How are Assists counted

Asa pricing is based on assists — only when we meaningfully help. You’re charged when Asa actually contributes to a shopper’s journey, not just replies. No handoffs, no filler — just real value, clearly counted.

What is an assist?

An assist is counted when a conversation ends in one of two ways:

  • Confirmed Assist – The shopper clearly indicates Asa was helpful (e.g. clicks “That helped” or takes a conversion action like Add to Cart).
  • Unconfirmed Assist – The shopper leaves without confirming help, but also without requesting more.

How an Assist is Counted

A conversation counts as an assist if:

  • The shopper confirms it was helpful by:
    • Clicking That helped 👍 quick reply.
    • Typing clear affirmation (e.g., "Thanks, that helps", "That solves it" etc.).
  • The shopper takes a high-intent action, such as:
    • Add to Cart, Buy Now, or Visit Product Page
  • The shopper leaves the conversation without asking for more help.

A conversation does not count as an assist if the shopper:

  • Clicks Get more help 👤 quick reply.
  • Asks for further assistance or requests a human

Assist Timeframe

Shoppers have 12 hours to return to a conversation and request more help. If no further assistance is needed within that window, it counts as a Unconfirmed Assist, ultimately counted towards assists.

💡

Note: You’re only billed for conversations where Asa provided a confirmed or unconfirmed assist. These apply only once at conversation level.

How Assist Status Tags Work

In your Inbox, each conversation is tagged based on how it ended:

  • Assited: The customer is satisfied with the response.
    • Confirmed Assist – The shopper clearly confirms the response was helpful (e.g. clicks That helped 👍 or takes a conversion action)
    • Unconfirmed Assist – The shopper leaves without asking for more help (within a 12-hour window, it’s counted as a helpful assist)
  • Unassisted: The shopper requests more help (e.g. clicks Get more help 👤 or asks for human support)
ℹ️

Shoppers can click “That helped 👍” or “Get more help 👤” multiple times during a conversation. The final assist status is based on the last quick reply used after Asa’s most recent response.
