Win-back / Dormant Customer Agent
Reconnect with customers who have gone quiet, within consent rules
Reconnect with customers who have gone quiet, within consent rules. Win-back / Dormant Customer Agent works for your customer success team under a named human owner, with its cost and results shown in the Investment & ROI Ledger.
What it does
Mission: Reconnect with customers who have gone quiet, within consent rules.
Win-back / Dormant Customer Agent works for your customer success team. Typical work: dormant customer detection, win-back message drafts, frequency and opt-out checks. It works inside CRM & Sales — CRM, Marketing — Marketing Automation, Platform — WhatsApp channel.
It is one of One3's first 20 rentable agents (Customer Retention squad).
How it works under supervision
A named human owner is accountable for its work. Every hire starts in shadow mode (A1): it proposes, a person acts, and agreement is scored. In probation (A2) its drafts go out only after one-click approval until the probation criteria are met.
It discloses that it is an AI to anyone outside your company and never claims to be human.
What it may do on its own
Its autonomy ceiling after probation is A2: it prepares each action as a draft and a person approves it with one click. Nothing it prepares takes effect without a person.
What needs approval
Its risk ceiling is R3. Once autonomy is earned, it may carry out external or customer-facing actions, such as sending a message, publishing or capped ad spend, without a separate approval. R4 Actions (payments, deletion, signing, payroll) always need a person.
Customer-facing sends are R3 and need approval until the skill has earned autonomy.
Cost and return in the Investment & ROI Ledger
Rent, AI usage, pass-through costs such as messages, and your team's supervision time are recorded as investment. Results are tracked against its KPIs (reactivated customers (measured with a holdout group)) and your previous process, shown as observed or assisted unless a reviewed experiment shows incremental return. Nothing is guaranteed.
