Want this ROI analysis saved? Useful for getting buy-in on automation projects.
This calculates ROI for one task. The full structural read maps 23 patterns across your entire operation - including which tasks to automate, which to delegate, and which to eliminate entirely.
How do you calculate the ROI of automating a task with AI?
Automation ROI compares what a task costs to do by hand with what it costs to automate. This calculator multiplies your weekly hours by 52 and your fully loaded hourly cost, then subtracts setup and monthly tool costs to show year 1 net, 3-year savings, and how many months until the setup cost pays back.
How do I read my AI agent ROI grade?
ROI is year 1 net savings divided by year 1 automation cost, which is setup plus tools. 500% or more grades No-Brainer, 200% or more Strong ROI, 50% or more Moderate ROI, and lower Marginal. The verdict also says whether break-even lands within 3 months, within a year, or not inside 3 years.
