AI ROI Calculator

How many hours a week is your business losing to work AI can do?

Toggle the tasks that eat your week, adjust anything that doesn't match your reality, and see a conservative estimate of the hours and revenue you could get back. Every number is yours to change — and none of it is a promise.

1. What's eating your week?

Check what applies. Drag to match your real hours — the presets are deliberately low.

2. Put a dollar on the time

What does an hour of this work cost you, loaded? Use a staff wage, or your own time if it's you.

These are estimates from what you entered — not a promise. On a free 30-minute call, we'll check them against your real numbers.

Why the numbers look conservative: because honest ones should.

Anyone can build a calculator that spits out a scary number. This one skews low on purpose — modest hour presets, and it only credits you a fraction of missed calls, not all of them. If the estimate still looks worth a conversation, that's the point. Nothing I build fails silently, and that includes the math on this page.

How it's figured

No hidden multipliers. Here's the actual math.

Hours back per week is simply the hours you entered for each task you checked, added up. Real AI systems don't erase a task entirely — there's always some review and exception-handling — so the tool assumes you keep a slice of that time and only counts the realistic majority as recovered.

Value of that time is those recovered hours times the hourly cost you entered, shown as a monthly range so it doesn't pretend to a precision it doesn't have.

Recovered revenue is the optional part, and it's deliberately cautious:

  • It starts from the calls you're missing each week.
  • It assumes you'd realistically catch only part of them with an always-on system — not every one.
  • It applies your close rate and your average job value, not inflated ones.
  • The result is shown as a range, and it's labeled "potential" — because it's the piece most sensitive to your inputs.

Change any number and everything updates. That's the honest version of a sales tool: one you can argue with. When we talk, we'll replace these estimates with your actual data — which is the only version that matters.

Let's find out what's real.

Thirty minutes, no cost, no pressure. Bring the numbers you just entered and we'll pressure-test them together — then I'll tell you honestly what's worth automating first, and what it's worth. Even if the answer is "not yet."
