About the calculator.
How does the ROI calculator work?
The calculator estimates time savings based on your current customer service volume, cost per hour and the percentage of interactions an AI agent can handle. It also factors in time-to-value (weeks to go live) and a deployment cost so you can see when you break even.
What percentage of interactions can an AI agent handle?
Typically 60–80% of routine interactions: order status, product questions, return requests and FAQs. Complex issues are escalated to your team. The default in the calculator is 70% — adjust to match your product complexity.
How accurate are the numbers?
The calculator gives directional estimates based on industry benchmarks. Your actual results will vary based on product complexity, customer expectations and how well the agent is trained. We're happy to work through more detailed numbers in a call.
What does an AI agent cost?
A Shopify AI agent starts from €2,500 for a single-purpose agent (e.g. order status + FAQ). A more comprehensive agent with multiple integrations starts from €4,000–€6,000. You always receive a fixed-price quote.
How long before it pays for itself?
Based on average customer service workloads in Dutch e-commerce, most AI agents reach ROI within 3–6 months. The calculator shows your specific payback timeline.
