The problem it solves

You know some customers are quietly slipping away, but by the time you notice a cancellation, it's too late to fix it. Manually reviewing every account for warning signs isn't realistic once you have more than a handful of customers.

Who it fits

SaaS and subscription businesses that want to catch at-risk customers before they cancel.

How it works

  1. Every day, customer health is scored across several usage and billing signals
  2. AI classifies each customer's churn risk
  3. At-risk customers receive a personalized retention email
  4. Critical cases are routed to your team in Slack for immediate follow-up
What you get

At-risk customers flagged before they cancel

You get a daily churn risk score for every customer, with personalized retention emails sent automatically and critical cases flagged to your team.

What you get

A daily churn risk list, automatic retention emails, and Slack alerts for urgent accounts.

What you need

A Stripe account, a Slack workspace, a Gmail account, a Google Sheets account, and an OpenAI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
