# Dazza vs Zendesk AI agents.

Zendesk is the deeper platform for large support teams, with AI agents in every Suite plan that answer by messaging, email and voice in 80 languages, but each automated resolution beyond 5 or 10 an agent a month costs $1.50 to $2.00. A team of five with 1,000 AI conversations a month, 60% resolved, pays about $1,138 on Suite Team and $124 on Dazza Growth, both billed yearly.

- Support that spans voice, email and messaging in many languages.
- Teams that only want to pay for conversations the AI fully resolves.

### Dazza suits

- Small and mid-sized teams that want an AI agent without per-agent fees.
- AI that does jobs, such as bookings and returns, within rules checked in code.
- A monthly price you can predict, with every conversation up to the plan included.

## Where Zendesk is better.

If these matter most, Zendesk AI agents may be the right choice.

### Built for big support teams

Zendesk Suite is a full ticketing platform, with Enterprise plans for large organisations. Dazza’s inbox is simpler. Single sign-on is coming to Enterprise.

### 80 languages

By Zendesk’s account, its AI agents work in 80 languages at native fluency, on messaging, email and calls. Dazza replies in the customer’s language, and answers calls in ten set languages or follows the caller’s.

### Escalations are free

Zendesk only bills verified resolutions, so a conversation that reaches a person costs nothing extra. Dazza counts every conversation it replies to.

### A resolution allowance

Suite plans include 5 or 10 automated resolutions an agent a month. A big team with little AI volume may pay nothing extra for the AI.

## Switching from Zendesk AI agents.

Setup reads your site and drafts the agent. Most teams are live in an afternoon.

### Start from your web address

Sign up and give Dazza your website. It reads your pages, works out what the business does and drafts the agent. The trial is 14 days and 100 conversations, with no card.

### Import your Zendesk help centre

Paste your Zendesk help centre’s address in Knowledge, under Help centre. Dazza reads it through Zendesk’s own articles API and adds new articles on each check.

### Rebuild your AI agent’s procedures as workflows

Describe each job in plain words and Dazza drafts the workflow: the details to collect, the decisions, and whether the customer confirms or your team approves. On Growth, connect Stripe, Zapier or n8n over MCP.

### Test, then swap the snippet

Run saved tests and simulated customers against the draft, then publish. Replace Zendesk’s web widget with Dazza’s one line, and forward your support email to Dazza to answer email too.

### How much do Zendesk AI agents cost?

AI agents are included in every Suite plan, from $55 an agent a month billed yearly. Suite Team includes 5 automated resolutions an agent a month and Professional 10. After that, each one costs $1.50 bought in advance or $2.00 pay as you go.

### What is an automated resolution?

Zendesk’s billing unit for AI agents: a conversation the AI resolved without a person, checked by an AI model once the conversation ends. On messaging that’s 2 hours after the first message by default; on email, 72 hours. Escalated conversations aren’t counted.

### What do 1,000 AI conversations a month cost on Zendesk?

With five agents on Suite Team and 60% resolved: 5 × $55 = $275, then 600 resolutions less 25 included = 575 × $1.50 = $862.50, so $1,137.50 a month. Pay as you go, it’s $1,425. Dazza Growth is $124 billed yearly.

### Can Dazza import our Zendesk help centre?

Yes. Dazza reads Zendesk help centres through Zendesk’s public articles API and adds new articles on each check.

### Does Dazza replace Zendesk?

For many small teams, yes: Dazza includes the AI agent, a shared inbox and handover. Teams that rely on Zendesk’s ticketing, SLAs and reporting can keep it: on Growth and above, Dazza answers first and hands over into Zendesk as a ticket with the whole conversation, and your agents’ replies go back to the customer.
