## 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

### How does this chatbot ROI calculator work?

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.

### What is a realistic AI resolution rate?

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.

### What does a human-handled support conversation cost?

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.

### What does the AI agent cost?

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.

### Does the calculator include implementation costs?

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.
