## Key benefits

Generic dashboard metrics rarely match what your team has promised to improve.

You can now create KPIs in Settings. Describe the measure to the AI assistant, or set it up with filters, a schedule and a group-by field. Each KPI keeps its history, feeds dashboard widgets and opens on a details page with the accounts it matched, including MFA coverage, password hygiene, stale accounts and privileged exposure.

## How it works

1. **1. Define the KPI** Describe it to the AI assistant or set it up yourself.
2. **2. Set a schedule** The KPI recalculates and keeps its history.
3. **3. See the accounts behind it** Open the KPI details for a risk breakdown of the matched accounts.

## Getting started

KPI definitions are in Hydden settings for all customers.

**Need configuration detail?** Technical documentation is available to customers after sign-in.
