[Revenue Dashboard and Alerts](#chapter-8-revenue-dashboard-and-alerts) --- ## Chapter 1: The Revenue Gap in Agent Commerce ### Cost Management Is Not Revenue Management The FinOps movement has trained the industry to obsess over cost. Every agent framework tutorial covers budget caps. Every infrastructure guide explains how to set spend alerts. Cloud providers publish cost optimization whitepapers quarterly. This emphasis is correct -- uncontrolled agent costs can destroy margins overnight -- but it creates a dangerous blind spot. Teams that can tell you their cost per tool call to four decimal places often cannot answer "what is our revenue per customer this month?" to the nearest dollar. Cost management and revenue management are fundamentally different disciplines. Cost management is about efficiency: reducing the denominator. Revenue management is about growth: increasing the numerator. You can optimize costs to zero and still fail because revenue went to zero first. The companies that win in agent commerce are the ones that measure both sides of the equation. Consider a concrete example. You operate a data enrichment agent service. Your FinOps dashboard shows that your cost per enrichment call is $0.003, down from $0.005 last quarter -- a 40% efficiency improvement. You celebrate. But what you do not see is that your revenue per enrichment call dropped from $0.015 to $0.008 because a competitor entered the marketplace at $0.009 and your highest-volume customer switched to them. Your margin per call actually shrank from $0.010 to $0.005. The cost optimization masked a revenue crisis. ### AI Apps: High Revenue, Higher Churn RevenueCat's 2026 analysis of 30,000 subscription apps revealed a striking pattern in AI-powered applications. Compared to traditional SaaS: - **Revenue per user is 41% higher.** AI apps command premium pricing because they deliver immediate, measurable value. An agent that saves four hours of manual data processing per week justifies a higher price than a traditional tool that merely organizes a workflow. - **Churn is 30% faster.** AI apps lose subscribers more quickly because (a) the novelty effect is stronger -- users try the AI tool, get excited, then normalize it, (b) switching costs are lower -- if the value comes from the model, any wrapper around a comparable model is substitutable, and (c) expectations are higher -- a traditional app that works adequately retains users; an AI app that is merely adequate gets replaced by one that is impressive. - **Net revenue per user over 12 months is only 8% higher** when you account for the elevated churn. The revenue advantage nearly evaporates. For agent-to-agent commerce, the pattern intensifies. When your customers are themselves AI agents, the switching decision is not emotional -- it is algorithmic. An orchestrator agent evaluating your enrichment service against a competitor will switch the moment the competitor's price-adjusted quality score exceeds yours. There is no loyalty, no switching friction from muscle memory, no reluctance to learn a new interface. The agent's code changes one URL and one API key. This means revenue analytics for agent services is not optional -- it is survival. You need to see the churn coming before it happens, understand which cohorts retain and which do not, and continuously optimize the price point that maximizes lifetime revenue rather than per-transaction revenue. ### Why Traditional SaaS Metrics Need Adaptation Standard SaaS metrics -- MRR, ARR, churn rate, LTV, CAC -- were designed for subscription products with human customers. Agent commerce has three structural differences that require adaptation. **First, usage is bursty and non-uniform.** A human user of a SaaS product logs in roughly daily with similar session patterns. An agent customer might call your service 10,000 times on Monday and zero times on Tuesday because its orchestrator only triggers your tool when a specific condition is met. Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) is still meaningful, but you need to complement it with usage-weighted metrics. **Second, customers are identified by agent IDs, not email addresses.** You cannot send a churn-risk customer a winback email. You can adjust pricing, improve response times, or register a webhook to detect the moment their usage drops. Your retention interventions are programmatic, not personal. **Third, pricing is often per-call rather than per-seat.