Optimize one install, or maximize the network.
A single quote can look reasonable and still lose millions once it's deployed across the fleet. Set the levers to your situation — systems at scale, labor displaced, contract horizon — then edit each platform. The comparison, the diverging ROI, and the enterprise verdict all move in real time.
How many cells this platform choice repeats across every plant.
Fully-loaded monthly cost of the manual labor each system replaces.
The window the ROI-at-scale figure is measured over.
The platforms on the table
Rename any column, edit its capital and monthly cost, and set whether it locks you into a term. Monthly cost is what drives the enterprise math.
Impact of platform selection across the network
1-year ROI at scale — 20 systems
Cumulative labor value captured, net of platform cost, across the fleet.
The right lens isn't the sticker price of a single install. It's total cost of ownership weighed against return on investment, compounded across every system on your automation roadmap.
How the math works. Monthly equivalent is each platform's fully-loaded cost per system per month. Relative to labor = monthly ÷ labor displaced. ROI at scale = (labor displaced − monthly) × 12 × systems × horizon — the cumulative labor value captured net of platform cost. Capital deployed is the total system value put on the floor across the fleet; a service model carries it as monthly, not upfront CapEx.
