A real-world example

Which subscribers will upgrade their plan?

Carriers send 50M+ upgrade offers monthly with 2-3% conversion rates. Each wasted offer costs $0.50-$2.00 in delivery and discounting, totaling $25M-$100M in wasted marketing spend annually. Worse, poorly timed offers train subscribers to wait for discounts. The upgrade signal is in the intersection of usage patterns, network experience, social influence from contacts on higher plans, and historical response behavior.

How KumoRFM solves this

Graph-learned network intelligence across your entire subscriber base

Kumo connects subscribers, plans, usage patterns, offer history, and response data into a graph where upgrade propensity propagates through communication networks. It learns that subscribers at 85%+ data utilization whose top contacts recently upgraded and who browsed the carrier app's plan comparison page convert at 12x the base rate. The model also learns offer fatigue: subscribers shown 3+ declined offers in 90 days respond 60% less to the next one.

Bottom line: A 30M-subscriber carrier that improves upsell targeting from 3% to 8% conversion generates $140M in incremental annual ARPU. Kumo identifies subscribers whose usage patterns, social network influence, and offer response history signal genuine upgrade intent, eliminating wasted offers that train subscribers to wait for discounts.
