Driver metrics are the [[KPI|KPIs]] associated with individual products or features that ladder up to the organization's [[north star metric]]. They "drive" the desired result for each product. Driver metrics should be near term so they are actionable and can be used in experiments. Driver metrics can also be thought of as the near term proxy for the [[north star metric]]. Driver metrics are used in experiments to test changes or new features. Experiments typically run around two weeks, which means the driver metric must be sensitive at this temporal scale.
