What analytics does Benecaster provide?

The core plugin includes a subscriber count stat card, a 90-day growth sparkline, and a tier breakdown panel — active count, new subscribers, and churned per tier for the last 30 days — in the admin dashboard from day one.

The Analytics Dashboard add-on adds: subscriber growth over time (by tier, with date-range controls and prior-period comparison), tier movement tracking (upgrades, downgrades), episode download counts (requires the download proxy to be enabled), downloads by episode and date range, podcast app breakdown, feed engagement per tier, cohort analysis, and CSV export of any panel.

Because Benecaster collects analytics data from the moment it’s installed — not from when you purchase the add-on — buying the Analytics Dashboard six months in gives you six months of charts immediately. There’s no retroactive gap.
