Real cancel feedback we graded

No fake testimonials. Here is what real users wrote about real SaaS we graded this week. Source attribution preserved.

“Notion's USP was always simplicity. The attitude changed at some point from aggressive simplicity to feature bloat and now AI slop.”
Hacker News user lowsongNotion graded D (44/100)
“Linear is amazing for 10 engineers, brutal for 80 because it's per seat. We spend more on Linear than on our error tracking and observability stack combined.”

Without RetentionCheck

What you're doing today instead

  • Reading the cancel form in a spreadsheet: guessing the top driver from 60 free-text responses. The reason in the box is rarely the actual reason.
  • Hiring a $120K retention manager: waiting 3 months for a hire and hoping she finds the right cluster.
  • Asking ChatGPT: improvising a score with no rubric, no reproducibility, no sample-size weighting.
  • Doing nothing: losing the same revenue every month to a driver you cannot name.

Frequently asked

Questions

What kind of feedback can I paste?
Anything: cancellation emails, exit survey responses, support ticket excerpts, NPS comments, CSV exports. Plain text or structured data. We handle any format.
How is this different from ChatGPT?
RetentionCheck gives you structured output: severity rankings, confidence scores, specific recommendations, and an executive summary. Plus it saves your analysis history and tracks churn trends over time. It's a purpose-built tool, not a generic chatbot.
Is my data safe?
Your feedback text is sent to Claude for analysis and is not stored after the session. Analysis results are saved to your account if you're signed in. We never share your data with third parties.
How many responses can I analyze?
Free accounts can analyze up to 500 feedback items per analysis (3 analyses per month). Pro accounts handle up to 5,000 items with unlimited analyses.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. The free tier gives you 3 analyses per month with no signup required on the demo, and no credit card needed to create an account.
Can I share my Churn Health Score with my team or on Twitter?
Yes. Every analysis gets a public share link and a branded OG card, so you can drop it in Slack, email your cofounder, or post your Churn Health Grade with one click.
