I Studied 2,108 Dashboards To See What Sticks
I've studied 2,108 dashboards across 536 apps & websites to figure out why some feel instantly clear, while others feel overwhelming the moment you land.
Not the usual advice about spacing, grids, or visual polish.
I wanted to look past the usual UI best practices, and learn deeper patterns behind dashboards that actually stick.
Across SaaS, finance, health & fitness, and AI products, the best dashboards seemed to share the same patterns.
