What your repetitive tasks really cost

Five minutes, one table, and you have the number. List what you redo every week, enter how often and how long, and you will know what it costs per year. Then which task deserves to be automated first, which is almost never the one you think.

Loaded hourly cost. Use what an hour really costs the company: gross salary plus employer contributions. With the net salary, the cost of tasks is heavily underestimated.

Stability. A task is stable if its rules have not changed for six months. That is the condition for an automation to last: an unstable task produces a system that needs constant repair.

Your data stays with you. Everything is calculated in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server, and rows are only kept in local storage to survive a reload.

You have the number. Now what? The free audit means doing this log with you on your real processes, checking what can be removed rather than automated, and telling you where to start. Thirty minutes, no commitment, no slide deck.
