### [Application Metrics caught my broken size estimator](https://yomu.fyi/post/application-metrics-caught-my-broken-size-estimator.md)

Cliparr’s video size estimator was intended to predict output size from target bitrate multiplied by clip duration, but real-world results could vary because its VBR encoder changes bitrate with content. Rather than manually testing a matrix of formats, codecs, and quality settings, the author extracted the browser-based export engine into Cliparr Convert, a standalone static converter, and instrumented it with anonymous Sentry Application Metrics. Completed conversions record actual and estimated bytes, their ratio and delta, plus attributes such as output format, quality, and estimator basis; counters also track conversion completion and the progressive web app installation funnel. The resulting dashboard exposed an estimate that was off by 83% and supports grouping real usage by conversion conditions, while sending only numeric metrics and not media, filenames, or URLs.