** The LTV calculation changes when revenue is proportional to usage rather than a fixed monthly fee. An agent customer using your service 50,000 times per month at $0.001 per call is worth $50/month -- the same as a subscription customer paying $50/month -- but the revenue dynamics are entirely different. Usage-based revenue can grow without the customer explicitly upgrading, but it can also drop to zero without the customer explicitly canceling. This guide adapts every traditional SaaS metric to the realities of agent commerce, using the data already available through GreenHelix billing, payments, and marketplace APIs. --- ## Chapter 2: Revenue Attribution ### Knowing Where Your Revenue Comes From Revenue attribution answers a deceptively simple question: which of your agent services generated which revenue, and through which channel? When you operate multiple agent services -- a data enrichment tool, a translation tool, and a sentiment analysis tool -- and revenue arrives as aggregated billing summaries, you need to decompose that revenue by service, by customer, and by acquisition channel. In agent commerce, there are three primary revenue channels: - **Marketplace**: Customers discover your service through `search_services` on the GreenHelix marketplace. These are organic, low-acquisition-cost customers. - **Direct**: Customers integrate your service directly via API key sharing, documentation, or partner integrations. These often have higher acquisition costs but stronger retention. - **Referral**: Customers arrive because another agent in their workflow recommended or required your service as a dependency. These are the highest-value customers because the switching cost is embedded in their workflow architecture. The challenge is that GreenHelix billing data does not natively tag revenue by channel. You need to infer it from the combination of billing summaries, invoice metadata, and marketplace activity. The `RevenueTracker` class below builds this attribution layer. ### The RevenueTracker Class This is the core class for this guide. It wraps every GreenHelix tool used across all eight chapters. Define it once and extend it with methods as we progress. ```python import requests import json import time import math import statistics from datetime import datetime, timedelta from typing import Optional from collections import defaultdict class RevenueTracker: """Revenue analytics client for the GreenHelix A2A Commerce Gateway. Wraps billing, payments, marketplace, identity, trust, and webhook tools into a revenue measurement and optimization interface.

The method pulls invoice data, categorizes each transaction by source channel, and aggregates revenue by service and channel. ```python # -- Revenue Attribution ------------------------------------------- def get_revenue_summary( self, start_date: str, end_date: str, ) -> dict: """Build a revenue summary with attribution by service and channel. Combines billing summaries, invoice data, and usage analytics to attribute revenue to specific services and acquisition channels. """ # Pull the raw data billing = self.get_billing_summary(period="monthly") usage = self.get_usage_analytics(start_date, end_date) invoices = self.list_invoices(status="paid") # Aggregate revenue by service revenue_by_service = defaultdict(float) revenue_by_channel = defaultdict(float) transactions = [] for invoice in invoices.get("invoices", []): amount = float(invoice.get("amount", 0)) service = invoice.get("service_id", "unknown") source = invoice.get("metadata", {}).get("source", "direct") # Classify the acquisition channel channel = self._classify_channel(source, invoice) revenue_by_service[service] += amount revenue_by_channel[channel] += amount transactions.append({ "invoice_id": invoice.get("id"), "amount": amount, "service": service, "channel": channel, "date": invoice.get("created_at"), }) total_revenue = sum(revenue_by_service.values()) return { "period": {"start": start_date, "end": end_date}, "total_revenue": round(total_revenue, 2), "revenue_by_service": { k: round(v, 2) for k, v in revenue_by_service.items() }, "revenue_by_channel": { k: round(v, 2) for k, v in revenue_by_channel.items() }, "transaction_count": len(transactions), "billing_summary": billing, "usage_summary": usage, } def _classify_channel(self, source: str, invoice: dict) -> str: """Classify an invoice into an acquisition channel. Uses heuristics based on invoice metadata and source field: - 'marketplace' if discovered via search_services - 'referral' if another agent's workflow triggered it - 'direct' for API key integrations and manual setups """ if source == "marketplace" or "marketplace" in source: return "marketplace" if source == "referral" or invoice.get("metadata", {}).get("referrer"): return "referral" return "direct" def get_revenue_by_service(self) -> dict: """Get current-period revenue broken down by service. Uses spending-by-category as a proxy: your customers' spending on your services is your revenue. """ categories = self.get_spending_by_category() services = {} for category in categories.get("categories", []): services[category["name"]] = { "revenue": float(category.get("total_spent", 0)), "call_count": int(category.get("call_count", 0)), "avg_revenue_per_call": round( float(category.get("total_spent", 0)) / max(int(category.get("call_count", 0)), 1), 6, ), } return services ``` ### Interpreting Attribution Data Revenue attribution reveals three patterns that are invisible in aggregate billing data. **Service concentration risk.