- Monitor customer performance metrics and proactively drive actions that improve activation, engagement, and revenue outcomes
- Build a classification rubric and prioritization model based on projected revenue potential and speed to scale for the accounts in your portfolio
- Determine when accounts are ready to transition into a long-term growth or strategic account management model

Our take
Plaid builds infrastructure that allows consumers to interact with their bank account on the web through a number of third-party applications, like Venmo, Robinhood, Coinbase, Acorns and LendingClub.
Plaid has integrated with over 12,000 financial institutions in the US, Canada, the UK and Europe. And about a quarter of people living in North America with bank accounts have linked with Plaid through at least one of the hundreds of apps that leverage Plaid’s application program interfaces (APIs).
The platform allows companies to create financial services applications without having to hire their own team of engineers to build out a tool that connects apps to its users’ bank accounts. This is very valuable in a world where there are increasing number of fintechs, so the demand for Plaid's services are only going to grow.
