Is your AI agent spend actually paying off?

Coding agents show up as a line item on an invoice long before they show up as a win in your delivery numbers. The honest way to judge them is the same way you'd judge any investment: value created minus cost. This calculator turns saved hours into money at your blended developer rate, subtracts the agent/token/subscription spend, and hands you a net monthly ROI, a cost per hour saved, and a simple payback on setup - all from numbers you can edit.

Saved-hours estimates are the shakiest input, so treat them as a hypothesis to verify, not a given. Ground them in real delivery signal with our cycle time calculator and DORA metrics calculator, and check that faster isn't quietly meaning worse with the AI code contribution calculator.

For the thinking behind measuring agents rather than trusting the demo, read our guides on measuring AI coding tools and how to measure developer productivity.

Frequently asked questions

For each team we take devs × hours saved per dev per week × weeks per month to get monthly hours saved, multiply by your blended hourly cost to get the value of that time, then subtract the monthly agent/token/subscription spend. Net ROI is the sum across all teams. Every input is your own editable estimate.

Stop guessing what your agents are worth

FeatureFactory helps you plan, build and measure AI web development - so agent ROI comes from tracked cycle time, throughput and quality instead of a spreadsheet estimate. The feature factory that measures what it ships.
