The real cost of not automating
Before we talk about what AI automation costs, consider what you are already paying. Every missed call, slow response, or forgotten follow-up is costing you real money. Studies show that responding to a lead within 5 minutes makes you 21 times more likely to close the deal. Most businesses take hours or even days.
A full-time receptionist costs $35,000 to $45,000 per year. A sales development rep runs $50,000 to $70,000. These people work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, and they need breaks, vacations, and benefits. AI works 24/7/365 for a fraction of that cost.
What determines your price
AI automation pricing is not one-size-fits-all. Several factors influence the cost:
- Number of integrations. Connecting to 2 tools costs less than connecting to 10. Each integration requires configuration and testing.
- Complexity of workflows. Simple appointment booking is different from a multi-step lead qualification pipeline with branching logic.
- Volume of interactions. A business handling 100 customer conversations per month has different needs than one handling 5,000.
- Voice AI requirements. Adding phone-based AI agents increases the scope and cost compared to text-only automation.
- Custom training. The more specialized your business, the more training the AI needs to represent your brand accurately.

Comparing AI to hiring
Think about what you would pay a human employee to do the same tasks. A dedicated customer service rep costs at minimum $3,000 per month and works limited hours. AI automation starts at a fraction of that cost and works around the clock. It never calls in sick. It never has a bad day. It handles 50 conversations as easily as 5.
The math is straightforward. If your AI books just 2 to 3 extra appointments per month that convert to paying customers, it pays for itself. Most businesses see far more than that.
