Overview

The Smart CSM Communication Hub is Fincelo’s internal alerting system for your Customer Success team. When a customer hits a usage threshold or an invoice goes overdue with no response, Fincelo notifies the responsible CSM on whatever tool they use — and escalates automatically if there’s no response.

What Triggers an Alert

Usage Threshold Alerts

Fired by the Revenue Anomaly Agent when a customer hits their contracted usage limit:

CSM Actions (from any channel)

When a CSM receives an alert, they can respond directly from Google Chat, Slack, Teams, or WhatsApp:
  • Acknowledge — pauses escalation timer
  • 📞 Log Call — records call, pauses escalation
  • 📅 Schedule Follow-up — creates task
  • ↩️ Reassign — transfers to another CSM
  • 💤 Snooze 24h — come back tomorrow
  • Mark Resolved — closes alert, stops all escalation

Thread Continuity

All updates for the same customer and issue stay in one thread — not separate messages. The CSM sees the full history without noise.

Anti-Spam

Fincelo enforces a cooldown between alerts for the same customer + type + CSM:
  • Default: 24 hours
  • Configurable per workspace (Settings → CSM Hub → Alert Cooldown)
