Resume

What this agent does

The Lifecycle Campaign Manager AI orchestrates the entire borrower relationship from disbursement through renewal — monitoring 25 real-time borrower events, firing precisely timed campaigns across email, SMS and WhatsApp, predicting churn 60 days in advance with a scoring model tuned to LendingIQ's portfolio, and managing distinct journey paths for MSME, retail, gold loan, and co-lending segments. It replaces the CRM manager and lifecycle marketing team with a continuous intelligence layer that ensures no borrower milestone, retention opportunity, or renewal moment passes without the right communication.

Primary functions

Trigger-Based Journey Orchestration

Continuous — 25 event types monitored

Invoked when: any of the 25 monitored borrower events fires in the LOS or CRM

  • Monitors the LOS and CRM event stream for the 25 borrower events that signal a lifecycle moment requiring a campaign response: disbursement (welcome journey), first EMI completion (activation confirmation), third EMI (early loyalty acknowledgment), sixth EMI (top-up eligibility milestone), twelfth EMI (annual relationship review and offer), EMI bounce (immediate soft-touch retention message), DPD entry (collections handoff coordination with Early Bucket Caller AI), restructuring agreement (empathy and support sequence), loan closure (renewal and next-product journey), and referral submission (reward confirmation and encouragement). Each event fires a pre-approved journey template in under 15 minutes.
  • Manages journey state per borrower — each borrower is enrolled in at most one active journey at any time. When a new event fires for a borrower already in a journey, the agent evaluates whether the new event should interrupt the current journey (an EMI bounce interrupts a promotional journey immediately), continue the existing journey (a repayment milestone during a welcome sequence adds a milestone step without restarting), or queue the new journey for post-current-journey enrolment. Journey collision logic prevents borrowers from receiving contradictory communications simultaneously — a borrower in a retention journey does not also receive a promotional campaign.
  • Personalises journey content at the message level: the borrower's first name, the specific loan product they hold, the EMI amount and due date where relevant, and the tenure remaining. Personalisation is drawn from the CRM and LOS at message dispatch time rather than at journey design time — this ensures that amounts and dates in messages are always current even if the journey was designed weeks earlier. Stale data in campaign messages is a significant trust and compliance risk; the agent re-queries live data at dispatch, not at enrolment.
Output: Campaign dispatches per trigger event — personalised, channel-appropriate, consent-validated. Journey state log per borrower — current journey, step, and next scheduled action. Journey collision resolution log for events that modify active journey states.

Churn Prediction

Daily scoring run across active portfolio

Invoked when: daily churn scoring cycle runs — all borrowers within 90 days of loan closure or with identified churn signals are scored

  • Scores each active borrower on churn probability using a composite of behavioural signals: declining app login frequency, reduced WhatsApp message response rates, EMI payment timing drift (paying later in the cycle each month without bouncing — a leading indicator of financial stress), absence of engagement with prior campaign communications, and proximity to loan closure without a renewal inquiry. Churn prediction 60 days out gives the retention journey enough time to intervene before the borrower has already decided to go elsewhere for their next loan.
  • Classifies borrowers by churn risk tier — High (churn probability above 70%, immediate retention journey enrolment), Medium (probability 40–70%, softer engagement sequence with relationship value messaging), and Low (probability below 40%, standard lifecycle journey continues without modification). High-tier borrowers receive a personalised outreach from the relationship manager within 24 hours in addition to the automated campaign sequence, because high-value borrowers at churn risk warrant human contact, not just digital automation.
  • Tracks churn prediction accuracy at the cohort level — the percentage of High-risk borrowers who actually lapsed in the subsequent 60 days, compared to the Low-risk baseline. Where prediction accuracy falls below 65% for a cohort, the churn model inputs for that segment are flagged for review by the Customer Insights Agent AI and the marketing head. A churn model that cannot predict accurately is worse than no model, because it misdirects retention spend onto the wrong borrowers.
Output: Daily churn risk scores per active borrower — tier classification (High / Medium / Low) with contributing signal breakdown. Retention journey enrolment for High-risk borrowers. Human outreach alert for high-value High-risk accounts. Churn model accuracy tracking report — monthly cohort analysis.

Segment Journey Management

Per product segment — MSME, retail, gold loan, co-lending

Invoked when: a borrower is onboarded to a product segment, or when the marketing head updates a segment journey template

