Patrick Bass Area: Monetization (audit p10) · Surface: /admin/gate?tab=dashboard · Dimension: feature-improvement · Severity: minor
Circle and Mighty Networks give creators a revenue dashboard with MRR over time, ARPU, trial conversion, and churn-rate trend — the metrics creators actually steer by. We compute trial_days (GateTier) and track trialing status but never report the trial-conversion rate, and MRR is shown as a single number with no trend line. Compared to the credit-economy admin (which already ships Chart.js trends and a Gini coefficient, AdminEconomyController.php), the paid-membership dashboard is under-instrumented for the revenue that matters most.
Evidence
GateSubscription::stats/revenue (src/Models/GateSubscription.php) and templates/admin/gate/dashboard.php surface active/past_due/new_30d/churned_30d and a computed MRR (dashboard.php:24-30,80-96). There is no LTV, no ARPU, no trial→paid conversion rate, and no time-series chart — the dashboard is a static stat strip. grep for LTV|ARPU|cohort|retention returns nothing in these files.Suggested fix. Add an MRR/active-subscriber time-series chart (reuse the Chart.js pattern from /admin/economy and /account/credits), plus ARPU, blended churn rate, and trial→paid conversion derived from gate_subscriptions status transitions.
Filed by the automated tenant-app audit and adversarially evidence-verified. Status: verified. Open — not yet actioned.
