Quality-Adjusted Hours
Additional savings from fewer bugs/rework
Key Assumptions
- • 60% of new code development is routine/boilerplate patterns
- • Productivity gains are calculated net of AI tool interaction time
- • Quality improvements (fewer bugs, less rework) provide additional time savings
- • Based on aggregated data from MIT, GitHub, Accenture, and enterprise studies (2024-2025)
