Where updates land.

The results of your updates.

Your AI directs changes to specific areas in Churnkey.

SINGLE

Individual updates

The AI targets one specific user. It replaces outdated email or billing info to fix a single failed payment.

GROUP

Bulk updates

The AI applies new contact details to a whole segment of customers at once. This handles large-scale billing issues quickly.

REVENUE

Recovered funds

Successful updates lead to retried payments. You see the results in your Churnkey dashboard as failed subscriptions turn active.
