SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Behavioral economics principles are embedded into Susan agents to improve user engagement and retention by leveraging proven cognitive biases and decision frameworks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 12 BE mechanisms integrated into agent behavior to shape user decisions and retention.
  • LAAL Protocol: ownership creation, leaving cost, quick-return actions, rewards, and a growth loop to drive re-engagement.
  • Loss Framing Protocol: default to loss-framed copy to emphasize value of continuing vs. leaving.
  • Copy Templates by Trigger: ready-made prompts for Dormant (D3, D7, D14) and At-Risk scenarios to re-engage users.
  • Agent BE Map: structured checklist (Loss Audit, Ownership, Identity Alignment, Friction, Progress) to ensure BE applications are effective and measurable.

Quick Start

Describe how to apply the BE Lens to a user interaction within a Susan agent workflow.

FAQPage Schema
How do I use behavioral economics to improve user engagement and retention?

Improve user engagement with behavioral economics by embedding cognitive biases and decision frameworks into agent interaction flows. Mechanisms like loss framing and the LAAL protocol shape user decisions and drive long-term retention.

What is the LAAL protocol for user retention?

The LAAL protocol is a user retention framework that drives re-engagement by structuring ownership creation, leaving costs, quick-return actions, rewards, and a growth loop. It guides agent behavior to incentivize users to stay active.

How do I apply loss framing to re-engage dormant users?

Apply loss framing to re-engage dormant users by deploying ready-made copy templates that default to loss-framed messaging. These templates target D3, D7, and D14 dormancy triggers to emphasize the value of continuing versus leaving.

How do I audit behavioral economics applications in an agent workflow?

Audit behavioral economics applications by using the Agent BE Map checklist. This evaluates Loss Audit, Ownership, Identity Alignment, Friction, and Progress to ensure BE interventions are effective and measurable across decision-finding flows.

Can I integrate behavioral economics principles without external dependencies?

Yes, you can integrate behavioral economics principles without external dependencies. The framework applies 12 BE mechanisms, structured copy templates, and agent-level guidance directly within Susan's decision-finding and interaction flows.

When should I use behavioral economics mechanisms for user retention?

Use behavioral economics mechanisms for user retention when you need to proactively re-engage at-risk or dormant users. The framework provides specific copy templates for D3, D7, and D14 dormancy triggers to intervene before churn.
