| Payback period | 1.3 mo | 4.8 mo |
| Net savings (5 yr) | $244,500 | $230,000 |
| ROI (5 yr) | +4445% | +1150% |
Estimates labor-cost displacement only — not a full total cost of ownership. Actual ROI depends on integration, maintenance, training, downtime, and task fit. Converted currencies are indicative; USD is the price of record.
