Questions people ask
How are the savings calculated?
For each process: volume per month × minutes per task × the share you mark as automatable, converted to hours and multiplied by your fully loaded hourly cost. Fully loaded means salary plus taxes, benefits, tooling and management overhead — usually 1.25 to 1.4 times base salary.
What counts as a realistic payback period?
Under six months is strong and easy to defend internally. Six to twelve months is normal for automations that touch several systems. Beyond twelve months, the scope is usually too broad — start with the single highest-volume process instead.
Why is there a monthly running cost?
AI automations call language models, which bill per token, and they need hosting, monitoring and periodic evaluation to stay accurate. Any estimate that shows only the build cost is hiding the part that recurs. Ours defaults to a platform baseline plus a per-item AI cost that varies by how much text each task involves.
Which process should we automate first?
The one with the highest volume and the most repetitive decision-making, not the one that annoys people most. High-volume, low-variance work — ticket triage, invoice extraction, CRM updates — pays back fastest and produces the training data that makes the next automation easier.
Is this estimate a quote?
No. It is a planning figure derived from typical engagements. Real scope depends on your systems, data quality and compliance requirements. Use the button above to send us your numbers and we will come back with an actual quote.
