, status (active / cancelled). If data is scattered — consolidate it into a single table.
Step 2. Describe the Dashboard in Chat
Open @coderboxbot and type: "Build a SaaS dashboard: MRR and ARR by month, monthly churn rate, LTV by plan, ARPU, cohort retention analysis, top-revenue plan". AI will select charts and KPI cards automatically.
Step 3. Get Your Analytics Ready
A dashboard with an MRR line chart, churn gauge, LTV cohort table, and ARR/ARPU KPI cards will be ready in 1–3 minutes. Share the link with investors or embed it in Notion.
