Based on Zedtreeo's actual pricing. Starting from $5/hour for dedicated remote staff from India.
Transparent methodology grounded in real costs.
Zedtreeo rates based on actual pricing tiers (starting $5/hr). Market rates sourced from Glassdoor, Payscale, and Robert Half 2026 data including employer overhead (benefits, taxes, office).
3-year ROI = (Total Savings ÷ Initial Investment) × 100. Investment includes onboarding costs + first month. Savings compound monthly from day one.
Zedtreeo's structured 4-step process and pre-vetted candidates reduce typical 6-week ramp-up to 2-3 weeks. The extra productive weeks are quantified as additional ROI.
Understanding your remote staffing returns.
The calculator factors in: Zedtreeo's monthly rates (hourly × 160 hrs), one-time onboarding costs you specify, and compares against fully-loaded local market costs (salary + benefits + taxes + overhead). It does NOT include potential revenue gains from faster hiring — making the actual ROI even higher.
Payback = Total Initial Investment ÷ Monthly Savings. Your initial investment is onboarding costs + first month's Zedtreeo cost. Since savings start from month one, most teams break even within 4-6 weeks.
Yes — they're conservative. The calculator only measures direct cost savings. It doesn't account for: faster time-to-hire (48hr shortlists vs 6-week recruiting cycles), zero recruitment fees, no benefits/insurance overhead, and the free 5-day trial that eliminates bad-hire risk.
Nothing hidden. The rate you see includes everything: employee salary, AI tool training, dedicated account management, NDA/IP protection, timezone matching, performance reports, and replacement guarantee. No separate fees.
Larger teams amplify savings linearly — if 1 developer saves $5,000/month, 5 developers save $25,000/month. The ROI percentage stays similar, but absolute dollar savings scale significantly. Teams of 3+ typically see the best cost-per-person efficiency.
