Solution Overview
Problem
Banks face challenges in identifying and preventing client attrition, as existing methods lack predictive accuracy and personalized retention strategies across multiple banking channels.
Innovation Solution

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional attrition identification methods are used, then implementation is simple, but predictive accuracy is low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces traditional mechanical/statistical attriction identification methods with a neural network-based artificial intelligence system. The neural network processes multiple client attributes and interaction data to generate predictive attrition scores, substituting simple rule-based systems with a more complex but accurate machine learning model that can identify non-linear patterns in client behavior.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a new dimensional approach by implementing multi-channel tracking across website, mobile app, and other banking platforms. This adds spatial and temporal dimensions to client interaction data, allowing the neural network to analyze client behavior across multiple dimensions simultaneously, thereby improving predictive accuracy beyond traditional single-channel methods.
2Reliability
If generic retention strategies are applied, then implementation is easy, but retention effectiveness is low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by customizing retention offers and interventions based on each client's specific attrition risk profile, behavior patterns, and preferences. Instead of uniform retention strategies, the system tailors communications, incentives, and interventions to match individual client characteristics identified through neural network analysis, thereby improving retention effectiveness through personalized approaches.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements preliminary action by proactively identifying clients at risk of attrition before they actually leave. The neural network continuously monitors client behavior and generates early warning signals, allowing the bank to intervene with retention strategies before the client decides to switch banks, rather than reacting after attrition has occurred.
3Productivity
If manual retention processes are used, then system complexity is low, but productivity is low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service automation where the neural network system autonomously performs attriction prediction, client segmentation, and retention strategy generation without manual intervention. The system automatically processes client data, identifies at-risk clients, and recommends or executes retention actions, freeing human employees from manual analysis and enabling scalable processing of large client volumes.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent incorporates feedback loops where the results of retention interventions are fed back into the neural network system. This allows the model to learn from actual outcomes and continuously improve its predictive accuracy and retention strategy effectiveness, creating a self-optimizing system that enhances productivity over time through automated learning and adaptation.
Data Source
AI summary
A system including a back-end coupled to an interaction database and a master database. The back-end server includes a processor, a communications interface communicatively coupled to the processor, and a memory device storing executable code that, when executed, causes the processor to collect interaction data and information from multiple interaction channels between all users and nodes, store the collected interaction data and information in the interaction database, collect user data and information corresponding to all of the users, store the collected user data and information in the master database, access both the interaction database and the master database to access the stored interaction data and user data, process the accessed interaction data and user data through a machine learning model, receive an attrition result from the machine learning model, and trigger a retention action corresponding to the user, where retention of the users minimizes trash data stored in system databases.
