What do unanswered WhatsApp messages cost you?
A simple calculator for business owners in the UAE and Lebanon: how much revenue slips away every month when messages wait hours for a reply. Your numbers stay in your browser.
In short
Most enquiries on WhatsApp come when the shop is busy or closed, and a customer who waits more than a few minutes usually messages the next business. Put in how many messages you get, how many go unanswered or get a late reply, how many enquiries normally turn into a sale, and what a customer is worth. The result is a monthly estimate, not a promise, and it is the first number worth knowing before you fix the problem with a person, a rota or an AI employee.
Your numbers
What to do with the result
Answer in minutes, not hours.
Whatever you choose, the fix is the same: a reply inside the first few minutes, 24 hours a day, in the language the customer wrote in.
Three ways to get there.
A dedicated person on a rota, a rule-based auto-reply for the common questions, or an AI employee that answers like a person and hands over to you when it should. Each has a cost; this page only shows the cost of doing nothing.
Count before you buy.
Run this calculator with your real numbers, then compare the result with the monthly cost of each option. If the gap is small, a rota is enough. If it is large, automation pays for itself quickly.
Questions,
answered
Where do the default numbers come from?+
They are placeholders chosen to make the maths visible, not industry statistics. Replace them with your own: your phone shows how many messages you get, your team knows how many wait, and your sales records show the conversion rate and customer value.
Is my data saved?+
No. The calculation runs in your browser and nothing is sent to Point One or anyone else. Refreshing the page resets the numbers.
What does an AI employee actually do about this?+
It replies within seconds on WhatsApp and Instagram, in Arabic and English, answers the questions your business gets every day, collects the customer's details, and passes the conversation to a person when it should. How it works is on our AI employee page.
