See what you're losing.
Plug in your revenue, jobs, margin and weekly admin hours. The math is rough on purpose — you'll still see roughly how much better tracking and one-shot estimating is worth to a crew your size.
Your business
We use $65/hr for foreman admin time and a recoverable margin of 5% based on real-time job costing. Rough numbers, honest math.

WorkPilot won't recover 100% of this. But contractors typically pull back 60–80% within the first three months — usually more than enough to cover the subscription many times over.

Why $65/hour for admin time?
That's roughly what a working foreman's time costs the business when you factor in burden — payroll taxes, insurance, equipment. If you pay yourself $75K a year as owner-operator and bill $95/hr, $65 is about what every admin hour actually costs.
Where does the 5% margin recovery come from?
Real-time job costing typically surfaces 3–7% of margin that was slipping through the cracks — material price bumps you didn't catch, labor overruns you didn't see until the P&L, change orders you never billed. 5% is the middle of that range.
Is this actually what WorkPilot recovers?
It's a ceiling, not a promise. Most contractors pull back 60–80% of this number within 3 months. Some get more because their admin is worse than they realized. A few get less because they were already tight. Your mileage will vary.
Can I save my inputs?
Not in this version — we wanted the tool usable without an email gate. If you start a free trial of WorkPilot, the calculator is built into the dashboard with your real data.
