Retention + discovery loop

300+ discovery interviews defined the ICP; per-session usage in Firestore plus automated win-back surveys turned a hardware + app product into 85% two-month retention.

Problem

Behavior-change products die on retention. We needed to know why people stopped, and we needed to know fast enough to fix it.

Architecture
  1. 01

    Discover

    300+ face-to-face interviews isolated weak physical enforcement and poor retention as the gaps competitors missed.

  2. 02

    Instrument

    Per-session usage logged to Firestore.

  3. 03

    Detect + ask

    Python scripts flagged users inactive 7+ days and automatically surveyed them.

  4. 04

    Test

    Fixes shipped to a 50-user subset first, then rolled out.

Design decisions
  • →Ask churned users why, automatically, at the moment they churn, not in a quarterly survey.
Results

200-user campus pilot, 300+ units sold ($9K+ revenue), 85% two-month and 70% six-month retention; pitched 5 VCs and won $7K across two startup competitions.
