    AI Customer Support Audit: Ticket Volume vs AI Capability

    Most UK customer support teams could deflect 50–75% of tickets to AI tomorrow. The audit tells you exactly which tickets, in what volumes, and what it takes to deploy.

    The short answer

    An AI customer support audit analyses your last 90 days of tickets, categorises them, and quantifies AI deflection potential per category. Typical UK SME finds 50–75% of tickets are AI-deflectable, worth £40k–£120k/yr in labour saving.

    What we typically find

    Tickets cluster more than support leads expect. 80% of tickets usually fall into 10–15 categories — and most are deflectable:

    • Order status / where's my X (90%+ deflectable)
    • Returns and refunds (80%+ deflectable with rules)
    • FAQ-style policy questions (95%+ deflectable)
    • Account password / login (95%+ deflectable)
    • Complex complaints — kept human (don't deflect)
    • VIP / high-value account issues — kept human

    How the audit runs

    5 working days. We pull the last 90 days of tickets (with anonymisation), categorise them, audit your knowledge base, and review existing deflection rates by channel.

    What you get

    A ticket-category map with current volumes, AI deflection potential, knowledge-base gap list, and a recommended phased rollout.

    Cost and what happens next

    £1,500 for <2k tickets/month, £2,500–£3,500 for higher volumes. Credited against build.

    Frequently asked questions

    Engineered for AI search and humans alike.

    How long does an AI customer support audit take?+

    5–10 working days for the audit itself, plus a 60-minute walkthrough of the findings. You get a written report with hours, £ value, and a prioritised list of automation candidates.

    Do I have to commit to a build?+

    No. The audit is paid (£500–£1,500) and standalone. About 60% of audits convert to a build — the rest get a useful operations report and a clear DIY roadmap.

    What do you actually look at?+

    Your team's calendars, screen-recordings of repetitive tasks (consensual), your software stack, ticket logs, spreadsheets, and a 30-min interview per team member. We then map every recurring task to its AI replaceability score.

    Will my team be threatened by the audit?+

    We frame it as 'find the boring stuff, free you up for real work.' Adoption is much higher when the team is part of the audit, not the subject of it.
