Selection advice
Keep the helpdesk and compare its own AI first
Yuma is an option for adding AI customer service to an existing setup, with integrations including Shopify, Gorgias and Zendesk. Teams already using Gorgias or Zendesk should compare their native AI with Yuma on the same customer requests. Include permitted order actions, human handoff and the extra subscription cost in that comparison.
Check what counts as a paid resolution
Yuma says it charges for requests fully resolved by AI; human intervention makes that request non-billable under this rule. Compare it with Siena using examples that matter to the store, such as a delivery inquiry or subscription change. Ask how reopened conversations and repeat contacts are counted, so an impressive automation rate does not obscure the actual bill.
Use annual examples to discuss realistic contract terms
Yuma publishes illustrative annual bundles: $14,400 for 12,000 resolutions, $40,000 for about 48,000, and $90,000 for about 120,000. These are upfront annual examples with a 12-month commitment, not guaranteed quotes for every store. Estimate normal and peak demand before asking for a tailored bundle, and confirm what happens when the allowance runs out.

Official connection guideYuma AI FAQs
Yuma AI FAQs address “What counts as a billable resolution in Yuma AI?” and “What happens when Yuma AI reaches its resolution allowance?”.
What counts as a billable resolution in Yuma AI?
Yuma charges for a ticket fully resolved without human involvement, once per ticket rather than once per action. A ticket containing several automated steps is therefore different from several separately resolved tickets.
What happens when Yuma AI reaches its resolution allowance?
The published terms distinguish annual bundles from monthly billing. Annual bundles pause when the allowance is exhausted and resume on renewal, while monthly billing can incur extra per-resolution charges. Buyers should confirm which arrangement appears in their order form.
Does monthly billing mean Yuma AI can be cancelled month to month?
No. Yuma’s pricing page states a 12-month commitment for every plan. Payment frequency and contract length are separate, so a monthly payment should not be interpreted as a one-month contract.
Are Yuma Sales AI, Social AI, and custom integrations included in support pricing?
Not all of them. Yuma lists Sales AI as a separate subscription, Social AI as an add-on, and custom integrations as an additional service. A support-automation quote should identify these separately when they are needed.

Thanks to Yuma, we are closing 30% of our tickets without any human interaction, with 70% to 80% of customers satisfied. It also allowed us to create advance auto pilots in order to make automatic changes in Shopify. It is saving us time daily and we are very happy with the results so far.
We've been consistently impressed with Yuma. The danger with using AI for CX is always hallucinations. Their approach of building bots for specific use cases and limiting the amount of knowledge the AI can ingest for any given situation has driven unbelievably high accuracy. Some of our bots are consistently hitting 98% quality, which I've never seen another AI tool deliver. CSAT results are the same as our full team, at 4.7+. Their support team is remarkable. Any and all requests or features we've asked for have been built and set up in weeks. The team is very communicative and very easy to reach via Slack and/or email. They are proactive, often bringing suggestions to our team on how to improve our customer experience. Run, don't walk towards working with them!
Our biggest concern with AI support was whether it could actually handle WISMO tickets accurately. That's where Yuma has been really impressive. Yuma has helped us automate a large portion of our order status inquiries without sacrificing the customer experience. Their approach is focused and practical. Instead of trying to answer everything, they build for specific use cases, which has led to much higher accuracy than we've seen with other AI tools. The team has also been great to work with. They're responsive, easy to reach, and quick to turn feedback into improvements. We've been able to move fast, test new ideas, and continuously improve the experience for both our customers and support team. Yuma is definitely worth a look.
