Propensity Modeling
Scoring how likely each customer is to take an action, such as buying or churning.
By Brandon Mina·CEO, BrandPilot AI·Updated November 2026
Short answer
Propensity modeling is a predictive technique that scores how likely each customer is to take a specific action, such as buying, upgrading, or churning. Models use behavioral, demographic, and transactional data to assign probabilities. Marketers use these scores to target high-likelihood prospects, suppress unlikely ones, and allocate budget more efficiently.
