Three sliders — team size, loaded hourly rate, and hours a week spent on manual work. The number that comes back is what the grind costs you a year. No email, no gate, and the share link carries your numbers with it.
The math behind the automation ROI calculator is deliberately simple: team size × hours a week on manual work × loaded rate, annualized. A 22-person team spending 8 hours a week at $65 an hour is $594,880 a year in payroll going to the grind.
What the calculator can't know is which of those hours automation can actually recover — that depends on how the work flows through your systems and your people.
That's what the operations audit is for: one week inside your operation, your top three leaks quantified against the real workflow, and a build roadmap ranked by ROI. $4,500, credited toward the first build — and if it doesn't surface savings worth more than its cost, you don't pay.
And if you'd rather have the building done for you month after month, that's the fractional AI partner.
A short conversation to confirm there's a real bottleneck worth a week of work — then we book the audit.
