What you'll walk away with

Instant answers on the repeat questions. Your team only sees the genuinely hard tickets — with a 2-line AI summary attached.

The idea
80% of the questions you get are the same 20. An AI agent reads each new question, checks your help docs, and answers when it's confident. Unusual ones — refunds, complex troubleshooting, anything emotional — go to a human with a short summary attached.
The win: instant answers on the easy stuff; your team only sees the questions worth their time.

What it costs to run

No surprises — here is every tool this training uses, including the MCP connectors, and what it actually costs per month.

ToolMonthly costWhat it's for
Claude Pro or ChatGPT Plus
$20/mo Powers the agent
Tidio / Intercom Fin / Zendesk AI (existing)
$0-200/mo Where the agent lives

Typical spend: from $20/month — most owners start on the free tiers and upgrade only the one tool they use daily.

Realistic setup time: 2 hours to write the knowledge base and rules. 1 week of human-review-everything before flipping auto-reply.

A one-time setup, done at your own pace. After that it runs in minutes a day.
