What it does

Identify at-risk customer segments and generate intervention strategies

Best for

SaaS companies with recurring revenue and predictable churn patterns, where early intervention on at-risk segments preserves more revenue than win-back campaigns after churn.

Inputs
  • · Customer segments to score (predefined CRM segments or behavioral cohorts with engagement signals)
  • · Behavioral signals: email engagement trends, purchase frequency/recency, login/usage patterns, support sentiment
  • · CRM data source (Salesforce, HubSpot, or other)
  • · Intervention budget (optional; if provided, prioritizes high-LTV-at-risk segments)
  • · Lookback period (optional; defaults to 90 days)
  • · Custom churn signals (optional; brand-specific indicators that precede churn)
Outputs
  • · Churn risk score per segment (0-100, composite of weighted behavioral signals)
  • · Risk tier classification: low risk, medium risk, high risk, urgent (churn imminent)
  • · Intervention playbook per tier: specific actions, timing windows, channel recommendations, messaging approach
  • · LTV-at-risk quantification per segment (revenue exposure if segment churns)
  • · Intervention budget allocation across segments (by LTV-at-risk and intervention cost)
  • · Monitoring cadence recommendation (monthly review for low-risk, weekly for urgent)
Requires
  • · CRM MCP: Salesforce or HubSpot (pull behavioral data)
  • · churn-predictor.py (scoring algorithm)
  • · intervention-recommender.py (playbook generation)
Preconditions
  • · CRM is connected and has 90+ days of behavioral data
  • · Customer segments are pre-defined in CRM or user specifies cohort criteria
  • · At least 100 customers per segment for reliable scoring
  • · Email engagement, purchase, and usage data are tracked
  • · LTV is calculated (if available, for optimization)
Failure modes
  • · Scoring done on too-recent data (30-day window misses slow-burn churn)
  • · All signals weighted equally (purchase recency should outweigh historical behavior)
  • · Intervention playbook same for all tiers (urgent vs medium risk need different urgency/cadence)
  • · Interventions executed without segmentation (mass re-engagement email to everyone performs worse)
  • · No measurement of intervention success (can't tell if playbook works)
Trust signals
  • · Composite risk score using weighted signals: purchase recency (highest weight), engagement trend direction, support sentiment, usage pattern breaks
  • · Risk tier framework with named tiers: low, medium, high, urgent
  • · Intervention playbook per tier with specific actions (retention offer vs win-back differs)
  • · LTV-at-risk quantification (which segments matter most by revenue exposure)
