What was said
What this says
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Amara Obi raised a quarter-on-quarter fall in active users on 17 Sep 2026. Kirsty Ingham said two people left over summer, one a hands-on user, and agreed to re-engage four or five colleagues.
What happened: Amara opened with the drop in active users. Kirsty linked it to two leavers over summer, one of them the main hands-on user.
Customer view: Kirsty did not dispute the numbers and called the drop a possible wake-up call. She named four or five people in operations and contracts who could realistically start using the brain.
Commercial: This is a renewal risk from a lost key user rather than a complaint about value. Re-engagement now protects the subscription.
Watch: Kirsty said early next week was tight but doable. The evidence does not show a booked session or a date for it.

Transcript
- Amara ObiHi Kirsty, thanks for finding time for this. How's the week been?
- Kirsty InghamAll right, bit hectic, you know. End of quarter stuff. What did you want to catch up about?
- Amara ObiSo I was looking at the usage numbers this morning, and I wanted to check in with you. Active users have dropped quite a bit quarter on quarter. I'm a bit concerned about where we're at.
- Kirsty InghamRight, okay. Has something changed on your end?
- Amara ObiWell, that's what I want to understand from you. Here's what the numbers say: we've gone from a few people using it regularly to much less activity. Has something happened with your team?
- Kirsty InghamAh, yeah. We lost a couple of people over summer. One of them was quite hands-on with the system. That'd be it.
- Amara ObiThat makes sense. So those two people, were they the main users?
- Kirsty InghamOne of them was, yeah. The other was more support. But honestly, it might have been a wake-up call. I think we need to re-engage the team with it.
- Amara ObiI'm glad you're thinking about it that way. Who do you think we should involve to get some momentum back? Who else has access?
- Kirsty InghamA few people in operations haven't really dug in yet. And one in our contracts team. Maybe four or five who could realistically start using it.
- Amara ObiPerfect. Here's what I'd like to do. Let's run a short session with whoever's keen, maybe early next week, just to show them what the brain can do for their specific work. Who's the best person to coordinate on your side?
- Kirsty InghamThat'd be me. Early next week is tight but doable.
- Amara ObiLet me send over a couple of slots and you can pick what fits. In the meantime I'll pull together some examples of what your contract team could query to save them time. Sound good?
- Kirsty InghamYeah, that sounds good. Yeah, let's do that.
- Amara ObiBrilliant. I'll get that over to you by end of day tomorrow. And I'll send a message with the session times. Let's speak again next week to plan it properly?
- Kirsty InghamYes, perfect. Thanks, Amara.
- Amara ObiCheers. Speak soon.
