Zerve Upgrade Genome — From Product Behavior to Commercial Opportunity

What if the strongest upgrade signal isn't an upgrade event—but the behavior that happens before it?

Zerve Upgrade Genome transforms 408,878 real Zerve events across 4,771 users into an interpretable behavioral intelligence system that identifies users demonstrating observable commercial intent.

Instead of equating high usage with commercial value, the project discovers a behavioral genome built from depth, product breadth, workflow complexity, product dependency, and credit behavior.

The resulting Opportunity Score delivers:

31.81× lift in the top 1%
9.58× lift in the top 5%
7.98× lift in the top 10%

The top 10% captures 80% of all observable commercial-intent users.

The strongest product-specific signal is breadth: users engaging with 5+ product families show an 18.82× lift over baseline.

To prevent leakage, I performed strict temporal validation using only behavior before the first commercial signal. The top 10% still achieves a 4.79× lift, with 96% of commercial-intent users showing measurable pre-intent behavior.

The system goes beyond prediction: it provides behavioral states, sequence analysis, statistical evidence, robustness testing, and an actionable commercial opportunity playbook.

Because definitive upgrade ground truth is unavailable, commercial intent is conservatively defined using multiple independent commercial signals. Results are observational—not causal.
