Value Case

What this would be worth

An illustrative model over assumptions you can change. Deliberately conservative: the saving applies to preparation time only, review and sign-off are unchanged, and the benefit is scaled by adoption.

Illustrative model

Illustrative business-case model using configurable assumptions. Figures are not measured from a production deployment and are not the data of any institution. Saved hours are expressed as analyst capacity released, not as cost removed.

Assumptions

Every figure below is editable. None is measured from a production deployment.

Cases per month120

Counterparty reviews completed per month by the team in scope.

Manual hours per case6.5h

Analyst hours per review today, covering evidence gathering, analysis and drafting.

AI-assisted hours per case3.4h

Analyst hours per review with ARGUS. Review and judgement time is unchanged; only preparation shortens.

Human review hours per case1.2h

Human review and sign-off time. Recorded for transparency and deliberately not reduced by the model.

Analyst cost per hourUS$85.00

Fully loaded hourly cost of a risk analyst.

AI cost per caseUS$0.42

Estimated model and infrastructure cost per investigation. The default is the order of magnitude observed on the demonstration case.

Adoption rate70%

Share of eligible reviews actually run through the tool. A tool nobody uses saves nothing, so the benefit is scaled by this.

Implementation costUS$180.0k

One-off build, integration and change cost.

Annual run costUS$60.0k

Ongoing platform, hosting and maintenance cost per year.
