How the math works

Assumptions

  • Baseline: every contact handled by a fully-loaded human agent (wages + benefits + tools + overhead).
  • Teleperson scenario: the deflection % share is handled by the AI agent; the remainder is handled by humans at the same fully-loaded cost.
  • Platform cost: the selected plan's monthly subscription, taken from the live pricing table.
  • Overage: AI conversations above the plan cap are billed at that plan's per-1,000 overage rate (Agent $99/k, Starter $79/k, Growth $59/k, Scale $39/k).
  • Not modeled here: one-time setup ($129.99), optional consulting hours, and additional contact-center integrations. Speak with our team for a full TCO.
  • Numbers are estimates. Real savings depend on intent mix, channel, integrations, and the share of contacts your policies actually allow self-service to close.
