Common questions

How accurate is the estimate?
The calculator uses your specific inputs — ticket volume, handle time, hourly rate. The accuracy depends on how precisely you enter your numbers. The savings range assumes 60–70% automation efficacy, which is the industry average for L1 ticket resolution.
What counts as "automatable" L1 tickets?
Password resets, VPN access issues, account provisioning requests, software installation approvals, basic hardware swaps — anything with a clear decision tree and low contextual complexity. Your team knows this number better than any external benchmark.
What's the difference between AI Kickstart and Automation Build?
AI Kickstart ($7K) is a 4-week focused engagement that delivers working automations for your top 2-3 L1 ticket categories. Automation Build ($15K) is a more comprehensive engagement that covers a broader scope — including AIOps alert correlation, proposal automation, and cross-tool integration.
What does the PDF report include?
