AI Coding Assistant ROI Calculator

Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code — is the productivity uplift worth the seat cost?

AI assistants are cheap per seat but the productivity claim is wide ranging (10–55% depending on whose study you read). Plug in your team and a realistic uplift to see the actual annual return.

Copilot Business ≈ $19, Cursor Pro $20, Claude Code seat varies.

Value = engineers × adoption × fully-loaded cost × uplift. The seat cost is rounding noise at any reasonable uplift — the real cost is the measurement and onboarding effort, which most teams skip.

Where the uplift comes from

Real-world studies converge around 10–25% on routine tasks (boilerplate, tests, refactors). The "55% faster" headline numbers come from narrow tasks. Plan for the lower end and treat anything above as upside.

The gotcha

Uplift is not uniform — juniors gain more on routine work, seniors gain more on context switching. The break-even is almost always trivial at current seat prices; the real question is whether you measure it.
