An AI-powered retention playbook that flags risk in chat, offers fixes, and loops humans in when it matters.

Churn rarely starts at cancellation—it starts with friction: confusion, stalled onboarding, or unused features. A B2B SaaS used AIthor to catch those signals early. The chatbot recognized “churny” intents (“too expensive,” “not seeing value,” “how do I cancel?”) and responded with targeted paths: quick wins (1–2 step setup guides), feature training, or a right-sized plan suggestion. When high-value accounts showed risk, AIthor routed the conversation to Customer Success with sentiment, usage, and intent tags. The result: 31% fewer voluntary churn events among engaged accounts, a 3-point NPS lift in the at-risk segment, and clearer renewal conversations backed by context. Instead of firefighting at the end of term, the team built momentum weeks earlier.
