Here’s a realistic estimate of time saved per project by using Cataligent instead of juggling Excel + PowerPoint + email/Slack updates:
| Task | Traditional Method | With Cataligent | Time Saved |
|---|---|---|---|
| Action tracking in Excel | ~5–8 hours/week | Automated dashboards | 80–100% |
| Status updates & chasing owners | ~3–5 hours/week | Live owner-linked updates | 80–90% |
| Deck creation for reviews | ~10–15 hours/month | Auto-generated slides | 90–100% |
| Alignment meetings for updates | ~4–6 hours/month | Asynchronous visibility | 50–70% |
| Progress reports for leadership | ~2–3 hours/week | Instant export | 90–100% |
✅ Estimated total savings:
25–40 hours per project/month
(that’s 3–5 full workdays per month)
