Where AI Fits: find the work where AI saves your team the most time
By Hank BarkerPublished Updated
Where AI Fits is a web tool for owners, executive directors, and team leads. It asks the questions that give AI enough to work with, maps your team's week, and scores every task for time saved, ease of starting, and risk. Then it writes a step-by-step guide for any recommended task in the AI tool you pick, plus a 90-day plan, a Word report for leadership, and an Excel tracker.
$149 per organization, or $499 for a consultant license. One-time prices.
The example is read-only and made up. It opens in a new tab and needs no sign-in.

Two kinds of numbers about AI
Leaders hear two very different numbers about AI. Vendor demos often suggest it will hand teams back a big part of their week. Studies of real workplaces find that people who use AI save about 2 to 6 percent of their working hours, and a real share of what AI saves goes into checking and fixing its work.
Where AI Fits is built around the second kind of number. It keeps its estimates cautious, shows the math, and links the studies, so leadership can see where the numbers came from. Advice from AI is also only as specific as what it's told, so the tool asks the questions people skip, and shows a meter for how much detail the AI has to work with.
How Where AI Fits works
Step 1
Tell it about the organization and team
What the team does, which AI tools and plans it has, what sensitive information it handles, and what would make the next 90 days a success. Not sure of an hourly cost or the working weeks in a year? Work them out in the tool. Or press Talk it through, describe the organization in your own words, and the AI fills in the answers for you to check.

Walk through a typical week
Eight questions about what comes in, what the team produces, and the thinking work. You answer at least four, in a sentence or two each, and a meter shows how much detail the AI has.

Add the details that make advice specific
Each task gets how it's done today, the tools it uses, what it starts from and produces, the rules and limits, and what slows it down. Dots show how complete each task is. The more detail a task has, the more specific its guide.

See where AI fits
Every task is scored for time saved, ease of starting, and risk. You get three big numbers, a map of where to start, a ranked list, and the tasks to leave alone for now. When the team handles sensitive records and has no AI policy yet, the ground rules come first.

Open a guide for any recommended task
Click "Show me how, step by step" and get a guide for one of your tools: set it up once, the instructions to paste, the files worth adding, the prompts to copy word for word, what to do each time, and what to check before it goes out.

Get the 90-day plan
Ground rules and quick wins in the first 30 days, saved skills in the next 30, and a look at what worked in the last 30, with training and simple ways to measure. An Excel tracker has the team log real minutes for 30 days and compares them with the estimate.

Share it with leadership
Copy the email that makes the case, and download the Word report with the numbers, the plan, the guides, and the studies behind the estimates.

What the built-in example shows
The example is a made-up six-person member services team at an association. The team, the answers, and the numbers are invented. The AI's answers came from Claude, running the tool's own prompts.
- →The team listed 14 tasks and 57 hours of weekly work.
- →In one run of this made-up example, the tool estimated 3.6 to 8.6 hours a week saved once the team has practice, about 2 to 4 percent of their time, worth roughly $6,400 to $15,300 a year at $38 an hour and 47 working weeks.
- →It ranked member emails in the shared inbox, the Thursday newsletter, and chasing members who haven't renewed as the places to start.
- →It said to keep upset billing calls and dues processing with people for now, and that copying registrations into the member database needs a fix from the database vendor, since a chat tool can't do it.
- →Because the team handles member and financial records and was still writing its AI policy, it put the ground rules first.
How the time-saved numbers are set
For each task, the AI picks the share of time AI could save once your team has practice, after the time it takes to check and fix its work. The AI is told to stay inside cautious ranges informed by published studies: about 10 to 35 percent for drafting documents, 5 to 15 for email, 20 to 50 for summarizing long documents, 5 to 20 for meeting notes and for answering repeat questions, 10 to 25 for research, 0 to 10 for data entry and scheduling, and 0 to 5 for work that depends on judgment or relationships. Few studies measure one kind of task at a time, so treat these as planning ranges, not study results.
Hours saved equal the hours you entered for the task times that share. The weekly total adds up every task except the ones marked not yet. The yearly value multiplies the weekly total by your working weeks and your hourly cost, which you can change. The plan has the team track real minutes for 30 days with the Excel tracker and compare them with the estimate.
Studies behind the ranges
- Noy and Zhang, Science, 2023: professionals finished writing tasks 40 percent faster with ChatGPT
- Microsoft 365 Copilot field experiment, 66 companies, 2025: time spent on email fell about 12 percent
- St. Louis Fed, 2025: people who used AI saved 5.4 percent of their work hours
- Humlum and Vestergaard, 25,000 workers in Denmark, 2025: average time saved was 2.8 percent of work hours
- Workday survey of 3,200 AI users, 2026: about 37 to 40 percent of the time AI saved went to checking and fixing its work
- METR, 2025: experienced developers were 19 percent slower with AI on their own projects, while believing they were faster

What to know before you use Where AI Fits
- →Where AI Fits is new, so expect rough edges and tell Hank what you find.
- →These are estimates, not measurements. They depend on the hours entered, and they assume the team has had practice. That's why the plan has the team track real minutes and compare them with the estimate.
- →The guides are written by AI from what you enter, for the plans you pick, as of October 2026. Menu and button names change, so check each step against what's on your screen.
- →Plan features differ, and a few are hedged on purpose. For example, whether Copilot Chat can do a given job inside Outlook depends on your organization's setup, so the tool never promises it or rules it out. Check with your IT team before promising anything.
- →It doesn't know your systems, contracts, or policies. Which AI tools are approved for sensitive information is your organization's call, and the tool says so.
- →What you describe goes to the AI you choose, so leave out names and member or client details. Your answers are saved only in your own browser.
