Statistics
Marketing, data and AI: statistics 2026
−95%
According to Anthropic (2025), AI cuts the time needed to compile information from reports by an estimated 95%.
According to the European Commission (2026), 42% of EU small and medium-sized companies already use AI or automated work management systems, mostly in a limited way.
The team gets back about 51 hours of work a month, or 6 working days, and the company €21,334 a year. We count after the time a person spends checking and after the model cost.
30 × 120 min = 60 h × €34.90 = €2,094 a month. With the system, a person checks the output in 15% of the old time (€314) and the model costs €2. That leaves €316. The saving is €1,778 a month, so €3,000 pays back in 1.7 months.
Assumptions: 2 hours to collect the data and prepare a campaign report and checking in 15% of the old time are our assumptions. €34.90 an hour is the EU average hourly labour cost for 2025 according to Eurostat, for companies with 10 or more employees. Model cost: checking the commentary in our reporting system (about €0.0002) plus compiling the data (Claude Sonnet 5.5, about 30,000 + 2,000 tokens), at the ECB rate of 1.1205 USD per euro on 22 October 2026.

It builds the report from ERP and CRM exports and the controlling file, and it gives the source next to every figure. A figure without a source stops the commentary before publication. Preparing a checked commentary costs about €0.0002.

Questions
Where should a marketing team start with AI?
With the report that is built every week from the same sources. In the review we count how many hours it takes.
How much does marketing report automation cost?
From €3,000 net, paid once. After the 5-day test the build takes 2 to 6 weeks. You get a fixed price before the contract: 50% on signing and 50% after acceptance on your own reports.
Is ChatGPT enough?
ChatGPT will write a post or an ad variant, and that is a good first step, from €1,150 net for the team. A report from several dashboards with figures that match needs a system connected to the sources.
When does it not pay off?
Below 5 reports a month the payback takes more than a year. Then it is better to start with ChatGPT or Claude for the team, from €1,150 net, with training on your own tasks.
What do we need to prepare?
The last 3 campaign reports, access to the ad dashboards and analytics, and the budget sheet.
