Where each number comes from

Engineering rework recovered

We take your total engineering cost (₹1,50,00,000), apply the rework rate (30%) to find how much effort is wasted, then narrow it to the share caused by unclear requirements (50%). That gives ₹22,50,000 of addressable waste. Enact recovers 35% of that — conservatively.

New engineer ramp-up

With 2 new hires joining per year (estimated at 15% of team), each ramps up ~4 weeks faster when specs, past decisions, and context are already captured. At your hourly rate that's ₹2,30,769/yr.

PM & EM planning time

A team of 10 typically has 1 PM/EM. Each saves ~4 hours per week on requirement writing, back-and-forth, and alignment meetings. At your team's cost rate that's ₹1,50,000/yr.

Documentation overhead

Each engineer spends roughly 45 minutes per week writing or chasing documentation — PRDs, acceptance criteria, edge cases. Enact generates this automatically. Across 10 engineers that's ₹2,81,250/yr.

Talk-to-code cycle

Customer signals — support tickets, Slack threads, calls — currently sit for days before becoming a ticket. Enact ingests them in real time. The context-setting and disambiguation work this replaces costs your PMs roughly ₹36,058/yr.
