How This System Works
Architecture
CloudMetrics is a customer intelligence platform built around three core AI agents that work together to provide comprehensive customer lifecycle management. The system follows a data-driven architecture where the Health Score Engine acts as the foundational layer, calculating daily customer health metrics from product usage and billing data. The Churn Predictor then consumes these health scores alongside usage patterns to identify at-risk accounts weekly, while the Onboarding Orchestrator operates reactively to guide new users through personalized engagement sequences. The platform integrates deeply with HubSpot as the central CRM, pulling customer data and pushing insights back for sales and success team action. Stripe provides billing context and revenue metrics, while Intercom serves as both a data source for customer communication patterns and an output channel for automated messaging. Each agent is containerized and deployed independently, allowing for granular scaling and maintenance while sharing common data models and API interfaces.
Data Flow
Data flows through CloudMetrics in a hub-and-spoke model with HubSpot as the central repository. Each morning at 6am, the Health Score Engine pulls fresh customer data from HubSpot (usage metrics, contact properties) and Stripe (billing status, MRR changes) to calculate updated health scores. These scores are immediately pushed back to HubSpot as custom properties and cached in the local database for rapid access by other agents. Weekly on Monday mornings, the Churn Predictor accesses the latest health scores and performs deeper analysis by pulling additional usage pattern data from HubSpot and communication history from Intercom. Its predictions and risk flags are written back to HubSpot and trigger automated Intercom messages to customer success teams. Meanwhile, the Onboarding Orchestrator listens continuously for new user signup webhooks from HubSpot, immediately analyzing the user's profile and behavioral data to determine the appropriate onboarding sequence, then executing personalized outreach through Intercom campaigns.
Implementation Phases
Establish core data pipelines and implement the Health Score Engine with basic HubSpot and Stripe integrations
Build and deploy the Churn Predictor with full data access and automated alerting capabilities
Implement reactive onboarding workflows with Intercom integration and user behavior tracking
Prerequisites
- -HubSpot Professional+ account with API access and custom properties enabled
- -Stripe account with read access to customer and subscription data
- -Intercom account with conversation API access and automation capabilities
- -Docker-compatible hosting environment with cron scheduling
- -Database instance for caching health scores and intermediate calculations
- -OAuth application setup for HubSpot and Intercom integrations
Assumptions
- -Customer usage data is available in HubSpot custom properties or can be imported
- -Churn definition is based on subscription cancellation within 30-90 days
- -Health scores should be calculated daily but can tolerate occasional failures
- -Customer success team wants proactive notifications for at-risk accounts
- -New user signups trigger immediate HubSpot webhooks or can be polled frequently
