AI support ROI calculator
What could redirecting repetitive support conversations mean for your team? Enter your assumptions to explore the time and handling value involved.
This is a planning estimate based on the values you enter, not a guarantee of savings or resolution rate.
Your assumptions
All amounts are in USD. Start with your own numbers; no industry benchmarks are prefilled.
Your total support conversations in a typical month.
Your assumption, from 0 to 100. This is not a measured resolution rate.
Time your team currently spends handling one conversation.
Your hourly labor cost, including benefits and other employment costs.
Current published monthly terms. Agency is a legacy tier and is not available for self-serve purchase.
Your modeled month
Enter all four assumptions to see your estimate. Zero is a valid input.

- Not applicable (free plan)
Free includes 100 text answers per month. For this comparison, we model one text answer per redirected conversation; actual conversations may use several answers.
Handling value represents modeled labor capacity redirected, not revenue or a reduction in payroll. Your fixed support costs may remain the same.
How the estimate works
- Conversations redirected = monthly conversations × your expected AI percentage ÷ 100.
- Hours redirected = conversations redirected × minutes per conversation ÷ 60.
- Gross handling value = hours redirected × your loaded hourly cost.
- Net monthly value = gross handling value − monthly subscription cost.
- Paid plan ROI = net monthly value ÷ monthly subscription cost × 100. A zero-price plan has no ROI percentage.
Excluded: implementation time, taxes, add-ons, voice usage, action usage, additional usage beyond plan allowance, existing software/support fixed costs, and revenue/conversion effects. No savings or AI resolution rate is guaranteed.
