Comparing Yuma AI: how it works and what it costs

We can automate what Yuma can’t.

Yuma AI answers alone. Kim's AI answers too, and a trained CX specialist checks every reply it isn't sure about, before your customer sees it.

Yuma AI is an AI support agent built to resolve tickets without a human, priced per resolution on 12-month plans. Kim uses AI too, and adds Sentinels: trained CX specialists who review every answer the AI is less than ~90% sure about, before it's sent. Whether you're weighing Yuma AI alternatives or checking Yuma AI pricing, this page has both side by side.

“I used to write the triggers and knowledge myself, and kept asking AI to write them for me. With Kim, I rely on a human to do the hard work of training the AI.”

Yuma AI pricing, from Yuma's own page

What a resolution costs on Yuma AI, and on Kim.

Yuma AI prices per resolution, so your cost per resolution depends on the plan, and every plan is a 12-month commitment.

Source: yuma.ai/pricing, accessed 24 Sep 2026. Illustrative annual prices, paid upfront.

At every published Yuma tier, Kim costs less per resolution, and the human review is included.

What counts as resolved

What you pay for

$0.70 a resolution

Billed only after the customer closes the ticket and it stays closed for 3 days. A reopen within 3 days isn’t a resolution.

What’s included

The people

Sentinel review and ongoing AI training are in the price. Nothing is billed on top.

How hands-on we are

Up to 8 hours a day

Typical CSM support is ~1 hour a week; an account manager and engineer together, maybe 1–2 hours. In the first months a Kim Sentinel works on your AI up to 8 hours a day, so no mistake reaches a customer. Yuma doesn’t.

Questions support leads ask

Straight answers.

The seven questions we hear most from teams comparing Kim and Yuma AI.

Ask us the one we didn't answer

Yes, and that alone doesn’t set Kim apart. The difference is what happens before the answer is sent. Anything the AI is less than 90% sure about goes to a Sentinel first, so a human reviews it before the AI’s mistake reaches your customer. That’s the moat.

At every published Yuma tier, yes. Kim is $0.70 per resolution, against Yuma’s ~$1.20 to ~$0.75, with Sentinel review included and no annual plan to prepay.

No. Sentinel review and ongoing AI training are in the per-resolution price.

Then it was never a resolution. Kim only counts a ticket once the customer closes it and it stays closed for 3 days. If it reopens within 3 days, you aren’t charged, and Kim keeps working it.

Resolution quality, policy compliance, whether the actions the AI claimed actually happened (refunds, for example), brand risk, and whether high-risk cases were escalated. The report is emailed within 24 hours.

The audit runs on your helpdesk data, so you can see where your AI gets it wrong well before your renewal date. Switching doesn’t mean rebuilding your setup: a dedicated account manager runs onboarding.

Ecommerce brands handling 2,000+ tickets a month. Onboarding is managed for you, and 15% of your total volume can be taken over by the first week.

AI makes mistakes. Kim makes sure they never reach your customer.

Connect your helpdesk and we'll show you where your AI is getting it wrong: resolution quality, policy, refunds, brand risk and escalations. Report emailed within 24 hours.
