Substack export → dashboard

Your post stats, on one timeline.

Substack shows you one post at a time. Export the post-stats CSV, drop it here, and every post lines up on a trend — sends, opens, clicks and new subscribers — with type and post as clickable breakdowns, all in your browser.

01 · How it works

Export, drop, done.

Each row is one post — sends, opens, clicks and the subs it earned. One drop stacks them on a timeline so the arc of your newsletter, not just the latest issue, is finally visible.

i. export

Export post stats

In Substack: Dashboard → Stats → export the post-level stats CSV (one row per post).

ii. detect

Rates & counts recognized

Sends, Opens and Clicks read as counts, Open Rate and Click Rate as percentages; Date drives the trend and Type/Post become breakdowns.

iii. read

Reach, engagement, growth

Opens and clicks over time, open and click rate per post, and which posts drove new free and paid subscribers.

02 · The views

Every issue, side by side.

The view Substack hides one screen at a time: your whole post history on one chart.

  • 01

    Engagement trend

    Opens and clicks plotted over every post show whether your audience is warming up or drifting.

  • 02

    Open & click rate

    Rate columns trend per post, so a low-reach issue that converted hard stops looking like a flop.

  • 03

    What grows the list

    New free and paid subscribers per post reveal which topics actually convert readers into subs.

  • 04

    Local & private

    Your stats are parsed in the browser — your post performance never goes to another third party.

"Lined up a year of posts and saw the pattern: deep-dives drove paid subs, news roundups drove opens."

Substack dashboard questions.

Which Substack export works?
The post-level stats CSV (Dashboard → Stats → export). Any file with a Date, Sends/Opens/Clicks and a Post column builds the full dashboard.
Post stats give the richest numeric metrics — sends, opens, clicks and subs per issue. The subscriber export works too if you want list-growth cuts instead.
They're detected as percentages and trended per post, plotted alongside the raw open and click counts.
No — everything is parsed locally in your browser. Post stats contain no individual subscriber rows anyway.
Yes — the Type column splits them; click a type to see only those posts, with every chart recomputed for that segment.
