The dashboard is correct — D30 retention did drop, from 38.4% (Jun) to 31.9% (Sep). Two changes line up:
- Jul 18 — paywall moved from D14 to D7 [1]
- Aug 02 — onboarding step removed for invited users [2]
The Aug 02 change is the larger contributor (≈4.1 pp). I'd recommend reverting the onboarding cut for invited cohorts first; the paywall change is paying for itself in revenue.
