Frequently Asked Questions

How is the human staff cost calculated?

Human staff cost includes base take-home salary, employer PF/ESIC contributions, recruitment/training overhead, office hardware/headsets, and paid leave allowances across Indian cities.

Does an AI assistant completely replace human staff?

No. AI voice agents and WhatsApp bots handle 80-90% of routine, repetitive inquiries (FAQs, table bookings, clinic appointment scheduling, order tracking, and lead qualification) 24/7. When complex or high-touch situations arise, the AI seamlessly transfers the customer to your human team with full context.

How does AI handle peak call surges during festivals or sales?

Unlike human staff who can only handle one phone call or 2-3 chats at a time, AgentIQ voice agents and chatbots feature unlimited concurrency. 50 customers can call or message simultaneously without waiting on hold.

How fast does an AI assistant pay for itself?

Most Indian SMBs see positive ROI within 14 to 21 days simply from captured after-hours leads and eliminated missed customer calls during lunch hours, evenings, and weekends.
