A real-world example

Among dormant users, which will reactivate if we send a personalized offer?

Sending reactivation offers to all dormant users is wasteful — most would never return regardless, and some would return without an offer. What you need is the incremental lift: users who will reactivate because of the offer and would not have otherwise. For a platform with 3M dormant users, targeting only the persuadable segment saves $4M in offer costs while doubling reactivation rates.

How KumoRFM solves this

Relational intelligence for customer retention

Kumo's ASSUMING clause enables counterfactual prediction — comparing the probability of reactivation with and without a personalized offer. The difference is the true uplift. By learning from the relational graph of past offer responses, user behavior patterns, and social connections, Kumo identifies the persuadable segment that traditional A/B testing takes months to find.
