AI ROI calculator: what manual work is costing you, and what automation could save

Enter three numbers: team size, hours each person spends on repetitive tasks, and hourly cost. You get a conservative-to-high savings range in under a minute, with the formula shown so you can defend it.

We show a low case on purpose. Present that one to finance; it's the one that survives scrutiny.

Inputs

Everyone who spends time on this kind of work.

Data entry, copying between systems, chasing info, answering the same questions.

Salary plus benefits and overhead. Default: $45.

How we calculate it

people × weekly hours × 4.33 weeks × hourly cost = what the work costs per month. We then assume automation removes 35% (low), 55% (expected) or 75% (high) of it.
