About Dodone
Dodone is a free calculator for the economic effect of AI tools. It shows every formula and assumption, so you can check each result.

Why Dodone exists
The cost of an AI tool is easy to see. The return is not. Many ROI claims do not show their assumptions, so you cannot check them.
Dodone shows each formula, default and limitation. You can check a result and change any assumption.
What makes it transparent
- A published, versioned methodology with every formula and limitation.
- Two separate valuations: capacity-based value and revenue-linked value. Dodone never adds them together.
- A full calculation trace, with a source label for each number.
- Your calculations stay on your device unless you publish or save them.
- Reviews of 14 other methodologies, with links to the originals.
What Dodone is not
- Dodone does not give financial advice.
- Results are scenarios. They are not forecasts, and capacity-based value is not proven cash savings.
- The methodology is not independently audited.
