SUMMARY:Autonomous CS Agents and the Next Era of Customer Success
DESCRIPTION:Customer Success is about to move from “tell me what happened” to “go fix it.” \nFor years\, CS teams have lived inside dashboards\, health scores\, alerts\, and QBR prep. But the real work starts after the signal appears:\nWhy is engagement dropping? Are we single-threaded? Which stakeholder went quiet? Is this a product issue\, a business issue\, or a relationship issue? What should the CSM do next? That investigation is where Customer Success teams spend enormous time. \nOn August 4 at 11:00 AM PT\, We’re hosting a webinar with Nehal Patel\, Chief Customer Officer at BrandLight\, on the launch of Autonomous CS Agents. \nNehal challenged us with a simple but powerful question:\nCan AI agents identify relationship risks\, like single-threaded accounts\, declining engagement\, and weakening stakeholder coverage\, long before they become visible churn threats? That question gets to the heart of modern Customer Success. \nRelationship risk is often invisible until it is too late. By the time an account is escalated\, the real problem may have started weeks or months earlier.\nIn this webinar\, we will show how CS can move from reactive account management to autonomous investigation and action. \n• Why relationship risk is becoming central to modern CS\n• How AI agents can investigate risks before they become threats\n• How Needle Movers are expanding beyond product usage into business\, product\, relationship\, risk\, and opportunity signals\n• What it means to run CS in CSM-assist or fully autonomous mode\n• How Enterprise CS and Scaled CS can both benefit from long-horizon customer context \nThis is not just another AI feature launch.\nIt is a new operating model for Customer Success: autonomous agents that detect what matters\, investigate why it is happening\, recommend what to do\, and eventually take action.

SUMMARY:The future of customer onboarding
DESCRIPTION:Most onboarding programs still run on a fixed timeline: a set walkthrough\, then silence until renewal. That doesn’t match how often products change now\, or what customers expect once the sales process ends. \nSo what replaces the 90-day model? And when AI can personalize onboarding content and handle scheduling and admin\, what’s actually left for the CSM to do? \nJoin Kadee Acree\, Director of Customer Success at UKG\, as she breaks down what’s replacing time-boxed onboarding: continuous programs that adjust to each customer\, clear lines between what to automate and what needs a person\, and new ways to tell if onboarding is actually working. \nWhat we’re covering:\n\nThe end of the 90-day model: Why fixed-timeline onboarding breaks down when products ship weekly\, and what’s replacing it.\nThe human vs. automation split: Which onboarding tasks (scheduling\, file transfer\, status updates) should be handed to the customer or automated\, and where a CSM still needs to show up.\nAI in onboarding\, today: Which AI-driven onboarding uses are already delivering results\, and which are still stuck at the pilot stage.\n\nIn this session\, you’ll learn how to:\n\nMove from a fixed onboarding period to a continuous\, adaptive one\nSeparate onboarding admin work from the parts that require judgment\nGive customers a way to progress without waiting on a CSM\nEvaluate which AI onboarding tools are ready to use and which aren’t\nMeasure onboarding success without relying on a fixed end date
