Customer Success teams have more data, automation and process than ever. Yet many have become better at managing customers at scale than understanding them at scale.

That loss of customer context weakens personalisation, customer value and ultimately retention.

Guy Nirpaz, founder of Perspective AI and author of Farm Don’t Hunt, joins us to explore how Customer Success can scale without turning every customer into a generic journey or playbook.

You will learn why customer context matters, where CSM judgement remains essential and how AI and CX agents could create more personalised Customer Success at scale.

We also discuss how the CSM role is changing and how AI can help teams become more relevant, commercially valuable and focused on customer outcomes.

Breakthrough SaaS Growth

Breakthrough SaaS Growth is about how SaaS companies keep customers, grow revenue and prove value in the AI era.

Hosted by Jason Noble in the UK and Jason Whitehead in the US, the show explores the commercial problems behind sustainable SaaS growth: retention, expansion, churn, customer value, Customer Success, GTM alignment and AI.

Some episodes are the two Jasons breaking down what they’re seeing in the market. Others feature SaaS founders, CEOs, CROs, Customer Success leaders and operators sharing what is actually working inside their businesses.

Expect practical conversations about why customers churn, how SaaS companies prove value, where expansion really starts and how AI is changing the way software is bought, used and valued.

No hype. No theory for theory’s sake.

Just practical thinking about how SaaS companies keep and grow customers.
