Example Predictions

Example 1: High-Risk Customer

Input:
{
    "CreditScore": 450,
    "Age": 35,
    "Balance": 0,
    "NumOfProducts": 1,
    "Tenure": 1,
    "HasCrCard": "No",
    "IsActiveMember": "No",
    "EstimatedSalary": 35000
}

Prediction:
- Churn Probability: 85%
- Confidence: High
- Key Risk Factors:
  1. Low Credit Score (450)
  2. Inactive Member
  3. No Credit Card
  4. Low Tenure

Example 2: Low-Risk Customer

Input:
{
    "CreditScore": 780,
    "Age": 45,
    "Balance": 120000,
    "NumOfProducts": 3,
    "Tenure": 8,
    "HasCrCard": "Yes",
    "IsActiveMember": "Yes",
    "EstimatedSalary": 95000
}

Prediction:
- Churn Probability: 15%
- Confidence: High
- Key Retention Factors:
  1. High Credit Score (780)
  2. Active Member
  3. Multiple Products
  4. Long Tenure

Example 3: Borderline Case

Input:
{
    "CreditScore": 650,
    "Age": 55,
    "Balance": 45000,

Input Features

The model accepts the following customer information:

• Credit Score (300-850)
• Gender (Male/Female)
• Age (18-100)
• Tenure (0-10 years)
