// Free ROI calculator

How much does a repetitive task cost you?

Enter the time spent, the monthly volume and the hourly cost: the calculator works out the annual cost of the process and the gain from automation, with assumptions you set. Free, no sign-up.

Pick a repetitive task (data entry, checks, reconciliation, reporting) and enter your own figures.

Assumptions, to adjust

The hourly cost, the errors and the automatable share are starting assumptions: replace them with yours. The share that can really be automated is confirmed during scoping.

// What this assessment measures

Three figures are enough, three assumptions refine them

Before automating, you need to know what the task costs today. This calculator only does arithmetic on your own figures: no gain rate is imposed, the automatable share is an assumption you set, and only a scoping phase can confirm it.

  • Time per occurrenceThe minutes spent on each run: data entry, checks, reconciliation, reporting.
  • Occurrences per monthHow many times the task is done each month, all staff combined.
  • Loaded hourly costThe cost of one hour of work, charges included, for the people involved.
  • Errors and automatable shareOptional: the share of occurrences with an error, their average cost, and the share automation could remove.

// How to read your result

The calculation, no black box

Annual cost = time per occurrence × occurrences per month × 12 × hourly cost, plus errors (occurrences with an error × average cost of an error). Annual gain = annual cost × automatable share. The result also shows the project budget below which the investment would pay for itself in under 12 months with your assumptions.

// Frequently asked questions

Automation ROI: your questions

How is the ROI of an automation calculated here?

By multiplying the time of each run by the annual volume and the hourly cost, then adding the cost of errors. The gain is the share of that cost you estimate can be automated. No external gain rate is used.

Which automatable share should I choose?

The calculator starts at 50%, a simple starting value with no industry reference. Use a cautious assumption and compare several values: scoping confirms the share that can really be automated, and a prototype proves it on your data.

Does the calculation include the cost of the project?

No: it works out the current cost and the possible annual gain. It does show the budget below which a project would pay for itself in under 12 months with your assumptions.

Are my figures stored?

The calculation runs in your browser. Your figures are only sent if you then request a report or a personal review.
