KPIs explained
Formulas, missing denominators and export limits. Why personal analysis uses no unsupported success benchmarks.
A metric needs a valid denominator
CupidLeaks describes the available export; it does not score attractiveness. Missing impressions, incomplete likes and uncertain message authorship remain limitations even when a percentage looks precise.
Hinge itself notes that not all data is accessible and that other members’ personal information may be excluded for privacy. The provider’s current export instructions are linked below. 8
| Metric | Definition | Analyzer limitation |
|---|---|---|
| Like-to-match rate / SMR | Matches from your likes ÷ all your likes | Currently not derivable; complete like denominator unavailable |
| MRR, you opened | Answered own openers ÷ own openers | Requires explicit authorship |
| MRR, other person opened | Answered incoming openers ÷ incoming openers | Describes your response side, not like success |
| Conversation length | Exported messages per thread | Does not measure quality |
| “We met” | Exported meeting markers | Not a complete date count |
| Ghosting estimate | Threads waiting over 14 days ÷ threads with messages | Depends on export reference date and authorship |
| Visibility / dwell time | Impressions and time spent viewing a profile | Not derivable without those events |
No unsupported comparison bands
The former gender-specific “bad/average/top” bands have been removed. They mixed simulation assumptions, like success and message responses. An absolute meeting count without an observation period is not a conversion rate either.
A valid reference would document platform, period, region, recruitment, export format and uncertainty. Until a suitable comparison sample exists, the analyzer displays personal metrics without such rankings.
Funnels and simulation
Overview counts do not necessarily form one nested cohort: incoming matches can appear alongside sent likes. Do not automatically treat every step as a conversion from the previous one.
Matching abbreviations in the simulator do not guarantee equivalent measurements. Simulation values come from programmed counters and probabilities; its methodology explains those differences.
