Decision tool
AI automation calculator
Enter the cost and shape of one process. You will get a modelled annual cost, a simple payback threshold and a recommendation for the right implementation type.
hours × hourly cost × 52 × addressable share
The result uses only the values you enter and Syntalith's published entry prices. It uses no industry benchmark or data from another company.
Reading the result
Does the calculator provide a quote?
No. It models your inputs against published entry prices. A fixed quote follows only after the integrations, exceptions, permissions and acceptance measure have been defined.Why might the result start with process rules?
A custom build does not always pay back. If the addressable work costs less than the entry price, or most cases follow a different path, simplify and document the process first.Does payback include licences and maintenance?
No. Simple payback divides the entry price by the annual cost of the share entered by the user. A proposal later includes models, hosting, maintenance and human review time.Which processes require an agent?
Automation follows a path written in advance. An agent becomes a candidate when the next step depends on the case, its history and tool results. Consequential actions can still require a person's approval.
Check the result against the real process
On the free scan, an engineer checks the assumptions, exceptions, data sources and boundaries. You receive a written recommendation and price level within 2 business days.
- A 30-minute call with the engineer who would lead the work.
- A review of the processes that cost you the most time and money.
- A written summary of what to automate first and the likely cost range.
Times are shown in your own time zone. We work with clients across time zones.
The scan chooses one process to assess, and within 2 business days you receive a recommendation, including when a simpler route is the better fit.
