What being the bottleneck actually costs you
Plug in your numbers. See the annual cost Lattify could plausibly reduce from repeated questions, onboarding drag, drift, and early churn.
Your business
Total team across all locations, including yourself
CIPD puts UK hospitality at 52%; the default models a high-churn venue
Used for site-level costs like mistakes, drift, and compliance
Be honest. £80 is light for an owner doing the books and the rota
Assumption profile
Balanced assumptions for a busy UK hospitality operator.
Estimated recoverable cost
£48,863 /yr
The gross hidden cost model is £118,380. Lattify Growth costs £948 a year, so payback is about 7 days on this profile.
Where the value comes from
Open each row to see the gross cost, the recoverable share, and what is sourced versus estimated.
- £23,904
Formula
Gross: 10 interruptions/day x 10 min x 300 days x £80/hr = £39,840. Recoverable: £39,840 x 60% = £23,904.
Source / note
Interruption count is estimated from team size: 0.83 questions per staff member per day, capped between 5 and 20. At your inputs that is 10 per day. We then assume 10 minutes of lost focus per interruption, which is deliberately lower than Gloria Mark's 23m 15s knowledge-work recovery figure, and only count 60% as answerable by better guides.

How this is calculated
This is an impact model, not a guarantee. It estimates the part of each hidden cost that better training, searchable guides, and captured know-how could plausibly reduce. It does not assume Lattify removes the whole category. Staff count is total team size across all sites, while location count is only applied to site-level costs: mistakes, process drift, and compliance prep.
