| Metric | KettyBot | Servi Plus |
|---|---|---|
| Investment | $14,357 | $24,000 |
| Payback period | 3.4 mo | 5.8 mo |
| Net savings (5 yr) | $235,643 | $226,000 |
| ROI (5 yr) | +1641% | +942% |
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.
