Estimate the capacity a work redesign could put back into the business.
Start with transparent assumptions. Then test them against the work, controls, and accountable human judgment in your organization before making an investment decision.
AI workforce ROI calculator
Estimate a gross capacity scenario from inputs you can review; validate the work before making a decision.
Start with the roles or functions where repeatable load is plausible, not the entire workforce by default.

Start with the operating case, not the technology headline
External research can be a useful context signal. It cannot tell you which work, controls, or human decisions matter inside your business.
McKinsey
Describes broad economic potential. It is not a forecast for an individual company.

How the illustrative capacity model works
The model uses only the inputs and published assessment tiers shown on this page. It is deliberately simple enough to review.
Assumptions you can review
The default percentages are labeled scenarios, not external benchmarks or forecasts. Change them to test sensitivity.
Capacity-Based Approach
We measure opportunity in terms of freed capacity, not headcount reduction, focusing on what your people can accomplish.
Your cost basis
Enter the fully-loaded cost definition your finance team recognizes. The calculator does not infer salary, benefits, or overhead for you.
Important Note: This calculator provides an illustrative gross-capacity scenario. A full The AI Workforce Assessment tests the work, controls, assumptions, realization costs, and implementation route for your organization.
Experienced judgment, applied directly. A decision scope built for the mid-market.