** If 80% of your revenue comes from one service, you have a single point of failure. A competitor undercutting that service or a platform change that degrades its performance will crater your revenue. Diversification across services is as important for agent operators as portfolio diversification is for investors. **Channel dependency.** Marketplace-sourced revenue is low-cost but volatile -- you are at the mercy of search algorithm changes and competitor listings. Direct revenue is higher-cost to acquire but stickier. Referral revenue is the gold standard: it means your service is embedded in another agent's workflow, making switching costly. A healthy agent business derives no more than 50% of revenue from any single channel. **Revenue-per-call divergence.** When your average revenue per call differs significantly across services, it signals either a pricing opportunity (raise the price on the high-demand service) or a cost problem (the low-revenue service may not be worth maintaining). The `avg_revenue_per_call` metric in the code above makes this divergence visible. --- ## Chapter 3: Customer Lifetime Value ### LTV for Agent-to-Agent Services Customer Lifetime Value (LTV) is the total revenue you expect from a customer over their entire relationship with your service. In traditional SaaS, LTV is the primary metric for deciding how much to spend on acquisition, which segments to prioritize, and whether the business model is sustainable. The rule of thumb: LTV should be at least 3x the Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC). If it costs you $10 to acquire a customer through marketplace advertising, that customer should generate at least $30 in lifetime revenue. For agent-to-agent commerce, LTV has a structural difference. Your customers are agents, and agents have two lifetime horizons: - **Agent lifetime**: How long the customer agent itself exists. If the customer is a research agent spun up for a three-month project, your maximum relationship duration is three months regardless of satisfaction. - **Operator lifetime**: How long the human or organization behind the customer agent continues to use agent services. An operator who shuts down one agent might launch a successor that uses your service again. The practical implication is that LTV in agent commerce often has a shorter but more predictable horizon than in human SaaS. Agents do not have emotional loyalty, but they also do not have emotional whims. An agent that finds value in your service at day 30 will still find value at day 90 unless the external context changes. This makes LTV estimation more reliable once you have enough cohort data. ### Simple LTV Calculation The simplest LTV formula is: ``` LTV = Average Revenue Per Period / Churn Rate ``` If your average customer generates $45/month in revenue and your monthly churn rate is 15%, then: ``` LTV = $45 / 0.15 = $300 ``` This formula assumes constant revenue per period and constant churn rate, which are obviously simplifications. But it gives you a useful baseline. Here is the implementation using GreenHelix billing data. ```python # -- Customer Lifetime Value --------------------------------------- def get_customer_history( self, customer_agent_id: str, ) -> dict: """Build a complete revenue history for a specific customer agent. Pulls all invoices from a customer and computes per-period revenue, tenure, and activity patterns. """ invoices = self.list_invoices() customer_invoices = [ inv for inv in invoices.get("invoices", []) if inv.get("payer_agent_id") == customer_agent_id ] if not customer_invoices: return { "customer_agent_id": customer_agent_id, "total_revenue": 0, "tenure_days": 0, "invoice_count": 0, "monthly_revenue": [], } # Sort by date customer_invoices.sort(key=lambda x: x.get("created_at", "")) first_date = datetime.fromisoformat( customer_invoices[0]["created_at"].replace("Z", "+00:00") ) last_date = datetime.fromisoformat( customer_invoices[-1]["created_at"].replace("Z", "+00:00") ) tenure_days = max((last_date - first_date).days, 1) # Aggregate by month monthly = defaultdict(float) total = 0.0 for inv in customer_invoices: amount = float(inv.get("amount", 0)) total += amount month_key = inv["created_at"][:7] # YYYY-MM monthly[month_key] += amount monthly_revenue = [ {"month": k, "revenue": round(v, 2)} for k, v in sorted(monthly.items()) ] return { "customer_agent_id": customer_agent_id, "total_revenue": round(total, 2), "tenure_days": tenure_days, "tenure_months": round(tenure_days / 30.44, 1), "invoice_count": len(customer_invoices), "first_invoice": customer_invoices[0]["created_at"], "last_invoice": customer_invoices[-1]["created_at"], "avg_monthly_revenue": round( total / max(len(monthly), 1), 2 ), "monthly_revenue": monthly_revenue, } def calculate_ltv( self, customer_histories: list[dict], churn_rate: Optional[float] = None, ) -> dict: """Calculate customer lifetime value from a set of customer histories.

