North Star Metric Card is one hero card for the single number an org steers by: weekly active workspaces at 1,284, +2.6% vs last week, a 12 point inline SVG sparkline spanning Mar 23 to Jun 8, and a versioned definition printed in the card, v3 since Apr 6, 2026. The definition reads: a workspace counts as active after 3 meaningful events in a rolling 7 days; meaningful events are document edits, API calls, and member invites; page views do not count.
The sparkline is decorative by design, a fixed 12 point polyline at stroke-foreground/40. The definition block is the unusual part; north star metrics drift when the definition lives only in a slide deck.
Reach for this block at the top of an executive or all hands dashboard, wired to your weekly active workspaces query and surfacing the current definition version from your metrics registry.
A natural flow around it on an Application Pro page:

Tip: printing the definition version and date inside the card is what makes the metric auditable when someone asks why the number changed last quarter.
