Done-for-you offer · Fractional CMO with AI Swarm · behavioral cohort computation
Done-for-you behavioral cohort computation for DTC, multi-location franchise, multi-unit service brand, multi-location retail, multi- channel retail, and PE-sponsored portfolio operators — a 5- skill Signal-Capture + Cohort-Computation + Membership-Resolution + Cross-Skill-Emission + Attestation bundle on the customer-graph agent across 25 behavior signals + 13 clustering methods + 6 cohort windows + 8 downstream subscriber agents.
The descriptive industry pattern at 100k-100M customers across multiple lifecycle channels: cohort definitions live in spreadsheets the marketing analyst team maintains; cohort membership refreshes overnight rather than at runtime; per-cohort confidence + source-attribution + effective-window + transition- tracking gets approximated; GDPR Article 22 + CCPA automated- decision-making disclosure obligations get applied per-cohort rather than per-membership-decision; the same cohort definition drifts across CDP + ESP + journey-orchestrator + loyalty platforms without runtime synchronization. Segment, mParticle, Tealium, Treasure Data, RudderStack, Snowplow, ActionIQ, Amperity, Lytics, BlueConic, Twilio Engage, Salesforce CDP, and Adobe Real-Time CDP ship excellent customer-data-platform primitives. Klaviyo, Braze, Iterable, and Customer.io ship excellent lifecycle messaging primitives. The 5-skill streaming pipeline that captures across 25 behavior signal types, computes cohorts via 13 clustering methods across 6 windows, resolves membership with confidence + source attribution + effective window + transition tracking, emits to 8 downstream subscriber agents, and produces GDPR Article 22 + CCPA automated-decision- making attestation is operator-side architecture. Completions builds and operates the 5-skill bundle on the customer-graph agent. Operator owns every artifact and can in-house at any time.

Frequently asked
What does the done-for-you behavioral cohort computation engagement deliver?
Completions builds and operates a 5-skill bundle on the customer-graph agent: Signal-Capture, Cohort-Computation, Membership-Resolution, Cross-Skill-Emission, Attestation. Skill 1 (signal capture) captures behavior signals across 25 types: purchase, return, browse, search, cart, wishlist, review, referral, visit, call, chat, email engagement, SMS engagement, push engagement, social engagement, app session, loyalty action, support contact, survey response, consent event, identity link, identity unlink, preference change, milestone event, anomaly event. Skill 2 (cohort computation) computes cohorts via 13 methods (RFM, K-means, hierarchical clustering, DBSCAN, Gaussian mixture, LDA topic, word2vec, graph clustering, survival cohort, funnel cohort, journey cohort, intent cohort, persona cohort) across 6 windows (24-hour, 7-day, 28-day, 90-day, 365-day, lifetime). Skill 3 (membership resolution) resolves cohort membership with confidence, source attribution, effective window, and transition tracking attached. Skill 4 (cross-skill emission) emits cohort-membership records to 8 downstream subscriber agents: offer-optimizer, journey-orchestrator, communication-broadcast, loyalty, measurement-attribution-engine, local-context, local-sem, page-generator. Skill 5 (cohort attestation) emits an attestation record with attestor identity, timestamp, decision, rationale, signature, WORM-storage commit, chain-of-custody, GDPR Article 22 automated-decision-making attestation, and CCPA automated-decision-making attestation. The per-vertical compliance overlay covers GDPR Article 22 + CCPA automated-decision-making + FCRA + GLBA + per-vertical cohort-disclosure + per-jurisdiction cohort-disclosure. Operator owns every artifact: 5 registries in operator data infrastructure; 5-skill model code aligned with operator marketing + data-science + counsel teams; per-source credentials (CRM + POS + ESP + SMS + ad + loyalty + per-vertical specialty sources) under operator billing; per-vertical compliance overlay rule library; per-jurisdiction disclosure register; brand spec; LLM prompts; audit trail. Completions owns the swarm-orchestration knowledge.
Why is runtime behavioral cohort computation typically operator-side rather than CDP-or-ESP-vendor-shipped?
