From Insights to Impact

Executive Summary

HappyDoc, a healthcare documentation platform, was losing ground to competitors despite having a solid product. By partnering with BeHeard to implement strategic in-app customer intercepts and deep conversation analysis, HappyDoc uncovered critical insights that transformed their product roadmap. Within just three months, they achieved a 32% increase in retention and a 47% improvement in win rate against competitors.

The Challenge

HappyDoc faced a critical inflection point that threatened their market position:

Rising Customer Churn

Monthly churn had been steadily increasing over six months, with customers citing "missing features" as their primary reason for leaving.

Losing Competitive Deals

Win rate against key competitors had declined significantly, but the product team lacked clarity on which features were dealbreakers.

Misaligned Product Roadmap

Engineering resources were being invested in features that customers weren't actually requesting or valuing.

Our Solution

BeHeard implemented a comprehensive customer intelligence system that provided real-time insights directly from users:

Strategic In-App Intercepts

We deployed intelligent conversation triggers at key moments in the user journey:

Exit Intent Detection: Engaged users showing signs of frustration or abandonment
Feature Dead-Ends: Captured feedback when users searched for non-existent features
Competitive Research Moments: Identified when users were evaluating alternatives
Power User Touchpoints: Gathered advanced feature requests from highly engaged users

Deep Conversation Analysis

Our AI-powered system went beyond simple surveys:

Natural conversational flow that encouraged detailed feedback
Dynamic follow-up questions based on user responses
Sentiment analysis to identify emotional pain points
Automatic categorization and prioritization of feature requests

Actionable Intelligence Dashboard

Real-time visualization of customer needs and pain points
Competitive feature gap analysis
ROI projections for potential features
Direct quotes and context for product team decisions

Key Discoveries

Through thousands of customer conversations, BeHeard uncovered game-changing insights:

Integration Was Everything

"We discovered that 73% of churning customers weren't leaving for advanced features—they needed better integration with their existing tools. This was never on our radar before."

Mobile Experience Gap

"Competitors were winning deals primarily due to superior mobile experiences. Our mobile app was an afterthought, but customers saw it as essential."

Workflow Automation

"Power users desperately wanted workflow automation, willing to pay 3x more for plans that included it. We were leaving money on the table."

It's not just about collecting feedback—it's about truly understanding the 'why' behind every customer decision.
