For fiber & broadband operators
Construction is done; take rate is the number. Roughly half of homes passed never subscribe, deployment software stops at the curb, engagement platforms run campaigns, and nobody owns the person deciding, scheduling, and being home when the truck arrives. Thread puts one guide on every serviceable address.
verified against OSS and billing
Illustrative market. An address turns green on a fresh read, install complete in the OSS, account active in billing. Never on a promise at the door.
The gap
Take rate is stuck. The capital went into construction; the return only shows up when an address bills. Every unconverted passing is buried capex.
Truck rolls that miss. A scheduled install nobody's home for burns a crew slot and pushes the connect out weeks. Confirmations, reminders, and reschedules are the difference.
Order-to-connect days. Every day between the order and billing-active is subscriber revenue deferred, and another chance for the cable incumbent's win-back offer to land.
How the motion runs
Every serviceable address enrolls as its segment goes lit, pre-registration interest first where you have it. Consent attested before the first touch.
The guide works the household from decision to order to install: answers "is my address really covered," books the slot, confirms the date, reschedules before the truck rolls, not after.
Done claims are read from your systems, install complete in the OSS, account active in billing. Never "the resident said the tech came."
The address flips billing-active and the outcome closes. The take-rate number moves, the one the build was underwritten on.
Native to your world
Fiber loses subscribers between “serviceable” and “online”, the install never gets booked, the router never comes up. The guide carries every address through it, and the network itself confirms the subscriber is live.
More of your world
Installs are the front door. The same guides save movers before the disconnect sticks and close upgrade cohorts, with the network itself confirming every outcome.
What you're buying
Guides, long-lived resident agents, one per account, each with its own memory and a single goal it pursues across text, email, and voice.
Motions, the harness over the lifecycle: it holds the goal, the context, and the exit criteria at every stage, and reads your systems to close outcomes.
Voice Studio, design the voice agent beside the guide: persona, guardrails, knowledge, a phone number that answers as your brand.
Workflow builder, routing and segmentation: reads each account's state and engages the right guide at the right moment.

The floor
Outreach to households is heavily regulated, and enforcement actions name vendors. Thread's floor is enforced in the runtime, consent before the first text, STOP honored instantly, quiet hours in the household's timezone, which makes it a selection criterion, not fine print.
Add your own rules on top. The floor never comes off.
