ROI calculator

Turn your AP workload into an illustrative automation business case.

Use invoice volume, processing time, labor cost, expected automatable effort, and estimated platform investment to frame the labor-capacity opportunity. The result is directional—not a financial guarantee.

The investment figure is a neutral placeholder, not a Stream price. This directional model values labor capacity only. It excludes implementation effort, error reduction, discounts, duplicate-payment avoidance, working-capital impact, rebates, and other benefits. Validate assumptions with your finance team before making an investment decision.
