How the numbers work
A grounded estimate, not a sales number
The model is deliberately conservative. It only counts the engineering capacity you reclaim, not the harder-to-pin-down upside like revenue from reaching the market sooner. Here is exactly what goes into it.
Your engineering reality
We start from your team size, the fully-loaded annual cost per engineer, and the share of capacity lost to maintenance, manual work, and technical debt. That gives the real cost of the friction you live with today.
What a focused engagement reclaims
Each kind of work, modernization, a new build, or automation, reclaims a different, evidence-based share of that lost capacity. We apply that share rather than assuming you get all of it back.
Savings, payback, and return
Reclaimed capacity becomes annual savings. Against your estimated investment, that gives a payback period and a three-year ROI, plus the equivalent number of full-time engineers freed.
These figures are an estimate for planning, not a quote. The full breakdown we send shows the assumptions in detail, and a short call turns them into numbers grounded in your own systems.
Questions? We have answers.
Frequently asked
It's a planning estimate, built to be conservative rather than flattering. It counts only the engineering capacity you reclaim and ignores softer upside like earlier revenue. The full breakdown we email shows every assumption, and a short call tightens the numbers against your actual systems.
The share of your engineers’ time that goes to maintenance, firefighting, manual release steps, and working around technical debt instead of building things that move the business. Teams carrying older systems often sit between 25 and 45 percent.
Fully-loaded means salary plus benefits, tooling, overhead, and management, not just take-home pay. Using the real cost of an engineer is what makes the savings figure meaningful rather than theoretical.
No. Your headline numbers appear the moment you finish the three steps. We only ask for an email if you want the detailed breakdown, with assumptions and a tailored set of next steps, sent to you.
Nothing automatic. If the numbers look worth a conversation, you can book a call and a senior engineer will walk through them against your real systems and where the fastest payback sits. No pressure, no junior salesperson.
