ROI Calculator

Estimate the time AI could give back to your team.

What this is

A back-of-the-envelope view of the time AI could return to your team.

Pick a role, tell us how many people do that work, and how many hours a week you think AI could clear. We do the rest. Results update as you type.

These are directional estimates. The actual return depends on the workflow, the training, and the adoption. If a number looks too good to be true, it usually is. If it looks plausible, it usually is too.

Inputs

Tell us about the work.

Anyone whose week would change because of the AI workflow.

A conservative starting point is 3–8 hours.

How are you measuring cost?
$/ hr

Wages plus benefits, taxes, and overhead. About 1.25–1.4× base.

Optional assumptions

Default 52. Use 48–50 if you want to subtract PTO.

Monthly numbers use a 4.33 weeks-per-month multiplier internally.

Assumptions & formulas

Plain math, no black box.

Results are directional estimates. Real return depends on the workflow, the training, and how the team adopts the change. We use the formulas below.

  • Monthly hours saved = employees × hours saved per week × 4.33
  • Annual hours saved = employees × hours saved per week × weeks worked per year (default 52)
  • Monthly value saved = monthly hours saved × loaded hourly cost
  • Annual value saved = annual hours saved × loaded hourly cost
  • When a salary is entered: hourly cost = annual salary ÷ 2,080
  • 8-hour workdays per month = monthly hours saved ÷ 8
  • Full-time employees regained per year = annual hours saved ÷ 2,080
