AI Automation ROI Tracker

Tracks whether your AI automations actually save time weekly

Problem
Small business owners are surrounded by AI automation pitches (email, leads, support, scheduling), but few know which automations survive after setup and genuinely save time weekly. Others find support bots reduce ticket volume on paper while customers get angrier, needing a way to evaluate real automation impact.
Solution
A lightweight tool to log each automation with expected time savings and actual usage frequency; through simple check-ins or API integrations, automatically calculates weekly time saved and ROI, and suggests cleanup for long-unused automations.
Users
Small business owners, operations managers, and solo founders.
MVP
Manually add automations and set expected benefits; weekly check-in reminders to log actual usage; auto-generate time saved and ROI reports; flag automations unused for 30+ days; export reports.
Revenue
Free for up to 3 automations; paid at $9/month for unlimited tasks and team sharing.
Why now
AI automation tools are flooding the market but lack real impact measurement; indie developers can quickly build a lightweight tracker to help owners cut the clutter.
