How this is calculated
The whole formula, in the open.
Nothing here is a black box. Two things are worked out separately and then added — support cost the agent takes off your desk, and revenue it adds on top. A support tool only ever gives you the first. Every figure in them is yours, published, or an assumption you can change.
Support savings
your monthly support tickets
your rate of tickets resolved without a personStarts at 41%, the share of repetitive tickets we publish as resolved before they reach a person.
your cost per ticketYour monthly support cost divided by those tickets, or the figure you set under Advanced settings.
Monthly support savings
Added sales
your monthly visitors
your chat engagement rateStarts at 2% — the one figure here with no BuyScout® number behind it. Replace it with your own.
Chat conversations
your conversion rate × your order value
the combined lift(1 + 10% – 30%) × (1 + 15% – 25%) − 1. The two compound rather than add.
Additional revenue
- Monthly value
- = support savings + additional revenue
- Annual value
- = that same figure across twelve months
Questions
About this calculator
It is an estimate built from your numbers and our published results — not a forecast. Treat it as a way to size the opportunity before you spend time on a trial, not as a figure to put in a budget.
Your result could be higher: More of your visitors start a chat than the low rate assumed here. Your tickets are simple enough to close without a person. You sell considered purchases, where one unanswered question stalls checkout. Or your peak months run heavier than the average you entered. Your result could be lower: Your store already converts well above its category. Your tickets need human judgement — damage, disputes, one-off exceptions. Much of your traffic arrives with no intent to buy. Or you already run a chat tool, so some of this value is on your books.
By your monthly visitor count, exactly as the pricing page does it. Plans are priced on traffic, so this calculator reads the same bands rather than keeping a second list that could drift out of step.
Because the results we publish are ranges. The low end of this calculator assumes the bottom of every range at once, and the high end assumes they all go your way. Your store will land somewhere between the two, and we would rather show you both ends than pick one and call it a prediction.
It is the share of repetitive support tickets we publish for the AI Store Agent — questions it answers before they ever reach a person. We deliberately do not use the higher 'conversations resolved autonomously' figure from our customer stories: that measures something narrower and would overstate what you would actually save.
No, and that is deliberate. Order tracking, returns, and troubleshooting all reduce support load, and post-purchase support brings shoppers back — none of it is modelled here. The estimate is narrower than what the agent actually does for a store.
