arXiv:2604.08621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In consumer applications, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) has traditionally relied on the manual optimisation of static, rule-based messaging strategies. While adaptive and autonomous learning systems offer the promise of scalable personalisation, it remains unclear to what extent ``human-in-the-loop'' oversight is required to sustain performance uplift over time. This paper presents a longitudinal case study analysing a real-world consumer application that leverages agentic infrastructure to personalise marketing messaging for a large-scale user base over an 11-month period. We compare two distinct periods: an active phase where marketers directly curated content, audiences, and strategies -- followed immediately by a passive phase where agents operated autonomously from a fixed library of components. Our results demonstrate that whilst active human management generates the highest relative lift in engagement metrics, the autonomous agents successfully sustained a positive lift during the passive period. These findings suggest a symbiotic model where human intervention drives strategic initialisation and discovery, yet autonomous agents can ensure the scalable retention and preservation of performance gains.