""" if not customer_histories: return {"ltv": 0, "avg_revenue_per_month": 0, "churn_rate": 0} # Calculate average monthly revenue across all customers monthly_revenues = [] active_count = 0 churned_count = 0 now = datetime.utcnow() churn_threshold_days = 30 for history in customer_histories: avg_monthly = history.get("avg_monthly_revenue", 0) if avg_monthly > 0: monthly_revenues.append(avg_monthly) # Estimate churn if not provided if churn_rate is None: last_invoice = history.get("last_invoice", "") if last_invoice: last_date = datetime.fromisoformat( last_invoice.replace("Z", "+00:00") ).replace(tzinfo=None) days_since_last = (now - last_date).days if days_since_last > churn_threshold_days: churned_count += 1 else: active_count += 1 avg_revenue_per_month = ( statistics.mean(monthly_revenues) if monthly_revenues else 0 ) # Estimate churn rate if not provided if churn_rate is None: total_customers = active_count + churned_count if total_customers > 0: churn_rate = churned_count / total_customers else: churn_rate = 0.10 # Default assumption: 10% monthly churn # Guard against division by zero if churn_rate <= 0: churn_rate = 0.01 # Assume 1% minimum churn ltv = avg_revenue_per_month / churn_rate # Also calculate median and percentile LTVs individual_ltvs = [ rev / churn_rate for rev in monthly_revenues ] return { "ltv": round(ltv, 2), "avg_revenue_per_month": round(avg_revenue_per_month, 2), "churn_rate": round(churn_rate, 4), "expected_lifetime_months": round(1 / churn_rate, 1), "customer_count": len(customer_histories), "active_count": active_count, "churned_count": churned_count, "ltv_median": round( statistics.median(individual_ltvs), 2 ) if individual_ltvs else 0, "ltv_p25": round( sorted(individual_ltvs)[len(individual_ltvs) // 4], 2 ) if len(individual_ltvs) >= 4 else 0, "ltv_p75": round( sorted(individual_ltvs)[3 * len(individual_ltvs) // 4], 2 ) if len(individual_ltvs) >= 4 else 0, } ``` ### Using LTV to Drive Decisions LTV is not a vanity metric. It directly informs three operational decisions: **Acquisition spending.** If your LTV is $300 and your target LTV/CAC ratio is 3:1, you can spend up to $100 to acquire a customer. In agent commerce, acquisition cost might be the marketplace listing fee, the cost of a free trial, or the engineering time to build an integration. If your LTV is $50, spending $100 on an integration is irrational. **Tier prioritization.** Segment your customers by LTV. High-LTV customers get faster response times, priority support, and custom pricing. Low-LTV customers get standard service. The GreenHelix tier system (free, pro, enterprise) maps directly to LTV segments. An agent customer generating $500/month in revenue justifies pro-tier treatment with lower per-call costs and dedicated endpoints. **Churn investment.** The cost of retaining an existing customer should be proportional to their remaining LTV. If a customer with $200 of remaining LTV shows churn risk signals, investing $20 in a retention offer (a temporary discount, a free feature upgrade) has a 10:1 expected return. If a customer with $10 of remaining LTV shows the same signals, let them go. --- ## Chapter 4: Cohort Analysis ### Why Cohorts Matter More Than Averages Your overall monthly churn rate is 12%. Is that good or bad? You cannot tell without cohort analysis. A 12% average might mean every cohort churns at 12% -- a consistent, predictable pattern. Or it might mean your January cohort churns at 5% while your March cohort churns at 25% because you made a pricing change in February that attracted price-sensitive customers who do not retain. The average hides the story. Cohorts reveal it. A cohort is a group of customers who share a common characteristic, usually the period when they first became a customer. The January 2026 cohort is every agent that first called your service in January. You track each cohort's revenue, retention, and usage over time to see how customer behavior evolves. For agent services, cohort analysis answers three critical questions: 1. **Are newer customers better or worse than older ones?** If your March cohort retains better than your January cohort, something you changed is working. If retention is declining cohort over cohort, you have a product or market problem. 2. **When does churn stabilize?** Most agent services see high churn in the first 7-14 days (the evaluation period) followed by a plateau. Knowing this inflection point tells you when a customer has "stuck" and their lifetime revenue becomes predictable. 3. **What is the revenue curve shape?** Some services see flat revenue per customer (subscription-like). Others see growing revenue (expansion) as customers integrate deeper. Others see declining revenue (contraction) as customers optimize their usage. The cohort curve tells you which pattern you have. ### Building Cohorts from Billing Data ```python # -- Cohort Analysis ----------------------------------------------- def build_cohorts( self, invoices: Optional[list[dict]] = None, cohort_period: str = "monthly", ) -> dict: """Build customer cohorts from invoice data.

