Hours Saved Calculator

Two sliders and your annual recoverable time in your currency - what manual reporting actually costs and a one-time engagement payback.

Most teams do not know what their manual reporting actually costs in rupees per year. Move two sliders - your team, your hours, see recoverable time and a one-time engagement payback. Nothing leaves your browser until you choose to send it.

Why we built this

Negotiate against a number, not a feeling.

The biggest lever in pricing a one-time Excel build is not the build cost - it is the recurring cost the build eliminates. A ₹35K engagement sounds expensive next to a freelancer's rate card. It pays back in months when you look at the annual recoverable time. The calculator surfaces the second framing on your numbers, before any conversation with us.

The number is conservative on purpose. Loaded cost excludes the cost of errors that survive into the report your CFO signs - which is the subject of the free free audit. In a real engagement the payback is usually faster.
