What it is

The short version.

Retention is where app profitability is won or lost. We optimize the first session, the paywall, and the lifecycle messaging that follows, so the users acquisition brings in actually convert, stay, and renew, lifting LTV across every channel at once.

What's included

Done for you.

Onboarding

First-session flows that get users to value fast, the single biggest driver of D1 and D7 retention.

Paywall Optimization

Pricing, packaging, and placement tests that lift trial-to-paid without raising acquisition spend.

Lifecycle Messaging

Push and email sequences timed to real behavior to drive activation, resurrection, and renewal.

FAQ

User Retention, answered.

Where do retention gains come from first?

Usually onboarding and the paywall. Getting users to the 'aha' moment faster and matching the paywall to intent are the two highest-leverage moves, and they compound the value of everything acquisition brings in.

Do you work on the product or just messaging?

Both. We optimize lifecycle messaging and the in-product moments (onboarding, activation, paywall) that actually drive whether users stay.

How do you measure retention success?

By cohort retention, trial-to-paid, and lifetime value, not vanity engagement. The goal is users who stay and pay.
