Most subscription revenue isn't lost to churn. It's lost to silence.
A card fails, Stripe retries on a fixed schedule, the retry fails too, and the subscription quietly lapses. No alert. No conversation. Just revenue that should have stayed.
Fixed retry windows miss real behaviour
Stripe's default logic retries on a generic schedule, regardless of why the card failed or when the customer is actually likely to have funds available.
Recovery emails are generic, if sent at all
Most founders never see the failure. The ones who do rarely have time to write a thoughtful follow-up that actually gets a card updated.
The loss compounds, silently
3–8% of MRR is the typical range lost to unrecovered failed payments — invisible in a dashboard that only shows what was billed, not what was missed.
From failed charge to recovered revenue, automatically
You start with a CSV — no integration required to see what's recoverable.
Export your failed payments
Download the last 30 days of failed charges directly from your Stripe dashboard. No API key needed yet.
We model the recoverable share
Our engine analyses failure reasons, card types, and timing patterns to estimate what's realistically recoverable.
You see the number first
A free recovery estimate, with no commitment. Decide if it's worth connecting before you connect anything.
Go live, on your terms
If it's worth pursuing, connect a Stripe restricted key — read failed events and trigger retries only. Revoke anytime.
You shouldn't have to trust us before we've earned it
That's why RecoverAI doesn't ask for live account access on day one. You start with an export. You see real numbers. Only once you've decided it's worth pursuing do we talk about a connection — and even then, on the narrowest possible terms.
"The same model trusted by Stripe-native tools like QuickBooks and FreshBooks: a restricted key that can read and retry, and nothing more."
-
No live access required to start
Your first recovery estimate comes from a manual CSV export — zero integration risk.
-
Restricted-key only, when you're ready
Read failed events and trigger retries. Can't move funds, see bank details, or cancel subscriptions.
-
Revoke in one click
Disconnect anytime from your own Stripe dashboard. We never hold a copy of your credentials.
I'm building RecoverAI after 14 years building enterprise web systems — most recently inside a workflow automation platform, watching how often "automatic" billing quietly isn't. This is an early beta: a small number of founders, real Stripe data, honest feedback. If you're losing revenue to failed payments and want to know exactly how much, I'd like to show you.
See what failed payments are actually costing you
Share your email and I'll send over a simple, secure way to share a CSV export — no Stripe access required to get your free recovery estimate.
No spam. No auto-billing. No live account access until you say so.
