# Formulas - derived metrics

Today, we're introducing formulas to derive metrics based on your existing data. Formulas works *just* like other metrics on Invert, but are calculated on the fly using custom defined formulas.

**Use formulas** to plot derived metrics on charts, as bars or lines, or export them to Excel, JMP, etc. – just like every other metric.

**Build new formulas** by reference to other metrics, timerseries or single data points, and using basic arithmetic operators – or more complicated math and aggregations.
