Your best clients and at-risk clients look the same in CRM.

Which accounts are at risk? Which are ready for upsell? CRM notes are stale. The real signals are in usage trends, payment patterns, and billing anomalies. askotter combines these into a per-account health score so brokers know where to focus every week.

Why CRM data is not enough

CRM shows last contact date and deal stage. It does not show that Client #412's usage dropped 30% over 14 days, suggesting a possible facility closure. It does not show that Client #204 is 28 days overdue on payment while usage remains active, matching a pre-churn pattern. The behavioral signals that predict churn live in billing and usage data, not CRM notes.

The cost of reactive client management

By the time a client cancels, the decision was made weeks ago. A usage decline plus payment delay plus no recent contact is a pattern that predicts churn 18+ days before the cancellation email. But if nobody connects those signals, every churn feels like a surprise. Reactive brokerages lose clients they could have saved.

How askotter scores client health

askotter combines usage trends, payment history, contract terms, and CRM activity into a per-account health score. High-risk patterns are flagged automatically: usage decline + payment delay + no recent contact = churn risk. Growth signals like usage increases are flagged as expansion opportunities. Brokers get a weekly priority list: which accounts need outreach, which need renegotiation, and which are healthy.

/// metrics that matter

KPIs this pain point directly impacts.

Understanding these metrics helps you measure the problem and track improvement. Each links to our full glossary definition with formulas, benchmarks, and role-specific context.

CHS
Customer Health Score
Customer Health Score is a composite metric that combines multiple behavioral, engagement, and relationship signals to produce a single score indicating how likely a customer account is to renew, expand, or churn. It synthesizes product usage data, support sentiment, NPS, executive engagement, and contract signals into an early warning system for customer success teams. High health scores correlate with expansion revenue; low scores predict churn risk.
CHURN-RATE
Churn Rate
Churn Rate measures the percentage of customers or revenue lost in a given period due to cancellations, non-renewals, or downgrades. Customer churn rate tracks the number of customers lost; revenue churn (gross revenue retention) tracks the MRR lost. Churn is the primary drain on recurring revenue growth and one of the most critical metrics for SaaS sustainability.
NRR
Net Revenue Retention
Net Revenue Retention (NRR) measures the percentage of recurring revenue retained from existing customers over a period, including expansion revenue from upsells and cross-sells, minus contraction and churn. An NRR above 100% means the existing customer base is growing in revenue even without new customer acquisition. It is one of the strongest indicators of product-market fit and the health of a SaaS business.
RETENTION-RATE
Retention Rate
Retention Rate measures the percentage of users or customers who continue to use a product or service in a given period after their initial acquisition. User retention (product analytics context) measures whether acquired users are still active in subsequent weeks or months. Customer retention (revenue context) is closely related to GRR and churn rate. High retention is the foundation of sustainable growth.