This is the single most important trend to track. **Stabilizing retention curves.** Each cohort's retention should flatten after the initial churn period. If your retention curve never flattens -- customers continue churning at the same rate month after month -- you have a product-market fit problem. Customers are not finding enough ongoing value to justify continued use. **Growing revenue per surviving customer.** The best agent services show net revenue expansion within cohorts: the customers who stay spend more over time. This means they are integrating your service deeper into their workflows, using more features, or processing more volume. If revenue per surviving customer is flat, you are a utility. If it is growing, you are becoming infrastructure. **The danger signal.** If newer cohorts are both smaller (fewer new customers) and churn faster (lower retention), you are in a death spiral. The marketplace is moving away from you. This is the signal to either dramatically improve the product or pivot. Cohort analysis gives you this signal months before it shows up in aggregate MRR. --- ## Chapter 5: Churn Prediction ### Leading Indicators of Agent Customer Churn By the time a customer has churned -- their last invoice was 30+ days ago and usage has dropped to zero -- it is too late. Effective churn management requires predicting churn before it happens, ideally 7-14 days before the customer stops using your service. For agent customers, there are five reliable leading indicators, all detectable from GreenHelix billing and usage data. **Indicator 1: Usage volume decline.** A customer whose daily call volume drops by more than 40% from their trailing 30-day average is at high risk. This is the strongest predictor. Usage decline usually precedes churn by 7-21 days. The drop may be gradual (progressive disengagement) or sudden (the customer is testing an alternative). **Indicator 2: Usage pattern change.** A customer who previously called your service at consistent intervals (every hour, every day) and shifts to sporadic, unpredictable calls is exploring alternatives. They are comparing your service to competitors and only falling back to you when the alternative fails. **Indicator 3: Revenue per call decline.** If a customer shifts from high-value operations to low-value ones -- using only your cheapest endpoints while avoiding premium features -- they are extracting remaining value before leaving. This is the "already has one foot out the door" signal. **Indicator 4: Payment delays.** When invoices that previously cleared in 1-2 days start taking 5-7 days, the customer's operator may be deprioritizing your service in their budget allocation. Payment delays are a weak signal individually but a strong signal when combined with usage decline. **Indicator 5: Reputation changes.** If a customer's trust score drops, they may be experiencing issues with other services too, which could indicate financial distress or organizational problems that will eventually affect their relationship with you. ### Building a Churn Risk Score ```python # -- Churn Prediction ---------------------------------------------- def calculate_churn_risk( self, customer_agent_id: str, lookback_days: int = 60, ) -> dict: """Calculate a churn risk score (0-100) for a customer agent.

Here is the intervention playbook by risk tier: **Critical (70-100).** This customer is leaving within 1-2 weeks. Immediate actions: (a) check if your service has had any errors or latency increases for this customer, (b) if you have a dynamic pricing capability, temporarily reduce their per-call cost by 20-30% to increase the switching cost, (c) register a webhook for their usage events so you see the exact moment they stop calling. **High (45-69).** This customer is likely evaluating alternatives. Actions: (a) check competitor pricing in the marketplace using `search_services` to see if you are being undercut, (b) if the customer's volume warrants it, offer a volume discount commitment, (c) analyze which of your service endpoints they are no longer using -- if they dropped a premium feature, understand why. **Medium (25-44).** This customer shows early warning signs but may not be actively churning. Actions: (a) monitor weekly, (b) ensure your service performance is stable, (c) consider proactive outreach if you have a communication channel to the customer's operator. **Low (0-24).** Healthy customer. No intervention needed, but continue monitoring. Even low-risk customers should be included in cohort analysis to ensure the baseline does not shift. The key insight for agent commerce is that retention interventions are programmatic. You do not send an email with a special offer. You adjust pricing parameters, improve response latency, or enhance the service quality. The webhook system lets you detect the moment a customer's behavior changes and trigger automated responses. --- ## Chapter 6: Pricing Optimization ### The Price That Maximizes Revenue Pricing is the single highest-leverage decision in any business. A 1% improvement in price realization -- getting 1% more revenue from the same volume -- typically has a larger impact on profit than a 1% improvement in cost, volume, or conversion rate. McKinsey's research consistently shows that pricing improvements flow to the bottom line at 2-4x the rate of cost improvements. For agent services, pricing optimization is both more important and more tractable than for traditional SaaS. More important because agent customers switch on price-adjusted quality with zero friction. More tractable because you have granular, high-frequency usage data that reveals price sensitivity with statistical precision. Every