Contact details stay in the lead pipeline and are never included in the AI interpretation request.
A model Finance can review.
Every number keeps its meaning. Savings are not presented as ROI, investment is not hidden inside TCO, and the output always exposes the assumptions it used.
Visible assumptions
Capture rates, labor burden and exclusions remain in view.

Modeled gross benefit
At 30% capture, the model estimates MX$1,740,960 in annual gross benefit against a MX$5,803,200 baseline TCO.
Positive first-year return
MX$1,080,960 in modeled net benefit, with 163.8% ROI and 4.5 months estimated payback.
Visible assumptions
- 35% labor burden on top of salary
- Initial 12-month horizon

Formula · BITS-ROI-2026.1
Baseline TCO = loaded annual payroll + tools. Gross benefit = baseline TCO × scenario rate. Investment = implementation + annual service. Net benefit = gross benefit − investment. ROI = net benefit ÷ investment. Payback = investment ÷ monthly gross benefit.

Questions about the model
Does the calculator replace a quote?
No. It is a directional estimate for structuring questions and comparing scenarios. A quote requires technical discovery, scope, SLAs, dependencies and cost validation.
Why is ROI unavailable when investment is zero?
ROI divides net benefit by investment. Without a recorded investment that ratio does not exist, so the model shows potential savings and projected TCO only.
What does artificial intelligence do?
It only interprets metrics that have already been calculated. Formulas, scenarios and projections are deterministic. AI never receives a name, email, phone number or company, and a fallback reading is available if the service is offline.
How is labor burden calculated?
Version 2026.1 adds 35% to salary to represent benefits and labor burden. The assumption is visible and should be replaced with your actual organizational rate before budget approval.
