AI Sprint · Return on time
Most teams can't see what manual, repetitive work is costing them until they put a number on it. Move the inputs below and the figure updates as you go. Then read what the number leaves out, because that is usually where the larger value sits.
Tier one · the defensible floor
Time recovered
$11,700
recovered per year, at the conservative end of your selected range
That is the equivalent of 3.9 full work weeks or roughly 0.1 additional headcount of capacity, without hiring.
These figures reflect time only. They do not count faster decisions, fewer missed follow-ups, or reduced rework, which are often worth more than the hours saved. Hour ranges are conservative starting estimates, validated against each participant's own baseline in the Sprint, not assumed.
Tier two · where the real money is
The hours from Tier one do not disappear. They move. A buyer who stops chasing data spends that time negotiating a better contract. An engineer who stops rebuilding the same report spends it preventing the next failure.
This is where the real money is, and you are the one who can size it for your operation. We will not put a number on it, because the number depends on what your people do with the time they get back.
Tier three · the largest, least predictable
One quality escape caught before it ships. One warranty issue spotted early. One recall avoided.
These are the biggest dollars on this page and the least predictable, so we do not model them. You already know what one of these is worth in your business. We name the category and leave the figure to you.
The AI Sprint is a six-week cohort where three people from your company build AI workflows on their real work, the kind that close the gap this calculator measures. They start asking Copilot one-off questions and finish with something that runs without them. Founding cohort is forming now, $10,000 per company.
