Assumes 48 working weeks and 50–70% automation per category — Claude Cowork drafts and executes, a human reviews. Deliberately conservative; integrated tools push these numbers higher.

Where these numbers come from

Claude Cowork is Anthropic's agentic AI tool: it operates a browser, reads and drafts documents, connects to your real apps (Gmail, Slack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Notion, databases) via MCP, and runs multi-step workflows end-to-end. It doesn't eliminate task categories — it changes your role in them from producer to reviewer.

That's why the calculator caps every category between 50% and 70%: a weekly report that took 3 hours to build takes 20 minutes to review; a follow-up email that took 10 minutes to compose takes 1 minute to approve. The hours that remain are the judgment, relationships, and decisions you were hired for.
