AI Is Reducing Customer Support Costs by 68% — Here's What That Means for Logistics

According to a May 2025 benchmark from All About AI, AI-driven customer service reduces the cost per support ticket from $4.60 to $1.45 — a 68% drop in cost per interaction.

For logistics providers and 3PLs dealing with high email volumes, that translates into real, measurable savings.

The Real-World Math: 50,000 Emails = $158,000 in Savings

Let’s plug in the numbers for a typical mid-sized 3PL:

• Annual support volume: 50,000 emails
• Without AI: 50,000 × $4.60 = $230,000/year
• With Debales AI: 50,000 × $1.45 = $72,500/year

✅ Savings: $157,500 annually
