All defaults are examples, not benchmarks. The $150 value of an advisor hour is a placeholder: one way to set your own is an advisor's annual compensation, or the revenue they generate, divided by the hours they work in a year. The cost defaults reflect our Starter pricing ($1,500/month, $2,500 setup); change them if you're comparing another option. Illustrative only. Results assume 52 working weeks and don't account for time spent reviewing and approving the agent's work, ramp-up time, or how your firm actually uses the hours freed. Extra meetings and households show capacity, not new revenue or new clients.
