REPEAT USE DIAGNOSTIC
See where return drops.
Know why. Fix the right thing first.
£10,000 | 2 weeks
The fragile middle of adoption, that’s where the story is decided.
Week one looks fine. Sign-ups, first steps, even early log-ins… they all look healthy.
But then week four arrives. Usage thins. By week eight, the habit either sticks, or it slips.
This is where most teams feel it. The dashboards don’t explain it. The debates go in circles. Something’s off, but nobody can quite name it.
The Repeat-Use Diagnostic gives shape to that worry. In two weeks, we show where return breaks, why it happens, and which fixes will matter first.
One journey. One audience. One plan. Ready to run next sprint.

Choose this if:
Retention spikes early but slides after week one
People “use” the product but skip the meaningful actions
Renewal or upgrade is coming, and return is soft
Internal roll-out: early adopters stick, others drift back to old habits
You want clarity before investing in adoption work
Why Alterkind
We’re behavioural strategists. We work in the fragile middle of adoption, where week four and week eight decide the story.
We look past dashboards to the value moments, cues, and routines that make return worthwhile. And we keep it kind: no dark patterns, clear consent, easy reversibility.

FAQs
Do numbers move in two weeks, or just our understanding?
You leave with a ranked plan and owners. Numbers typically move in the next sprint once fixes are shipped.
How is this different from what our analytics team does?
Analytics tells you what happened. We explain why and what to do first. Think value moments, cues, recovery paths, manager routines all ranked by impact.
Why weeks 4/8/12?
They’re common habit windows that predict renewal, depth, and word-of-mouth. If you’re stable there, you’re stable later.
What if our events are messy or traffic is low?
We can use proxies and still see the shape of the pattern.
Will you run experiments?
This package delivers the map and plan. To run tests, add Experiment Ops (£8k/2 tests) or move into Adoption Sprint.
Does this work for internal roll-outs?
Yes. We include manager routines, simple scripts, and coverage targets alongside product prompts.
Is it compliant and brand-safe?
Yes. We avoid coercive patterns, require clear consent and reversibility, and can add an Ethical Review (1 week, £2k) if needed.

Genuinely blew us away. Full of ‘why didn’t we think of that?’ moments.
Katie Milioni, CEO of MyHabeats
