Cohort heatmap
PowerA staircase grid of four to twelve cohorts by four to twelve periods since start, each cell the rounded share of the cohort's starting members still retained, shaded over the observed range, with a scale naming the lowest and highest observed shares. Shares derive from supplied starting and retained counts, shown beside the rows with an optional count-weighted average row, or are supplied percentages without counts. Periods a cohort has not reached stay blank.

When to use it
Suits retention and repeat behaviour of groups that started together: customers by signup month, employees by hiring class, buyers by first-order week, students by intake year, app users by install week. Takes whole-number starting and retained counts, or reported retention percentages when counts are not known. Not for revenue retention above 100%, unrelated metrics in one grid, or values that are not shares of the starting members; use the general heatmap for those.