  • Maintains separate journey libraries for each product segment: MSME borrowers receive journeys calibrated to business seasonality (GST filing periods, working capital cycles, festive production runs) rather than the personal finance calendar; retail personal loan borrowers receive journeys anchored to individual repayment milestones and personal financial planning moments; gold loan borrowers receive shorter, higher-frequency journeys reflecting the typically shorter tenure and different renewal dynamic of secured gold products; co-lending portfolio borrowers receive journeys that reflect the bank-NBFC co-lending context, with messaging that aligns to the co-lender's brand standards where required.
  • Updates segment journeys when the product or credit policy changes: if the gold loan LTV limit changes, all pending gold loan renewal journeys that reference LTV are updated to reflect the current parameter before dispatch. Journey templates that contain product-specific parameters are linked to the policy engine so that stale parameters in active journeys are caught and corrected automatically when the underlying policy changes — rather than discovered after incorrect information has been sent to borrowers.
  • Reports segment journey performance monthly: open rates, click rates, journey completion rates, and the conversion outcomes attributable to lifecycle campaigns (top-up acceptances, renewal applications, referral submissions). Attribution is based on a 14-day attribution window from campaign exposure to conversion event — conversions that occur outside the window are not attributed to the campaign, even if temporally proximate. This conservative attribution approach ensures that campaign ROI reporting reflects genuine campaign-driven conversions rather than coincidental repayment cycle activity.
Output: Segment journey libraries maintained and updated — MSME, retail, gold loan, co-lending. Monthly segment campaign performance report — open, click, completion, and conversion metrics with conservative 14-day attribution. Policy parameter refresh alerts when active journey templates reference updated policy inputs.

Knowledge base

CRM — Borrower Lifecycle History

Full interaction history, campaign response records, journey state, and engagement metrics per borrower. The primary source for personalisation, churn signal detection, and journey state management.

LOS — Loan Status and Event Feed

Real-time loan status events — disbursement, EMI, DPD, restructuring, closure — the trigger inputs for the 25 event-based journey automations. SLA: event-to-campaign-dispatch under 15 minutes.

Early Warning Agent AI — Stress Signals

Borrower stress flags that modify journey behaviour: stressed borrowers exit promotional journeys and enter support-oriented retention sequences. EWS signals override campaign scheduling immediately.

Journey Template Library

Pre-approved campaign sequences per trigger event and product segment. All templates reviewed by the marketing head before activation. Templates containing product references linked to the policy engine for live parameter updates.

Customer Insights Agent AI — NPS / CSAT Feedback

Borrower satisfaction signals used to adjust journey tone and frequency for segments where satisfaction scores are falling. A declining NPS in a segment triggers journey review, not just campaign optimisation.

Pre-Training — CRM and Lifecycle Marketing Knowledge

Lifecycle marketing principles, CRM campaign design, churn prediction methodology, and borrower engagement best practices for financial services up to knowledge cutoff.

Hard guardrails

Will notDispatch campaigns to borrowers who have unsubscribed or whose consent does not cover the campaign channel. TRAI DND compliance and DPDP consent records are validated before every dispatch. An unsubscribe event immediately suppresses the borrower from all non-essential campaign journeys — the suppression takes effect within one hour of the unsubscribe event, not at the next cycle run.
Will notSend promotional or upsell campaigns to borrowers who are in active collections (DPD 1+), under restructuring, or flagged by the Early Warning Agent AI as stressed. These borrowers receive only support-oriented, compliance-required communications — not commercial campaigns. Sending a top-up offer to a borrower struggling to repay their existing loan is a reputational and regulatory risk.
Will notCreate new campaign journey templates without marketing head approval. The agent executes pre-approved journey libraries; it does not write new campaign sequences autonomously. Journey design involves brand, legal, and compliance considerations that require human review before any new template is activated in production.
Will notAttribute campaign conversions beyond the 14-day attribution window. Extending the attribution window would inflate campaign ROI figures and misallocate marketing budget toward campaigns that are not genuinely driving the conversions being claimed. Attribution discipline is a prerequisite for accurate campaign investment decisions.

Known limitations

The churn prediction model is trained on LendingIQ's historical lapse data — which means it performs well for the borrower segments and product types that have sufficient historical volume, and less reliably for newer products or segments with limited lapse history. A new gold loan product with six months of portfolio history will have a poorly calibrated churn model compared to a personal loan product with three years of data.Tag predictions from thin-data segments with a model confidence indicator, and treat Low-confidence churn scores as inputs for human review rather than as direct triggers for automated retention journeys. Build a structured data collection plan for new product segments from the outset, so that churn models can be calibrated as soon as statistically sufficient data exists.
Journey personalisation is bounded by the data quality in the CRM. Where CRM records are incomplete — missing phone numbers, incorrect email addresses, or outdated contact details — the personalised journey cannot reach the borrower through the intended channel. Incomplete CRM data is a common problem in organisations that onboard borrowers through field agents who have variable data capture discipline.Implement a CRM data completeness score per borrower at onboarding, and trigger a data enrichment nudge within the first 7 days of the welcome journey. Borrowers who complete their contact details receive a small loyalty acknowledgment — this improves data completeness rates and gives the lifecycle journey a higher-quality contact base to work with.
The 15-minute event-to-dispatch SLA assumes that the LOS event feed is functioning and that the campaign gateway has capacity. During peak origination periods or system maintenance windows, event processing may be delayed, causing journey triggers to fire later than intended. A welcome journey that fires 4 hours after disbursement rather than 15 minutes is still useful; a time-sensitive retention campaign that fires 12 hours late is materially less effective.Implement SLA monitoring on the event-to-dispatch pipeline with an alert threshold at 30 minutes. For time-sensitive triggers (EMI bounce, DPD entry), priority queue the dispatch so that these events are processed ahead of lower-urgency milestone messages during congestion periods.
