Statistics
E-commerce statistics 2026
78%
According to Eurostat (2025), 78% of EU internet users bought goods or services online.
According to the European Commission (2026), customer service is the most common use of AI among EU small and medium-sized companies that already use it: 47%.
The team gets back about 45 hours of work a month, or 6 working days, and the company €18,892 a year. We count after the time a person spends checking and after the model cost.
800 × 4 min = 53.3 h × €34.90 = €1,861 a month. With the system, a person checks the output in 15% of the old time (€279) and the model costs €8. That leaves €287. The saving is €1,574 a month, so €3,000 pays back in 1.9 months.
Assumptions: 4 minutes per order and checking in 15% of the old time are our assumptions. €34.90 an hour is the EU average hourly labour cost for 2025 according to Eurostat, for companies with 10 or more employees. Model cost: Claude Sonnet 5.5, about 3,000 + 500 tokens per message, at the ECB rate of 1.1205 USD per euro on 22 October 2026.

From €3,000 net, paid once. After the 5-day test the build takes 2 to 6 weeks. You get a fixed price before the contract: 50% on signing and 50% after acceptance on your own orders.
Does this work with our BaseLinker?
First we check the rules, actions and state of the data in your account. We agree the scope of the integration before we quote.
When does it not pay off?
Below 130 orders a month the payback takes more than a year. Then it is better to start with ChatGPT or Claude for the team, from €1,150 net.
What do we need to prepare?
Test access to the account or an export, 20 to 100 examples from recent weeks and the rules you use to decide today.
