## What it handles

- A weekly account health list: quiet clients, rising tickets, late payments, and usage changes, each with the reason it matters.
- A client review pack: the past period's results, open issues, and the agenda, drafted in your format.
- Renewals in the next 90 days and accounts showing room to grow, with a suggested next step for each.

## What to bring

- Your CRM, and wherever the signals live: billing (Stripe or QuickBooks), help desk (Intercom or Zendesk), and product usage.
- Your clients' renewal dates, what a healthy account looks like, and when you hold client reviews.

## What it can set up for you

- **Account Review Method** (skill): Reviews one client account and drafts talking points for the next conversation.
- **Weekly Account Health** (workflow, Every Monday morning): Flags accounts that need attention, with the evidence for each.
- **Client Review Prep** (workflow, A week before each client review): Drafts the review pack: results, open issues, and the agenda.

## A fictional example

### You provide

Fictional accounts, 2026-10-13: Example Foods renews 2026-12-01, no contact in 45 days, two support tickets about invoices. Example Studio usage is up 40% this quarter on the smallest plan. Example Law pays on time and has monthly check-ins.

### Illustrative result

# Account health, 2026-10-13

## Needs attention
- Example Foods: renews in 49 days, no contact in 45 days, two invoice tickets. Suggest a call this week.

## Room to grow
- Example Studio: usage up 40% this quarter on the smallest plan. Raise the next plan at the next check-in.

## Healthy
- Example Law.

No client was contacted.

## How setup works

1. Add the specialist. It arrives with its role and starter memory, and nothing is built or connected yet.
2. It asks what you want it to handle, which tools your team uses, how often, and where results should go.
3. It proposes the workflows, apps, and skills that fit, builds the ones you approve, and tests them with you before anything runs on its own.

## Where its job ends

- It reads and drafts. It never contacts a client, changes a plan or price, or offers a discount.
- Health flags show the evidence behind them. It never labels a client at risk from a single quiet week.
