Question 1

How is the ROI calculated?

Accepted Answer

Each active user generates productivity value worth a percentage of their salary per year. The return on your AI rollout is your active users (your adoption rate times your licenses) multiplied by that per-user value. Adjust adoption, productivity, salary, or licenses to model your own situation.

Question 2

How does Configurato fit in?

Accepted Answer

This calculator shows the ROI of your AI rollout from your own numbers. Configurato is how you improve that ROI: it gives you visibility into who is and is not using AI, so you can drive adoption and capture more of the value the calculator shows.

Question 3

What does break-even mean here?

Accepted Answer

Break-even is the minimum number of active users whose productivity value covers your total annual license spend. Below it, the licenses cost more than they return. Above it, every additional active user adds net value.

Question 4

Is adoption measured against licenses or total headcount?

Accepted Answer

Against licenses. You can only actively use a seat you hold, so the adoption rate is the share of purchased licenses that are actively used. If you have more employees than licenses, that is a separate expansion opportunity.

Question 5

Where do the default numbers come from?

Accepted Answer

The calculator starts at 20% adoption and a 5% productivity gain per active user. These are adjustable starting points, so replace them with your own figures.

Question 6

What happens to the numbers I enter?

Accepted Answer

The calculation runs in your browser. We receive your inputs when you share your work email to see your results, so we can send you a copy and follow up.
