Run the numbers in 30 seconds. Built for APAC CEOs by someone who has paid these bills across five companies.
Most knowledge worker AI sessions cost S$2 to S$15. Use S$5 if you don't know.
Most AI sessions save 30 minutes to 3 hours of human work.
Loaded cost = salary + benefits + overhead, divided by working hours. Use S$60 if you don't know.
This is where most well-run businesses should sit by end of 2026. Worth doubling down.
Based on your current inputs, scaled to 12 months.
The ROI ratio is the most important number on this page. It tells you how many dollars of human time each S$1 of AI spend recovers. A ratio of 10 means every S$1 you spend on AI replaces S$10 of human work. That is the right way to think about AI economics in 2026.
Most APAC businesses I work with are running ratios between 8 and 25. That is healthy, not exceptional. The companies that will compound hardest in the next two years are the ones moving from 25 to 50, not the ones starting from zero.
This calculator gives you a directional estimate. The real number for your business depends on which workflows you have automated, your team's adoption rate, and what you have not measured yet. Most companies under-estimate cost and over-estimate time saved by 20 to 30 percent.
Three ways to move from estimate to action.
