ROI Framework
Partner & Customer Calculator

What does execution
infrastructure return?

Enterprise AI value lives in execution, not intelligence. This framework converts your operational profile into the seven value drivers Metaprise unlocks — and the per-Mission budget your CFO can sign. Every figure is traceable to a published assumption.

Framework Version v1.0 · May 2026
Defensibility ±5% Pay-by-Result band per Mission line. Operational assumptions sourced from McKinsey, Gartner, IDC, and Metaprise customer telemetry.

Section 02 · Budget Reality · The CFO Pain Behind The Pain

Mission Pricing replaces token roulette.

Today the same workflow costs $0.40 one run and $8.70 the next. Nobody can budget that. Metaprise quotes one fixed Mission price — and 70% of the profit on every Mission goes to the deploying partner.

70% of every dollar of profit goes to the partner.

At Metaprise's 60% gross margin on a $10–$50 Mission, that's 42% of every dollar of customer revenue flowing to the deploying partner. Compare against published cloud and SaaS channel programs.

Reduction Coefficients

Coefficients are conservative against Metaprise customer telemetry. Sales Kit Section 4 references 70–80% manual touchpoint reduction in P2P, 40–60% MTTR reduction, and compliance evidence preparation moving from 2–4 weeks to instant. This framework applies the lower bound of each.

Driver Reduction
D1 · Operational touchpoints 70%
D2 · Cycle time 70%
D3 · Compliance hours 40%
D4 · Audit headcount equivalent 30%
D4 · Audit prep cost 75%
D5 · Financial cycle days 21 days
D6 · MTTR 50%
D7 · SLA breaches 60%

Formulas

  • D1 = (Contracts × 6 touchpoints × $95 × 70%) + (Compliance hours × $90/hr × 30%)
  • D2 = (Contracts × Cycle days × 70% × Daily revenue contribution × 0.6)
  • D3 = Compliance hours × $90/hr × 40%
  • D4 = (Audit headcount × $180K × 30%) + ($500K × 75%)
  • D5 = (Financial volume × Avg txn value × 21 days × WACC) ÷ 365
  • D6 = Incident volume × $28K × 50%
  • D7 = Incident volume × 15% breach rate × $8.5K × 60%

The Mission budget is derived from operational volumes: compliance Missions (1 per 10 hours), contract Missions (4 per contract — onboarding, milestone, payment, audit), incident Missions (6 per incident), and financial Missions (5% of volume), priced at the industry-blended unit cost.

Coverage Curve

Year 1: 50% coverage — a conservative build-out as the Mission library is assembled across initial use cases. Year 2: 80% with cross-workflow expansion. Year 3: 100% baseline coverage. The curve runs below typical SaaS adoption to keep the headline defensible to a finance-heavy review.

Defensibility Notes for the CFO Conversation

  • This is gross operational value, not pricing. Mission budget appears as a separate line — the figure your CFO can sign.
  • Per-Mission ±5% band is structural. Metaprise absorbs cross-model variance (±60%), cross-execution variance (±40%), and context bloat at the platform level. This is Sales Kit Section 1's Pay-by-Result mechanism.
  • Reduction coefficients are below the kit's published ranges. Adjust upward only when customer data warrants — never adjust downward, as the framework already runs conservative.
  • Working-capital figure (D5) is the most variable. Calibrate avg transaction value against actual financial-execution data before presenting to a finance-heavy buyer.
