Let's dive into the challenges that inspired this new feature and how each metric aims to solve those challenges.

The Challenges:

Affiliates Feeling Shadowed

Many affiliates have a robust performance graph but lack the means to represent it lucidly. The result? Missed opportunities and undervaluation.

Brands Amidst a Data Storm

Brands often faced the ordeal of navigating through heaps of unstructured data, making strategic partnership-building cumbersome.

Unpacking the Key Metrics:

Number of Leads
