Methodology

Three value streams, each anchored to your actual operations.

Productivity hours recovered

Each module's hours-saved is the gap between your current operating time and greytHR's automated target.

Hard-dollar savings

Direct cash impact your CFO budgets.

Phased adoption

Year 1 is modelled in 3 phases, not flat from day one.

Industry profile

Each industry gets a transparent 6-factor profile. Override any input to see the math change.

Frequently asked questions

Most HRMS ROI calculators inflate the headline by assuming "all manual hours = cash saved". We don't. Productivity value is opportunity cost (time freed) — useful but not budget. Hard-dollar savings are the line your CFO actually budgets.
Productivity value = hours saved × loaded hourly rate. Hard-dollar savings are direct cash impact: payroll error correction, compliance penalty exposure reduced, and current HRMS spend eliminated.
The engine computes monthly subscription cost on Essential, Growth, and Premium for your configuration and recommends the most cost-effective option. Premium absolute price is never displayed.
Baselines come from HR ops surveys across SMB engagements. All defaults are overridable in Current operations.
Each industry has a 6-factor profile: compliance density, penalty risk, shifts, payroll complexity, attrition, and ESS query rate.
Add-ons add subscription cost and contribute hours saved and dollar savings (e.g. GeoMark+ dispute reduction). Premium bundles them.
Not modelled. Hardware is quoted separately.
Phase 1 (55%), Phase 2 (80%), Phase 3 (100%). Year 1 uses weighted average: (P1×3 + P2×3 + P3×6) ÷ 12.
Premium is custom-quoted. The calc still computes productivity and hard-dollar value.
Implementation cost, hardware, integrations, consulting, and statutory advisory. A 25% conservatism haircut is applied to hours saved.

Estimates are based on industry-typical operating benchmarks and your inputs. Actual results depend on implementation quality and adoption. All prices exclude applicable taxes.
