Founder calculator
AI vs. human team cost calculator
Estimate the loaded annual cost of the human roles your company needs, then compare that investment with an AI executive team that works continuously.
Inputs and method
- Enter each human role's annual base salary. The calculator applies a 25% allowance for payroll taxes, benefits, and software.
- Compare that loaded total with the Boardroom plan at $499 per month ($5,988 per year).
- Use the difference to decide which roles need a human hire now and which work can be covered by persistent AI support.
Worked example and caveats
For marketing, data, and product salaries of $85,000, $90,000, and $110,000, the $285,000 base becomes $356,250 after the 25% allowance. Against $5,988 for a year of Boardroom, the modeled difference is $350,262.
This is a scenario-planning comparison, not a claim that AI can replace every employee. Actual costs vary by country, seniority, benefits, recruiting, implementation, and the work that still requires a human decision-maker.
