30%

Set conservatively. AI answers most lookups instantly, but some questions still need a human.

30%

Industry self-service resolution averages ~14% (Gartner); we cap this at 50%. Start low; visibility can raise questions before it reduces them.

An estimate based on the figures you enter, not a guarantee. Your results depend on your operation, client mix, and how your team adopts the tool. We’d rather show a conservative number you can trust than an inflated one.

How this is calculated

Every number is yours to change. Here’s exactly how the two savings drivers work. No hidden math.

Team time saved

monthly $ = hours spent looking things up × share AI eliminates × loaded labor cost

  • The “typical 12–60 hrs/month” anchor comes from Extensiv sales calls where operators described time on manual lookups and reporting. Source: Extensiv customer calls.
  • Under “Adjust assumptions,” the share-eliminated slider defaults to a conservative 30%.

Client self-service

monthly $ = client questions per month × share deflected × handle time × loaded labor cost

  • Covers the answers Extensiv AI supports today: order status, inventory, shipment ETAs. We ask you for your own volume and handle time rather than assume them.
  • The deflection slider defaults to 30% and caps at 50%. For context, Gartner found only ~14% of customer-service issues are fully resolved in self-service, a conservative floor, not a promise. Source: Gartner self-service survey.

Labor cost

  • The $30/hr default is a conservative fully-loaded rate for ops/admin staff, consistent with U.S. BLS compensation data. Adjust to your actual loaded cost. Source: U.S. BLS.

Hours & FTE

Hours reclaimed = team hours saved + client-question hours saved. Full-time equivalent assumes ~173 working hours per month.
