The tools
What you can calculate
ROI calculators, cost estimators and practical tools for AI programs.
Cost estimator
Token and infrastructure spend projected from your workload shapes.
Readiness scoring
The four-dimension assessment, interactive.
Capacity planning
Throughput and scaling estimates for AI workloads.
What's inside
Numbers before commitments
Each tool encodes assumptions from real deployments — and shows them, so you can challenge every input.
ROI
The business case, pressure-tested
Enter volumes, handle times and costs; the calculator models automation scenarios with honest ramp curves and sensitivity ranges — outputs ready for a finance conversation.
- Scenario ranges, not single-point promises
- Ramp curves from real deployments
- Exportable summary for stakeholders

FAQ
Common questions
How accurate are the estimates?
As good as their assumptions — which are shown and editable. They're calibrated against real engagements and best used for ranges and comparisons, not contracts.
Do you see our inputs?
No — calculations run in your browser. Nothing is stored unless you explicitly export or share.
Can we get help interpreting results?
Yes — a working session on your numbers is a common first engagement.
