Chatbot ROI, calculated honestly.

Estimate what an AI support agent saves you each month. Three inputs, transparent math, no email required.

3,000

Tickets, chats, and emails your team handles across all channels.

50%

Quickchat AI customers average 80% once the knowledge base is connected. Start lower for a conservative business case.

$5

Fully-loaded agent cost divided by conversations handled. Industry averages run $4–8 for chat and email.

AI cost per resolved conversation$0.50

Quickchat AI's Enterprise rate, fixed in this calculator. Subscription plans often work out cheaper at volume. See how other vendors' published rates compare below.

Every $1 spent on the AI agent returns $9.00 in saved support cost in this scenario.

The same automation, priced by vendor

Monthly AI cost for your 1,500 automated conversations at each vendor's published per-resolution rate.

Quickchat AI$0.50/resolutionThis calculator$750
Intercom Fin$0.99/resolution$1,485
Zendesk AI Agents~$1.50/resolution$2,250

Published per-resolution rates as of June 2026; Zendesk is approximate and Decagon, Sierra, and Ada do not publish rates. Sources and the full pricing-model breakdown are in our AI agent pricing guide.

How the math works

The calculator uses your three inputs plus one published price, and nothing else. No hidden assumptions:

  • Conversations automated = monthly conversations × AI resolution rate

  • Gross savings = conversations automated × cost per human-handled conversation

  • AI spend = conversations automated × $0.50 (Quickchat AI's Enterprise per-resolution rate)

  • Net savings = gross savings − AI spend

The estimate is deliberately conservative: it only counts deflected-conversation cost. It ignores faster first response times, 24/7 coverage, multilingual support, and revenue from assisted sales — benefits that are real but harder to put a number on.

Frequently asked questions

It multiplies your monthly support conversations by the share an AI agent can resolve, values those conversations at your cost per human-handled ticket, then subtracts what the AI itself costs at Quickchat AI's published rate of $0.50 per resolved conversation. The result is net savings: gross deflection savings minus AI spend. The three inputs are adjustable, so you can model conservative and optimistic scenarios.
Quickchat AI customers average an 80% resolution rate once their knowledge base is connected and the agent has been tuned for a few weeks. Start your estimate at 40-50% for a conservative business case. Resolution rates depend on how repetitive your ticket mix is and how complete your documentation is.
Industry benchmarks for chat and email support typically run $4 to $8 per conversation when you account for fully-loaded agent salaries, management, and tooling. Phone support runs higher. To compute your own number, divide total monthly support cost by conversations handled.
The calculator uses Quickchat AI's published Enterprise rate of $0.50 per resolved conversation. For comparison, published per-resolution rates from other vendors in 2026: Intercom Fin $0.99, Zendesk AI Agents about $1.50, Salesforce Agentforce $2.00. Quickchat AI plans also start free, with paid subscription plans from $9/month that usually work out cheaper per conversation at volume.
No, deliberately. A no-code AI agent connected to existing docs typically launches in days without engineering work, so setup cost is marginal compared to ongoing per-conversation economics. If you are evaluating a custom-built chatbot instead, add development cost to the comparison.