The customer-data-platform vendors (Segment, mParticle, Tealium, Treasure Data, RudderStack, Snowplow, ActionIQ, Amperity, Lytics, BlueConic, Twilio Engage, Salesforce CDP, Adobe Real-Time CDP) ship excellent event-stream ingest, identity resolution, and audience definition primitives. The lifecycle messaging vendors (Klaviyo, Braze, Iterable, Customer.io) ship excellent message-send infrastructure and journey orchestration. Neither side ships the 5-skill runtime cohort computation pipeline because the behavior-signal taxonomy reflects operator-specific catalog + journey + loyalty event models; the cohort-computation methods integrate operator data-science workflows; the membership resolution + transition tracking reflects operator-side decision policy; the GDPR Article 22 + CCPA automated-decision-making attestation tracks operator legal team approved frameworks; the cross-skill emission topology integrates with operator marketing-stack agent set. The work that remains operator-side spans five engineering surfaces: capture-engineering for 25-signal-type ingest at 100k-100M-customer scale; data-science capacity for 13-method × 6-window cohort computation; data-engineering for membership resolution with confidence + source attribution + effective window + transition tracking; emission-engineering for 8-subscriber routing with acknowledgment + SLA tracking; orchestration capacity to coordinate the runtime-cohort pipeline end-to-end. Completions absorbs all five surfaces under one Tier 3 Fractional CMO with AI Swarm engagement and hands the artifacts back at engagement end.
What does the engagement look like across Tier 1 to Tier 2 to Tier 3?
Tier 1 AI Readiness Assessment (2-3 weeks, diagnostic): audits five axes. Tier 2 AI Swarm Setup Sprint (4-8 weeks): builds 5-skill bundle on customer-graph agent — completing the 12th 5-skill bundle + Data-fabric QUINTET established + Runtime-cohort signature architecture. Tier 3 Fractional CMO with AI Swarm (6-month minimum, 1-2 days/wk embedded): continues operating end-to-end + cross-agent swarm coordination.
Who owns the registries?
Operator owns 100% of every artifact: 5 registries (in operator data infrastructure), 5-skill bundle model code (operator-owned + operator-marketing-team + operator-data-science-team-aligned + operator-counsel-aligned), per-source credentials (CRM + POS + ESP + SMS + ad + loyalty + per-vertical specialty sources under operator billing + operator credentials), per-vertical compliance overlay (rule library in operator repo with attorney-approved updates), GDPR + CCPA + FCRA + GLBA + per-vertical + per-jurisdiction disclosure register (operator-owned + operator-counsel-maintained), brand spec, LLM prompts, audit trail. Completions owns the orchestration knowledge.
What measurement and reporting does Completions commit to on Tier 3?
Measured against the operator pre-engagement baseline across ten workstreams, reported weekly. (1) Signal-capture coverage trajectory — share of customer-behavior events under active capture across the 25 signal types; per-signal-type ingest health. (2) Cohort-computation quality — per-method (13 methods) + per-window (6 windows) cohort-output silhouette score + cluster stability + cohort-purity against an operator-labeled validation set. Reported against pre-engagement baseline rather than at a 90-percent target because computation quality depends on the labeled-validation regime and feature engineering operator approves. (3) Membership-resolution accuracy — per-cohort membership precision + recall + confidence-interval coverage against the operator labeled holdout. (4) Cross-skill emission latency — end-to-end time from cohort-membership change to downstream-subscriber acknowledgment; reported against pre-engagement batched-cohort-update baseline (typically overnight). (5) Cohort-attestation completeness — per-cohort WORM-storage commit rate; per-cohort GDPR Article 22 + CCPA automated-decision-making attestation completeness. (6) Cohort-computation cycle latency — end-to-end time for the Signal-Capture + Cohort-Computation + Membership-Resolution + Cross-Skill-Emission + Attestation cycle. (7) Compliance-overlay adherence — GDPR Article 22 + CCPA + FCRA + GLBA + per-vertical + per-jurisdiction cohort-disclosure rule-evaluation completeness; flagged-for-counsel volume against pre-engagement baseline. (8) Cohort-confidence calibration — calibration curve trace of cohort-confidence scores against subsequent membership-validation outcomes. (9) Cohort-transition tracking — per-customer per-cohort transition rate; per-transition-type precision against operator-labeled validation. (10) Audit-trail completeness — per-cohort decision-history persistence; per-membership-event WORM commit rate. Process commitments are firm: weekly per-signal-type capture health check; weekly cohort-method recalibration queue; weekly per-subscriber emission routing rule sync; weekly per-vertical compliance overlay update; weekly GDPR Article 22 + CCPA notice-emission audit; weekly audit-trail emission. Outcome targets are not promised because cohort-computation quality + membership accuracy depend on operator-side labeled-validation regime + feature engineering + cohort definition policy Completions does not unilaterally control.
How does engagement end and what is the operator transition path?
Tier 3 engagements are 6-month minimum with 90-day notice. At engagement end, Completions transitions back to operator in-house in 30-60 days: operating-playbook hand-off + in-house staff training + 5 registries hand-off + 5-skill bundle model code hand-off + per-source credentials hand-off + LLM prompts hand-off + audit trail hand-off; Completions credentials revoke immediately.
