Assumptions: 1 month = 4.33 weeks, 1 year = 52 weeks. The figures are an estimate for orientation.
How many people spend how much time on the task – and at what hourly rate.
What percentage of the time can AI save? 40–70% is often realistic.
You instantly see hours saved, euros saved, payback and first-year ROI.
A realistic business case makes the difference. Keep these points in mind:
Tasks are rarely 100% automated. Account for review and rework effort.
Setup, integration and training belong in the calculation – not just tool costs.
Does AI save time but lower quality? Factor in oversight and possible error costs.
The more often a task recurs, the faster the automation pays for itself.
The saved working time (people × hours × time saved) and the hourly rate give the euro saving. Ongoing and one-time costs are subtracted; the ROI relates the net benefit to the costs in the first year.
It depends heavily on the task. For clearly structured, recurring activities 40–70% is common; full automation is rare. When in doubt, calculate conservatively.
