Explore the possibilities.

Model the potential capacity a software investment could create. Change the assumptions to fit your business; the result is an estimate, not a promised cash saving.

The starting 60% efficiency is an illustrative assumption, not an observed project average. Include development, licence and relevant external costs in your investment assumption. Currency defaults are examples, not live exchange conversions.

Estimated productivity value: R1,170,000. Time capacity is not automatically a cash saving or additional revenue.

How the estimate works

Annual hours = team × repetitive hours per week × efficiency × 52. Annual productivity value = those hours × your hourly value. Return = (annual value − first-year investment) ÷ investment × 100. It assumes the same workload for 52 weeks; adoption and actual cash costs can change the outcome.

The original R144,000 default and R12,000/month reference were illustrations, not interchangeable offers. A managed service has its own scope and commitment. This calculator now asks for a total first-year assumption; only your written proposal establishes the price and included services.
