What are you building, and how much finished learning? Seat time is the primary driver of every estimate below.
Complexity sets the development ratio โ hours to build one finished hour. The editable starting profiles come from Chapman Alliance's 2010 study; they are reference points, not current universal benchmarks. Calibrate them with your own completed work when possible.
How total effort distributes across phases. AI in the next step is applied to the Design & Development portion.
Model where AI may help โ and include what it costs. The report shows a traditional vs. AI-assisted comparison. Every percentage is an editable scenario assumption, not a benchmark.
Costs on top of the base build. Leave at zero if the complexity ratio already covers your media.
