The Walkthrough/Operations

Spot Churn Before the Non-Renewal Notice

Watch Rafael take four files from a field-service company's existing systems — service agreements, visit history, AR data, and service notes — and turn them into a ranked list of which agreements are at risk, the specific signals each one is sending, and what's still saveable.

Key takeaway

AI changes when you can act on a churn signal — early, while the customer is still under contract and you still have techs in the building. The non-renewal isn't the problem. Acting too late is the problem.
