ChurnShield

ChurnShield is a web app (with optional lightweight mobile companion) that focuses on one ugly subscription billing problem: involuntary churn from failed payments. It plugs into Stripe, Braintree, and Chargebee, then runs smarter dunning workflows: card updater checks, retry timing optimization, and customer-specific messaging (SMS/email/in-app) based on past payment behavior. It also flags “high-risk” subscriptions (expiring cards, bank debit failures, high dispute probability) and suggests the next best action: offer a payment method swap, temporary grace period, or downgrade instead of cancel. The product is intentionally narrow: recovery and retention for failed payments, not a full billing platform. Merchants get a clear dashboard showing recovered revenue, churn prevented, and which tactics worked. Realistically, you’ll win by being easier to deploy and more transparent than enterprise tools, with measurable lift in recovered MRR within weeks.
