Free AI Litmus calculator

Calculate ROI for AI literacy for free.

Use the same planning logic behind AI Litmus to estimate the value pool for AI literacy. The calculator shows the opportunity. The baseline shows the real number by validating workflows, readiness and change over time.

Formula Projected Productivity Value

Productive hours unlocked/week x hourly cost x adoption readiness x realisation factor x working weeks/year, minus programme and AI tool costs.

Step 1

Start with the numbers you know.

Team size40 people Average annual salary / CTC₹9L Total programme investment₹2.5L AI tool license / person / month₹1,500 Team needing paid tools70% Working weeks per year48 weeks

Projected output

Your projected value becomes stronger when the baseline validates the inputs.

Projected annual productivity value₹0

Projected ROI0%

Annual AI tool cost₹0

Total investment₹0

Net value after programme₹0

Step 2

Now tune the value drivers AI Litmus validates in the baseline.

The big lever is not how long people keep an AI tab open. The business case comes from useful hours unlocked, whether people actually adopt the tools, and how much of that time becomes measurable work value.

Productive hours unlocked/person/week5.5hTime saved or output capacity created through drafting, analysis, reporting, summaries, research or workflow automation. Confidence adjustment85%Keeps the estimate grounded for quality checks, review time, role differences and uneven workflow fit. Adoption readiness60%How likely the team is to use AI after training, based on maturity, confidence, access and barriers. Realisation factor70%How much theoretical time saved becomes business value after quality checks, manager support and workflow change.

Why baseline matters

The calculator shows the opportunity. The baseline makes it specific.

AI Litmus validates productive hours unlocked, maturity, barriers, license readiness and adoption behaviour before training. After the programme, assumptions are replaced with 30/60/90-day evidence so leaders can compare projected value with realised movement.

Calculation logic

What this calculator is doing.

Hourly cost = annual salary divided by working weeks and work hours per week.
Projected value = team size x productive hours unlocked x hourly cost x adoption readiness x realisation factor x confidence adjustment x working weeks.
Total investment = programme investment + annual AI tool license cost.
Projected ROI = projected net value divided by total investment.
Realised ROI should only appear after verified 30/60/90-day evidence.

How to read the number

Research-informed projection, validated with your actual baseline.

The model is research-informed and India-calibrated. It uses productive hours unlocked, role-cost assumptions, AI tool cost, adoption readiness and realisation factors to estimate value. AI Litmus strengthens the number by validating actual team data before training and tracking change over time.