tool call is a data point. A service handling 10,000 calls per day generates enough data to estimate price elasticity within a week. ### Price Elasticity Estimation Price elasticity measures how demand changes in response to price changes. If you raise your price by 10% and volume drops by 5%, your elasticity is -0.5 (inelastic -- the price increase is profitable). If you raise your price by 10% and volume drops by 15%, your elasticity is -1.5 (elastic -- the price increase loses revenue). The optimal price depends on your elasticity. For inelastic services (elasticity between 0 and -1), you should raise prices -- volume drops less than price increases, so revenue grows. For elastic services (elasticity below -1), you should lower prices -- volume gains more than offset the price decrease. ```python # -- Pricing Optimization ------------------------------------------ def estimate_price_elasticity( self, price_history: list[dict], ) -> dict: """Estimate price elasticity from historical price/volume data.

Offer a lower per-call price in exchange for a commitment to higher volume. The question is: how much discount should you offer at each volume tier? The answer depends on your marginal cost curve and your elasticity. A discount is profitable if the incremental volume it generates exceeds the revenue you lose on existing volume. Here is the analysis. ```python def optimize_volume_discounts( self, base_price: float, cost_per_call: float, current_tiers: list[dict], elasticity: float, ) -> list[dict]: """Optimize volume discount tiers. Args: base_price: Standard per-call price. cost_per_call: Your cost per call. current_tiers: List of dicts with 'min_volume', 'max_volume', 'discount_pct', and 'current_customers' keys. elasticity: Estimated price elasticity.

""" optimized_tiers = [] for tier in current_tiers: min_vol = tier["min_volume"] max_vol = tier.get("max_volume", min_vol * 10) current_discount = tier["discount_pct"] customers = tier.get("current_customers", 0) # Mid-volume for calculations mid_vol = (min_vol + max_vol) / 2 # Test discount levels from 0% to 50% best_discount = current_discount best_tier_profit = 0 for test_discount in range(0, 51): discounted_price = base_price * (1 - test_discount / 100) if discounted_price <= cost_per_call: continue # Expected customers at this discount price_ratio = discounted_price / base_price volume_multiplier = price_ratio ** elasticity expected_customers = max( customers * volume_multiplier, 0 ) tier_revenue = ( discounted_price * mid_vol * expected_customers ) tier_cost = cost_per_call * mid_vol * expected_customers tier_profit = tier_revenue - tier_cost if tier_profit > best_tier_profit: best_tier_profit = tier_profit best_discount = test_discount optimized_tiers.append({ "min_volume": min_vol, "max_volume": max_vol, "current_discount_pct": current_discount, "optimal_discount_pct": best_discount, "change": best_discount - current_discount, "discounted_price": round( base_price * (1 - best_discount / 100), 6 ), "expected_profit_improvement_pct": round( ( (best_tier_profit - ( (base_price * (1 - current_discount / 100) - cost_per_call) * mid_vol * customers )) / max( (base_price * (1 - current_discount / 100) - cost_per_call) * mid_vol * max(customers, 1), 0.01, ) ) * 100, 1, ), }) return optimized_tiers ``` ### A/B Testing Prices The most reliable way to measure price elasticity is to run a controlled experiment. In agent commerce, you can A/B test prices by creating two marketplace listings for the same service at different price points and measuring conversion and retention for each. The key constraint is sample size. You need enough transactions at each price point to reach statistical significance. For a service handling 1,000 calls per day, allocating a 10% sample to a test price (100 calls/day) gives you statistical significance within 5-7 days for a 10% price change. For a service handling 100 calls per day, you need 2-3 weeks. The implementation pattern is straightforward: create two service listings via the marketplace, route traffic between them based on a deterministic hash of the customer agent ID (so the same customer always sees the same price), and compare the revenue and retention outcomes after the test period. Use the `search_services` tool to verify both listings are live and the `get_service_ratings` tool to monitor satisfaction at each price point. --- ## Chapter 7: Competitive Intelligence ### Why Competitive Monitoring Is Revenue Analytics Revenue does not exist in a vacuum. Your revenue growth or decline is always relative to competitors. A 5% monthly revenue decline might be catastrophic if the market is growing at 10% (you are losing share) or acceptable if the entire market declined 15% (you are outperforming). Competitive intelligence is the external context that makes your internal revenue metrics meaningful. The GreenHelix marketplace provides two vectors for competitive intelligence: 1. **Marketplace search**: The `search_services` tool returns competitors' service listings with pricing, descriptions, and categories. Monitor this weekly to detect new entrants, price changes, and feature additions. 2. **Identity and reputation data**: The `get_agent_leaderboard` and `search_agents_by_metrics` tools show how you rank relative to competitors on volume, ratings, and trust. The `get_agent_reputation` tool provides detailed trust data for specific competitors. ### Building a Competitive Landscape ```python # -- Competitive Intelligence -------------------------------------- def get_competitive_landscape( self, service_category: str, your_service_id: str, ) -> dict: """Build a competitive landscape analysis for your service category.

