What does manual work cost you?

Enter what you know. We keep three things apart on screen so you always see what is yours and what is a guess: the numbers you gave, the assumptions you can change, and the scenarios that follow from them.

  • We never guarantee savings or revenue.
  • Change any assumption; the result follows.
  • No email needed.

How it is calculated

  • Observed: numbers you typed in about your own business. We do not check them and nobody sees them unless you ask for the report.
  • Assumption: the hourly cost and the improvement shares are estimates you can change. The defaults are deliberately modest and are not measured results from other companies.
  • Calculated: arithmetic on your numbers. Annual repetitive hours = people x hours per week x working weeks. Annual cost = hours x hourly cost.
  • Hypothetical: what the saving would be if the stated share of that time were automated. It is a scenario, not a forecast, and not a promise.
  • Enquiry handling is shown on its own and is not added to the repetitive-task saving unless you say it is separate, so the same hour is never counted twice.
  • Recovered opportunities are illustrative revenue at risk, shown separately from savings and never added to them.
