Retention

Keeping customers paying over time. The single highest-ROI metric for recurring-revenue businesses - a 5% retention improvement typically generates 25-100% profit lift. AI retention agents proactively flag churn risk (declining usage, support tickets, payment failures), trigger save sequences, and route at-risk accounts to senior CSMs. Net Revenue Retention above 110% is world-class.
