What are manual tasks costing you?

Move the sliders to match your business. You get the hours your team loses to admin, the revenue lost to slow follow-up, and how fast a system pays for itself. No signup. Conservative assumptions.

Start from your industry

Time: admin done by hand

Data entry, scheduling, invoicing, chasing updates, building reports.

Wage plus benefits, payroll tax and overhead. Owner time counts too.

Revenue: leads that slip through

Missed calls, slow replies and quotes nobody followed up.

Not sure? Count last month's unreturned calls and quotes with no second touch.

Payback

An illustrative build budget for the payback math. Not a quote. Your build is scoped and priced from the Audit.

Where the hours go

Six tasks that eat a service business's week.

Each one maps to a system. The Audit measures yours instead of guessing.

Methodology

How the numbers are built.

Every assumption sits on the conservative side. The Audit replaces them with your real numbers.

Time recovered

people × hours per week × 48 working weeks × 60% automated × hourly cost

Revenue recovered

inquiries per month × 12 × share missed × 40% recaptured × close rate × job value

Gross revenue, before job costs.

Payback

planning budget ÷ (annual impact ÷ 12)

FAQ

Calculator, answered.

How accurate is this?

It's a planning estimate. We assume 60% of manual hours can be automated and that 40% of missed leads come back once every inquiry gets an instant reply and follow-up. The Audit measures your actual workflows and replaces these assumptions.

Is the planning budget your price?

No. It only drives the payback math. Builds are scoped and priced from your Audit findings, and the $999 Audit is credited toward the build if you proceed.

Does automation replace my staff?

No. It removes the manual, repetitive tasks so the same team handles more work. 10x output, not 10x headcount.

What if my numbers are small?

Then start with one system. Most owners start where the calculator points: the bigger of time or revenue.
