Chat Support Automation ROI for Logistics Businesses

How much is manual chat support costing your logistics business? See the full ROI breakdown — including 884 hours/year, $29K in savings, and a < 30 days payback period.

The True Cost of Manual Chat Support

Every hour your logistics team spends on manual chat support is an hour they are not spending on strategic work that drives growth. At $38/hour and 20 hours per week, the labor cost alone exceeds $40K per year — before factoring in the cost of errors, rework, employee turnover, and the opportunities you miss while your team is buried in routine tasks.

AI-powered chat support automation changes the economics entirely. Instead of scaling costs linearly with volume, your logistics business can handle 1,200+ chat conversations per month with minimal human oversight. The result: a < 30 days payback period and compounding returns as your business grows. Here is the detailed breakdown.
