Run-cost calculator
What does your bot estate really cost to run?
Eight numbers you probably already have. The calculator adds what the license quote leaves out: fixing bots, and the work they hand back to people.
Pre-filled with example values. Replace them with your own; nothing you type leaves this page.

An estimate from your inputs, not a quote and not a savings promise.
No hidden assumptions
Every number above comes from these lines. Change any input and you can follow it through.
break_fix = breaks × hours_per_fix × coe_rate × 12 exceptions = exceptions × (minutes ÷ 60) × ops_rate × 12 total = license_and_infra + break_fix + exceptions per_bot = total ÷ production_bots outside = (break_fix + exceptions) ÷ total
Not included: change and governance work (re-testing, access reviews, audit evidence). If you track it, add it to the license line.
Turn the estimate into a fact base
The Bot Estate Audit builds a fragility score and run-cost model from your own logs, in two weeks. If the exception line is your biggest, a 2-week Sprint shows how much an agent can clear.
