HOW WE CALCULATE
Three independent sources. Conservative numbers. All verified.
- 01
SCB Salary Statistics 2024
Gross salaries per occupation (SSYK codes 4222, 4119, 3322, 3313). Weighted average: 36,465 SEK/month + employer fees (31.42%) + vacation/pension → loaded cost ~54,333 SEK/month → ~418 SEK/h. Calculator value: 400 SEK/h (5% margin down — conservative).
- 02
McKinsey (2023)
"The Economic Potential of Generative AI" — automation potential per function. Customer operations: 30–45% cost reduction. All work activities: 60–70% of time (theoretical).

How we calculated Telestore's savings
Telestore's verified result: ~390,000 SEK/year (corresponds to year 2 maturity — Telestore has run automations for 2+ years)
Why AI savings are always higher in reality
Hourly cost 400 SEK/h — SCB calculates loaded cost to ~418 SEK/h including employer fees and vacation/pension. We use 400 SEK/h — a deliberate 5% margin down to keep the estimate conservative.
Overhead not included
(office space, IT, equipment)
Error costs not included (Telestore
~26,400 SEK/year eliminated)
Quality effects not monetized
(Trustpilot 3 years running)
The calculator systematically underestimates actual savings
