Breakeven: calculating…
CoreIndividual productivity (14–26% task-completion time reduction): Brynjolfsson, Li & Raymond, QJE 2025 — randomized controlled trial of 5,179 customer support agents. Conservative scenario uses 14% lower bound; aggressive uses 26% upper bound.
SurveyOrganizational productivity gains (96% reporting gains, 57% significant): EY US AI Pulse Survey Q4 2025 — 500 US senior decision-makers (SVP+) across 10 industries.
SurveyRevenue per employee uplift: PwC Global AI Jobs Barometer 2025 — analysis of close to one billion job ads across six continents.
SurveyEnd-to-end integration vs. isolated pilots: BCG AI Radar 2025 — 1,800+ executive survey. Leading companies achieve up to 25% cost savings with end-to-end process redesign.
NoteImplementation reality: BCG AI Radar 2025 — 60% of organizations generate no material value from AI despite investment. These projections assume process-first implementation with workflow redesign.
