PM time recovery
Hours your PMs spend on supplier coordination, monitoring, and reconciliation — returned by the FieldworkOS. Almost always the largest line on the page.
Integrated ROI · FieldworkOS + SurveyGuard
The total value of the
SoftSight platform
in a single number.
One shared input set powers both products. Eleven value levers, deduplicated so nothing is counted twice — your total annual savings, your net ROI, and the day you break even on the bundle.

Adjust the inputs. Watch the numbers move.
Every default is calibrated from the 8-PM questionnaire. Tune them to your reality — the eleven levers recompute live, and the breakdown shows exactly which product earns each dollar.

CPI negotiation savings
5 of 8 PMs negotiate on gut feel. Data-driven negotiation recovers a conservative 15% of sample spend.
SG · F1–F3
Fraud, quota & direct sample cost
Fraudulent completes paid at CPI, displaced genuine respondents, and quota cells closed by bad data — prevented at entry by SurveyGuard.
Shared · L5/F5
CPI reconciliation trap
When a supplier moves CPI mid-study, manual reconciliation bills every respondent at the new rate. Counted once — FieldworkOS tags each respondent at the rate it was sourced.
FieldworkOS · L4
Headcount avoidance
The PM hire that manual operations forces as volume grows. The most emotional number on the page — a person you don't need to add.
SG · F6
Reputational risk events
When fraud reaches delivered data and a client raises a concern, the cost is re-work, credits, and renewal risk. The insurance value is real.
Primary-data calibration
Every default has a source.
When a prospect asks ‘how did you get to that default?’ — every number has an answer drawn from real MR project-manager responses. This is the difference between a calculator that feels like a sales tool and one that feels like an audit.
- Calibrated from 8 real MR project-manager responses
