Brief

Userlens is an AI customer success platform aimed at B2B SaaS teams that want earlier churn detection and higher account coverage without expanding headcount. The founders say they built it after running Wudpecker, where they had 25,000 users and more than 1,000 customers but lacked visibility into which accounts were at risk until renewal time. The system aggregates product usage, CRM, billing, and support data to surface account-level warning signs such as reduced logins, role changes by internal champions, and buried complaint threads, then generates recommended talking points and QBR decks based on a company’s own templates and playbooks. The launch post emphasizes operational leverage: Quartr allegedly increased account load from 40 to 200 per CSM and improved net revenue retention by 18% in 3 months, while Smartly reportedly prevented 23 six-figure churn risks in a month. The company also uses a strong commercial guarantee, promising to refund lost ARR if a churn event is missed.

Launch BF: Userlens - AI CSM that never misses churn. (If it does, we pay the lost ARR.)
Hey folks 👋
We’re Ankur Dahama and Hai
Ta - co-founders of
Userlens

TL;DR
Userlens is an AI CSM that monitors every account like your best CSM monitors your top five. It catches churn months
before renewal, builds QBR decks on your playbook, and tells your team exactly what to say.
If it misses a churn event, we pay the lost ARR.
Our story
At our last startup (Wudpecker) we had 25K users, 1,000+ customers, and zero idea who was about to churn. We flew blind.
Accounts died quietly and we only found out at renewal. So we built the tool we wished we had.
Userlens - Your 100x CSM that prevents churn
Userlens watches every account the way your best CSM watches your top five.
A renewal is coming up at one of your accounts? Userlens already knows three users stopped logging in last month, the
champion changed roles, and there's a frustration thread buried in Slack your team never saw.
Before your CSM opens the account, the talking points and QBR deck are ready — built on your team's templates and
playbook.
It does this across your entire book of business. Every account gets the attention your best CSM gives your top five.
Why our customers love us:

Quartr (10M ARR): went from 40 accounts per CSM to 200 — with the same team, all while growing from 1M
to 10M ARR in a year. Their NRR has increased by 18% in 3 months with us.
Smartly (200M ARR): their performance of CSMs in customer meetings and QBRs has gone absolutely vertical. We’ve
predicted (and prevented) 23 6-figure deals in churn risk already in a month!

Connects to your Product analytics (Posthog, Amplitude, Mixpanel, Segment), CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce, Attio),
Billing (stripe), and Support tools (Intercom, Pylon).
Setup takes a day. and we do up to 3 months historic data import during pilots.
We lost accounts at our last startup because nobody told us what was happening until it was too late. Userlens makes
sure that never happens to you.
If our agent fails to predict a churn event in your book of business, we'll refund your lost ARR.
For YC companies — free for 3 months. We'll get you set up in a day.
