Put a number on manual page checks.

Estimate the competitor-page reviews, hours, and labor cost tied to your own product count and checking routine. Then compare that estimate with ShelfSkein’s published monthly plans.

Your checking routine

Your products with competitor pages in this workflow.

Count every competitor-page review for one of your products during the selected interval.

Time spent on one competitor-page review.

Enter the labor cost in USD for one hour of this work.

Labor estimate minus plan price: $10,245.33 · illustrative ROI 1,742.4%

Formula: (annual manual labor cost − 12-month plan price) ÷ 12-month plan price. This scenario assumes 100% replacement of the manual checking time entered.

Formula and units

Every estimate follows these input-based calculations.

Checks / year = products you check × competitor-page checks per product per interval × intervals per year.

Hours / year = checks / year × minutes per check ÷ 60 minutes per hour.

Labor cost / year = hours / year × labor cost in USD per hour.

Monthly averages = yearly estimates ÷ 12 months.

Estimates use only the values entered here. Monthly averages equal the annual estimate divided by 12; yearly frequency uses 365 days, 52 weeks, or 12 months. The first-year comparison assumes a ShelfSkein plan replaces 100% of the manual checking time entered. That is a comparison scenario, not a claim or promise of realized savings. It excludes setup, taxes, and any work outside these checks. Plan prices are the published USD monthly prices multiplied by 12.
