A framework for measuring the profit made from each customer, including acquisition cost, customer lifetime value, payback time, and contribution margin. It compares these measures across customer groups and marketing channels.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compare customer quality by channel, investigate rising acquisition costs, estimate how quickly marketing spend is recovered, and prepare investor or financial reports.
Why use it?
It shows whether acquiring customers is profitable and why results may be changing. This helps set spending limits and test assumptions about customer value.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

unit-economics-tracking scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Unit Economics Tracking

Overview

Unit economics describes the financial dynamics of a single customer. The four key metrics — Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), Customer Lifetime Value (LTV), the LTV:CAC ratio, and payback period — tell you whether your business model is economically viable. These metrics are among the most scrutinized by investors and boards because they reveal the underlying health of the business independent of short-term revenue trends.

This skill guides you through calculating and tracking these metrics using your platform's analytics tools and dedicated customer analytics apps.

When to Use This Skill

  • When preparing investor materials and needing to present unit economics metrics
  • When understanding whether it is profitable to increase marketing spend in a given channel
  • When analyzing why CAC has increased over the past 6 months
  • When comparing the quality of customers acquired through different channels
  • When building a financial model and needing to validate LTV assumptions
  • When setting budget guardrails: maximum allowable CAC by channel
  • When evaluating a new acquisition channel and projecting its payback period

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
