What would a voice AI agent be worth to you?
Two levers: staff time on calls an agent can handle, and revenue from calls you miss today — minus what the AI costs to run. Results update as you type, and the link carries your numbers.

Everything that rings — answered and missed.
Talk time per call.
Loaded cost: wage + benefits + overhead.
FAQs, bookings, order status, routing.
Today these go to voicemail.
Busy lines, hold drop-offs, lunch.
Average revenue from a converted lead: a job, a patient, a closed deal.
Not every caller stays on the line — 85–95% is typical.
Share of captured calls worth a lead.
Telephony + speech + model, all-in.

How we calculate
- Missed calls = after-hours calls + business-hours calls × missed rate.
- Staff time saved = answered calls × automatable share × handle time × hourly cost.
- Recovered revenue = missed calls × capture rate × lead rate × value per lead.
- AI running cost = (automated + recovered calls) × handle time × AI cost per minute.
- Net = savings + revenue − AI cost. Simple payback = your budget ÷ monthly net (no discounting).
