What does manual quoting cost your agency?
Put a number on your team’s portal entry work. Set your quote volume, carrier count, entry time, and hourly labor cost.
Minutes per carrier portal
Use your measured entry time. The starting value is an example.
Use a loaded hourly cost, including the employment costs you want to count.
Your workload estimate
Portal data entry per month

At $25 per hour

Use this as a starting point.
Your inputs represent 90 minutes of portal entry for each quote packet. Time one familiar packet from your own agency, then adjust the inputs to match.
Illustrative workload estimate, not a Relay performance or savings claim. Math: quotes × carriers × minutes per portal, at the hourly rate you picked. See the methodology below.
Methodology
What this estimate includes
The formula is simple: quotes per month, times carrier portals per quote, times minutes per portal, at an hourly rate. No assumptions about automation savings are added.
The starting values are examples. Time a representative set of quotes in your agency, record which portals actually require entry, and enter the labor cost that matches your planning.
This estimates entry effort only. Record document preparation, missing-information follow-up, corrections, and review separately. Recovered time becomes useful capacity only when you can put it toward other work. It is not automatically a payroll saving.
FAQ
Common questions
Where do the default numbers come from?+
They are editable examples, not an industry average. Replace them with your quote volume, portals used, measured entry time, and loaded hourly labor cost.
Why does carrier count multiply the cost?+
The estimate counts the entry effort for each portal. If a rater transfers information or some markets do not require re-entry, count only the portal work your team actually performs.
Does this estimate automated savings?+
No. It estimates the manual portal-entry workload from the values you choose. Relay availability and results depend on the configured workflow and require separate evaluation.
Is this a quote for Relay?+
No. It is an illustrative workload estimate using your inputs, not a quote, ROI claim, or promise of Relay performance. Relay pricing has not been published.
