📊 Experiment Histograms

Permalink ›
Generally, experimentalists make decisions by comparing means and using standard deviation to assess spread. There's exceptions, like using percentile metrics, but the vast majority of comparisons are done in this way.
It's effective, but it's also well known that means mask a lot of information. To help experimentalists on Statsig understand what's going on behind the scenes, we're adding an easy interface to dig into the distributions behind results.
Here, we can see a pulse result showing a statistically significant lift in revenue for both of our experimental variants.
By opening the histogram view (found in the statistics details), we can easily see that this lift is mostly driven by more users moving from the lowest-spend bucket into higher buckets
This is available today on Warehouse Native - and we're scoping out Statsig Cloud.
Loved by customers at every stage of growth
See what our users have to say about building with Statsig
"At OpenAI, we want to iterate as fast as possible. Statsig enables us to grow, scale, and learn efficiently. Integrating experimentation with product analytics and feature flagging has been crucial for quickly understanding and addressing our users' top priorities."
Dave Cummings
Engineering Manager, ChatGPT
"We evaluated Optimizely, LaunchDarkly, Split, and Eppo, but ultimately selected Statsig due to its comprehensive end-to-end integration. We wanted a complete solution rather than a partial one, including everything from the stats engine to data ingestion."
Don Browning
SVP, Data & Platform Engineering
"Statsig has been a game changer for how we combine product development and A/B testing. It's made it a breeze to implement experiments with complex targeting logic and feel confident that we're getting back trusted results. It's the first commercially available A/B testing tool that feels like it was built by people who really get product experimentation."
