Everyone whose week includes repetitive admin, including you.
What an hour of your team's time really costs, including super and overheads.
Where the hours go
Hours per person, per week. Rough is fine: we check the real numbers on the call.
Calling back, qualifying, sending the same first reply again and again.
Retyping the same details between inboxes, spreadsheets and systems.
Pulling numbers together and writing the same update every week.
Chasing quotes, documents, invoices and no-reply threads.
What slips through
Calls and enquiries that never get answered or followed up.
Your estimate

$46,000
A full build starting from $4,500 would pay for itself in about 5 weeks.
And around 312 enquiries a year would be answered instead of missed.

How it is worked out
Honest maths, shown in full.
No black box. This is exactly how your estimate is put together, step by step.
01
Add up the admin
The four sliders are added together, then multiplied by your team size. That is the repetitive work on the table each week.
02
Halve it
We assume automation takes over half of those hours. That is deliberately conservative: well-built systems often take on more.
03
Count 46 working weeks
A year of savings is counted across 46 working weeks, leaving room for leave, public holidays and quiet patches.
04
Value the hours
Reclaimed hours are multiplied by your average hourly cost, then rounded down to the nearest hundred dollars.
05
Frame the payback
Full AI automation projects start from $4,500. That starting figure is divided by the weekly value of reclaimed hours and rounded up to whole weeks.
06
Keep missed enquiries honest
Missed enquiries are counted across all 52 weeks and shown as enquiries answered, not dollars, because their value depends on your prices and margins. Bring that number to the call and we will work it out properly.
These results are estimates only, not a quote, a promise or a guarantee of results. They depend on the assumptions above and the numbers you put in, and actual outcomes depend on your business, your processes and your tools, as set out in our Terms of Use.
