Description

In short, DCL-Metrics is a global, public metrics platform for Decentraland and we aim to give a bird's eye view of traffic and users. We do not have the data fidelity of analytics trackers that live in individual scenes but in our estimation that's okay. We're not aiming to be google analytics which gives you every detail about the users that come to your parcel. Instead, we want to showcase the broader view of the world and eventually get to the point where this compiled data is accessible via API. For more details about what we have implemented already, please see our [previous grant proposal](https://decentraland.org/governance/proposal/?id=87fa6ad0-605b-11ee-af3f-d9f6b00b3bf3) or visit [our site](https://www.dcl-metrics.com) **Updates** The biggest changes we have made in this resubmission are as follows: * Decreasing our salary Based on talks with community members, we've reduced our salary from 1666/month to 1500/month for the 10 months of this grant. This does not take into consideration long-term maintenance which will occur after the 10 months - or, if you like, our salary is 625 / month if averaged over the 24 months. * Adding more features These are the QoL improvements, see below. * Cutting the Freelance Budget * Cutting infrastructure costs to 450 / month. During the last months, we considered closing the project as running it without grant funding is, at this time, untenable. I made some improvements to the infrastructure and shifted data around so that I could costs. * Lengthening the runway from 9 months to 24 months With a slightly lower infrastructure budget and trading speed improvements for longevity, we've prioritized keeping the lights on for as long as possible. In these 24 months of budget to cover basic infrastructure costs, we hope to get an API up and running so that we can fund future development. The cost of that development is NOT part of this grant. At this point, we do not plan to ask for a grant for that development work. **Planned Features** Not in order of implementation - see roadmap * Quality of Life Improvements * Live scene traffic reports * Full Scene history * Scene History by Date Range * CSV download of scene stats * Event tracker * Tracking details of major events * Dedicated data page per event * Attaching events to other models (scenes/ users/ etc) * Atlas Corp historical user data integration * https://governance.decentraland.org/update/?id=46271910-19b0-11ee-93a7-ed9294f83f74&proposalId=21db21b0-bc53-11ed-8c13-518b5c1940be * Historical scene history and expanded data scope e.g. * Top users of a given scene over time * Retention metrics * New / guest / named users historical charts * Land / scene utilization graph e.g. * Display ratio of utilized LANDs * Additional Worlds data * Historical data * Deeper integration with /user page * Retention metrics * Calculate retention rate of a given scene / dcl in total - how many users returned after 7 days / 14 days / etc * Improved UI/UX * Variety of formatting of the chart * Consistency of data + FAQ / legends for better readability for users * Clean up technical debt for sustainability