If you are the first to enter a category at $0.010 per call and a competitor enters at $0.008, you will face pressure to lower your price. Track the rate of price convergence -- if competitor prices are moving toward yours, you have pricing power. If your price is moving toward competitors', they have it. **Pattern 2: Quality-price segmentation.** Markets naturally segment into quality tiers. A high-quality, high-reliability service at $0.015 per call can coexist with a budget alternative at $0.005 because they serve different customer segments. The danger zone is the middle: similar quality to the premium option at a price close to the budget option. Your competitive analysis should identify which tier you occupy and whether that position is defensible. **Pattern 3: Reputation moats.** Agent services with high trust scores and long track records retain customers better than new entrants with lower prices. The `get_agent_reputation` data quantifies this moat. If your trust score is 0.92 and the lowest-price competitor is at 0.71, many agent customers will pay the premium because their orchestrators weight trust in routing decisions. Monitor your reputation advantage and invest in maintaining it -- it is the closest thing to a switching cost in agent commerce. Track competitive data weekly. Store historical snapshots so you can see trends, not just the current state. The combination of competitive pricing trends and your own cohort retention data tells you whether you are gaining or losing market position. --- ## Chapter 8: Revenue Dashboard and Alerts ### From Analysis to Monitoring The previous seven chapters built the analytics: attribution, LTV, cohorts, churn prediction, pricing optimization, and competitive intelligence. This chapter turns those analytics into a live monitoring system using GreenHelix webhooks.

Register handlers for the events that matter most to revenue monitoring. ```python # -- Revenue Dashboard and Alerts ---------------------------------- def setup_revenue_alerts( self, webhook_url: str, config: Optional[dict] = None, ) -> dict: """Register webhooks for revenue-critical events. Sets up monitoring for payment completions, payment failures, usage thresholds, and budget events that signal revenue changes. Args: webhook_url: Your endpoint that receives webhook POSTs. config: Optional configuration overrides. """ alert_config = config or {} # Event categories to monitor revenue_events = [ # Payment events: track incoming revenue "payment.completed", "payment.failed", "payment.refunded", # Usage events: track consumption patterns "usage.threshold", "usage.spike", # Budget events: customer spending signals "budget.threshold", "budget.exhausted", # Subscription events: recurring revenue changes "subscription.created", "subscription.cancelled", "subscription.renewed", ] results = {} for event in revenue_events: try: result = self.register_webhook( url=webhook_url, events=[event], config=alert_config.get(event, {}), ) results[event] = { "status": "registered", "webhook_id": result.get("webhook_id"), } except Exception as e: results[event] = { "status": "failed", "error": str(e), } return { "webhook_url": webhook_url, "events_registered": sum( 1 for r in results.values() if r["status"] == "registered" ), "events_failed": sum( 1 for r in results.values() if r["status"] == "failed" ), "details": results, } ``` ### Key Metrics to Monitor A revenue dashboard for agent services should track these metrics, updated in real time from webhook events and polled analytics. **Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR).** For usage-based agent services, MRR is not a clean number like it is for subscription SaaS. Calculate it as the trailing 30-day revenue, updated daily. Track the MRR trend line, not the absolute number, because daily fluctuations in usage-based revenue are normal. **Average Revenue Per User (ARPU).** Total monthly revenue divided by the number of unique customer agents who made at least one call. ARPU tells you whether you are growing by adding customers (ARPU flat, MRR growing) or by extracting more from existing customers (ARPU growing, customer count flat). The first pattern is healthier for long-term growth; the second is more profitable in the short term but fragile. **Churn Rate.