New approach empowers companies to scale their AI and automation investments in line with evolving customer and employee needs
Zendesk hae introduced their market-leading AI Dynamic Pricing Plan, a flexible pricing and usage approach designed to make AI in service more accessible and adaptable for businesses. This allows companies to adjust their investment between human agents and AI agents, providing the flexibility needed to be responsive as customer needs, business goals and market demands evolve.
Tom Eggemeier, CEO of Zendesk, said,
“In just a few years, there will be a massive shift in the amount of service that is automated – we predict 100% of interactions will involve AI. With this in mind, we want to give our customers the freedom and flexibility to adopt AI and automation at a pace that best suits their business needs,”
“The AI Dynamic Pricing Plan allows our customers to adjust as they learn and refine their approach to service without being constrained to one setup.”
Keith Dawson, Director of Research, Customer Experience, ISG Software Research, said,
Zendesk’s model–the first of its kind in the market–offers companies flexibility in adopting AI for customer service by allowing them to adapt and scale their approach over time. Unlike traditional setups that can restrict adaptability, Zendesk lets businesses use human agents or AI agents, or a combination of both, and shift investments as needs evolve. This approach enables CX leaders to tailor their AI adoption based on current and future requirements of the business.
“The advent of AI and automation has transformed the traditional pricing model, as companies embrace outcome-based pricing that shows a direct link between AI and ROI,”
“However, as businesses adopt AI, they want to be able to adjust without the potential risk of extra costs or complex commitments. Zendesk’s pricing model aligns with the market trend of companies seeking a way to explore AI and automation with the added flexibility.”
Following the successful launch of Outcome-Based Pricing, in which businesses pay only for the real results delivered by AI agents, the AI Dynamic Pricing Plan offers a flexible allocation approach. It allows companies to optimize their spending across different pricing models—such as outcome-based and seat-based pricing—ensuring they see a strong return on their AI investments.
With this new approach, Zendesk reaffirms its commitment to being a trusted partner for businesses as they expand their use of AI, removing the constraints of traditional setups. By allowing customers to tailor their approach, Zendesk aims to make AI a practical and accessible choice for companies focused on enhancing both customer and employee service strategies.
At Zendesk, we’re on a mission to power exceptional service for every person on the planet. As the industry leader in customer experiences, we help businesses bring together the best of AI agents, workflow automation, and human agents for their customers and employees. With our software and expertise, businesses deliver service that increases customer loyalty and drives revenue at a reduced cost.
