What is repetitive work costing your business?

See the estimated value of employee time consumed by manual tasks, and how much capacity might be available to reclaim.

STEP 1 · IDENTIFY THE WORK

Which repetitive tasks take up your team’s time?

Pick familiar tasks and estimate the people and hours involved, or skip straight to a quick estimate. You can select tasks across several departments.

Your selected tasks (0)

Select a task above to begin. Your estimate updates as you go.

Enter time separately for each task. Avoid counting the same working hours twice. Tasks are opportunities to investigate, not promises of automation.

Your cost assumptions

Selected tasks determine total hours. Adjust the labor cost and weeks below.

$

Hourly wages plus employer taxes and benefits; estimate if unknown.

Use 48–50 if you want to exclude holiday, leave, or seasonal downtime.

Important: Reclaimed hours generally create employee capacity. Real cash savings require measurable cost avoidance, overtime reduction, or other validated economics. Software and implementation costs are not deducted here.

A time estimate tells you how much capacity may be tied up. It does not tell you whether the right next step is a simpler process, a system connection, automation, or AI. Bring the number to a free 20-minute conversation.
