Clear audience insights, powered by Tableau.
See how your audiences actually grow.
Cohort helps arts organizations understand who comes back, who gives, and how relationships develop over time — using the data you already have.
-
Most reports show what happened this season.
Cohort helps you see what happens across years.By organizing ticket, subscription, and donation data into cohorts, it reveals how people engage over time — so you can understand retention, loyalty, and long-term value, not just annual totals.
You’ll be able to answer questions like:
• Do first-time attendees return?
• When do donors first give?
• How do subscribers behave differently?
• Where are we losing people year to year?Clear patterns. Fewer spreadsheets. Better decisions.
-
Cohort includes a set of practical dashboards and tools that make your data easier to explore without starting from scratch.
• Cohort retention and return rates
• Audience pathways across ticketing, subscriptions, and giving
• Flexible filtering to compare different groups
• Annual participation summaries
• Revenue and long-term value views
• Clean, organized data fields for your team to use in TableauUpload your data and start exploring. No complicated setup or custom modeling required.

Audience behavior isn’t one story.
People engage in different ways, at different times, for different reasons.
Some first-time attendees return quickly. Others take years.
Some loyal patrons subscribe. Others prefer single tickets.
Some donors give without ever becoming subscribers at all.When everyone is grouped together, those differences disappear — and it becomes hard to see what’s actually driving retention or growth.
Cohort helps you break your audience into real, everyday groups — and see how each one builds a relationship with you over time.
Because better decisions come from seeing patterns clearly, not averaging everyone together.
-
Cohort is built for:
• Marketing teams improving attendance
• Development teams growing donors
• Analysts who want a stronger foundation for reporting and exploration
• Leaders who want clearer visibility into audience behaviorIf you’ve ever wondered
“Are we actually retaining people?”
Cohort helps you see the answer.
Join the Beta Cohort
I’m opening a small group of organizations to try Cohort with their own data.
To join, organizations pay a $500 beta deposit, which includes onboarding and early access to key dashboards.
If you continue with Cohort, this amount is fully credited toward the standard setup fee.
Beta partners receive:
• Full access to the dashboards
• Help getting set up
• Early input on features
• Discounted founding pricing
Spots are limited while the tool is refined.
