Unified product analytics, GA4, Mixpanel, and warehouse bridge

Conflicting activation metrics across tools, event dictionary, dbt models, and executive dashboard aligned growth and engineering.

An edtech platform, marketing used GA4, product used Mixpanel, finance used warehouse exports, reported three different activation numbers in the same leadership meeting.

Simplileap instrumentation plan: canonical event dictionary in Notion with owner per event; Segment-style taxonomy implemented via RudderStack; dbt models in Snowflake as source of truth; Looker dashboard for exec KPIs.

Problems: legacy events fired pre-consent, Consent Mode alignment; mobile app version skew, schema versioning with JSON schema CI check; Mixpanel historical data not backfillable, documented cutoff date in dashboard footnotes.

Alerting: anomaly detection on daily signup funnel with PagerDuty to growth engineer on-call.

Outcome: single activation definition adopted in QBR; experiment analysis time down 40%; data team tickets on "which number is right" near zero. Edtech platform anonymized.
