## How to calculate AI support ROI

### Use conservative deflection

Do not assume every chatbot answer removes a ticket. Count only questions that would otherwise reach support and that the bot answers correctly.

### Include review time

AI support still needs monitoring, docs updates, and escalation handling. Include that operational work when estimating savings.

### Measure avoided repeat work

The biggest ROI often comes from finding docs gaps. Fixing one missing setup answer can prevent the same ticket from appearing every week.

### FAQ

			  What is a realistic deflection rate?

It depends on docs quality and question mix. Start with a conservative estimate, then replace it with observed data.

			  Should ROI include customer experience?

Yes. Faster self-serve answers can reduce frustration even when a ticket would not have been expensive.
