What the result shows
The possible monthly cost difference and how long the one-off setup cost could take to recover if the entered work is actually replaced.
Ecommerce Automation vs Agency Cost Calculator
Compare your current cost with automation
Include only agency work, software, and staff hours the new option would genuinely replace. Do not include work or software that would remain after the switch.
Possible monthly cost reduction
$8,575
The $5,000 setup cost could pay back in about 0.6 months, but only if the new option removes every current cost entered.
- Current cost each month
- $9,375
- Staff time included in current cost
- $2,475
- Possible cost reduction each year
- $102,900
Decide whether the switch deserves a closer test.
How it is calculated
Add agency retainers, current software, and the staff cost of manual reporting. Subtract the proposed monthly automation cost.
How to use it
Use the payback period to decide whether a controlled trial is worthwhile. Check output quality, oversight, transition risk, and the work that still needs a person.
What this result leaves out
This compares cost only. It does not value expertise, service quality, revenue impact, risk, or the time needed to switch. It is not a recommendation to replace a person or agency.
