Pull the behavior. Add a PostHog action. Use the customer email to look up that user’s distinct ID if your setup requires it, then retrieve events from the last thirty days. You want concrete actions: page names, feature flags evaluated, buttons clicked, error events. Do not grab everything. Be selective. Too much noise makes the prompt muddy and the output generic. Aim for the dozen events that tell a story.

Build the prompt in a Python step. Add Zapier’s Code by Zapier step and choose Python. Construct a prompt that separates context from instruction. Feed in the PostHog timeline as a structured list. Include the Stripe data: plan name, start date, cancellation reason if available. Ask the model to write a short, personalized win-back email that acknowledges their specific behavior and offers a clear next step. Call the AI API directly from this step. You can use OpenAI, Anthropic, or any other provider that offers an HTTP endpoint. Keep your API key in Zapier’s environment secrets.

Route for human review. Create an action that pushes the AI output to where you live. If you use a CRM like HubSpot or Airtable, attach the draft to the user record. If you use Slack, post it in a private channel with the user’s name and cancellation date. Include a tag or status field that says "needs review." This is your bottleneck by design. Never let the AI send the email directly.

Why Keep the Human in the Loop

It is tempting to close the loop entirely. Let the machine fire off the email and save yourself even more time. Resist that temptation.

Your brand voice is too subtle for automation. The AI will sometimes sound overly apologetic, or it will promise fixes you have not built yet, or it will reference a bug that never actually affected that user because it misread an event name. You are the final filter.

There is another reason to keep the send step manual. Every churn email you review is a learning session. After ten of these drafts, you will spot patterns. You will realize three users left after getting stuck on the same integration step. You will notice that enterprise plan cancellations always happen after a specific report fails to load. That intelligence feeds back into your product roadmap in a way a fully automated loop never could.

You are not just saving time on outreach. You are building a cheap, recurring churn diagnosis machine.

The Real Payoff

This setup is not about perfect artificial intelligence. It is about making churn survivable when you are alone. You turn a chaotic emotional event into a repeatable system. The research happens automatically. The draft writes itself. The decision to reach out, and the words you ultimately send, stay entirely yours.

Over time, your win-back rate will improve not because the model got smarter, but because you got smarter. You started seeing the leaks in your boat clearly enough to patch them.
