Automation ROI Calculator
See what one repeated task costs a year, and what automation could give back.
This is an estimate of what the task costs now, which is the most automation could give back. It isn’t a forecast, and it leaves out what the automation costs to build and run.
Start with a task your team does by hand every week.
Pick one task. Time it for a week, or ask the person who does it. These are the ones we’re asked to automate most.
Lead Follow-Up Automation
Reading each enquiry, typing it into the CRM and chasing a reply.
Sales Automation
Drafting quotes by hand, then chasing them for approval.
CRM Automation
Entering the same customer details into a second system.
Customer Onboarding Automation
Setting up each new account and sending the welcome email.
Operations Automation
Passing bookings and orders between teams over chat.
Reporting Automation
Building the weekly numbers from several exports.
Business Process Automation
Walking an approval from one desk to the next.
Workflow Automation
Copying the same information from one app into another.
What your number includes, and what it leaves out.
It’s what the task takes today
The figure is the time and pay the task uses now. It isn’t a promise of savings.
It leaves out the automation’s own cost
Building and running an automation costs money for tools, setup and upkeep. Take that off before you compare.
Automation rarely takes all of it
Someone still checks the work. If automation handled half of it, that would free up 312 hours a year, worth $10,920 before the automation’s own costs.
