Agentic workflow savings
Hours and cost an agent gives back when it takes over a share of a repetitive task. Every number below is yours to change; the defaults are assumptions, and the result is an estimate.
Your assumptions
Default 250, an assumption. Count every instance of the task, e.g. invoices coded, leads qualified, reports assembled.
- min
Default 12 min, an assumption. Hands-on time only; waiting time is not counted.
Default 4, an assumption. Used for the per-person view; the total hours come from the task count.
- $
Default $38, an assumption. Salary plus overhead per hour; knowledge-work roles often land at $30–$80.
- %
Default 60%, an assumption. Agents rarely take 100%: exceptions and reviews stay with people. 50–80% is typical for well-bounded tasks.
This task takes about 50 h a week. Handing 60% of it to an agent frees an estimated 30 h a week, roughly $59,280 a year.

›How this is calculated
- hours per week = tasks per week × minutes per task ÷ 60
- hours saved per week = hours per week × automation share
- hours saved per month = weekly × 52 ÷ 12; per year = weekly × 52
- cost saved = hours saved × hourly cost
- FTE = hours saved per week ÷ 40