** The percentage of customers from 30 days ago who have not made a call in the last 7 days. This is a lagging indicator -- by the time churn shows up here, the customer has already left. That is why Chapter 5 builds a leading indicator (the churn risk score). The dashboard should show both: the lagging churn rate for historical accuracy and the churn risk distribution for forward-looking management. **LTV/CAC Ratio.** The ratio of customer lifetime value (from Chapter 3) to customer acquisition cost. If your LTV is $300 and your CAC is $50, the ratio is 6:1 -- a healthy, profitable business. Below 3:1, your acquisition economics are unsustainable. Below 1:1, you are paying more to acquire customers than they will ever generate in revenue. For agent services, CAC is often low (marketplace discovery is nearly free), which means even moderate LTV produces excellent ratios. But if you are investing in integrations, partnerships, or marketing to drive direct and referral channels, track the channel-specific CAC and LTV/CAC ratio. ### Bringing It All Together Here is the complete dashboard generation method that combines every metric from this guide into a single revenue report. ```python def generate_revenue_report( self, customer_agent_ids: list[str], service_category: str, your_service_id: str, lookback_days: int = 30, ) -> dict: """Generate a comprehensive revenue analytics report. Combines attribution, LTV, cohort, churn, and competitive data into a single dashboard payload. """ now = datetime.utcnow() start_date = (now - timedelta(days=lookback_days)).strftime( "%Y-%m-%d" ) end_date = now.strftime("%Y-%m-%d") # 1. Revenue attribution revenue = self.get_revenue_summary(start_date, end_date) # 2. Customer LTV histories = [] for cid in customer_agent_ids: try: history = self.get_customer_history(cid) histories.append(history) except Exception: continue ltv_data = self.calculate_ltv(histories) # 3.

It connects to three other guides in the GreenHelix ecosystem: - **The AI Agent FinOps Playbook (Product #6)** covers the cost side: per-agent wallets, budget caps, spend alerts, and cost attribution. Use FinOps data as an input to margin calculations in this guide. Your revenue per call minus your cost per call (from FinOps) is your margin per call. - **The Agent Testing and Observability Cookbook (Product #9)** covers monitoring infrastructure: tracing, health checks, and alerting pipelines. The revenue webhook handlers from this chapter integrate with the observability patterns from that guide. Route revenue alerts through the same alerting infrastructure as your operational alerts. - **Agent Negotiation Strategies (Product #14)** covers pricing tactics: auctions, BATNA calculation, and dynamic pricing. The pricing optimization in Chapter 6 of this guide produces the elasticity estimates and optimal price points that feed into the negotiation strategies. Use this guide to find the right price; use the Negotiation guide to implement the right pricing mechanism. ### Where to Start If you are reading this guide and your agent service is already live, here is the priority order: 1. **Revenue attribution** (Chapter 2). Takes 30 minutes to implement. Immediately tells you which services and channels drive your revenue. 2. **Churn risk scoring** (Chapter 5). Takes one hour. Identifies customers you are about to lose so you can intervene. 3. **LTV calculation** (Chapter 3). Takes 30 minutes once you have customer histories. Tells you how much each customer is worth and how much you should spend on retention. 4. **Cohort analysis** (Chapter 4). Takes one hour. Shows whether your business is improving or deteriorating over time. 5. **Competitive intelligence** (Chapter 7). Takes 30 minutes to set up initial monitoring. Gives external context to your internal metrics. 6. **Pricing optimization** (Chapter 6). Requires 2-4 weeks of data collection before you can estimate elasticity. Start the data collection now; optimize later. 7. **Revenue dashboard** (Chapter 8). Once you have all the above, wire them together with webhooks and a reporting function. The total implementation time is approximately 8-12 hours for a developer familiar with the GreenHelix API. The revenue insights start generating value immediately.
