## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability micro-saas-subscription-churn-recovery-playbook-47e78883
```

Example prompt: Give me the full churn recovery playbook for failed payments — I need the root-cause analysis, benchmark recovery rates, engineering checklist, and ready-to-send dunning email templates.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need an immediately actionable, opinionated churn recovery plan for a specific driver in a micro-SaaS or subscription business — especially when you want benchmark data plus implementation steps plus copy templates in a single call rather than assembling them from generic sources.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid churn_driver query parameter returns an error (valid values: failed_payments, onboarding_drop, low_usage, price_objection)
- Payment failure (402) if x402 USDC payment is not provided or insufficient
- Service unavailable if the fly.dev host is unreachable
- Stale benchmark data if the as_of timestamp is outdated

## How this service works

Actionable micro-SaaS and subscription retention & dunning playbook. Pass ?churn_driver=failed_payments|onboarding_drop|low_usage|price_objection (default failed_payments). Returns root-cause analysis, benchmark recovery rates, step-by-step engineering/UX implementation checklist, and ready-to-use email/modal copy templates.

## Output

A structured JSON object containing: the churn driver type, a root-cause summary explaining why this type of churn happens, a target recovery or lift benchmark (e.g. expected recovery rate), an ordered implementation_steps array with engineering and UX tasks, and an email_or_ux_copy_templates array of step-labeled ready-to-use message templates.
