How we calculated this

Our assumptions:

- Manual review takes twice the call length per reviewed call (listening, scoring, and notes)

- IdentityCall cost: $0.18 per minute of audio analyzed, an illustrative blended rate. Plans are monthly packages with included minutes; see pricing

- Reviewer time is costed at the hourly rate you enter

- No allowance for the time your team still spends checking flagged calls and calibrating the rubric

The formula:

- Manual cost today = Calls × Reviewed % × (2 × Duration ÷ 60) × Hourly rate

- Manual cost for every call = Calls × (2 × Duration ÷ 60) × Hourly rate

- IdentityCall cost = Calls × Duration × $0.18

- Difference = Manual cost for every call − IdentityCall cost
