What does Tracelight actually save you?
Three inputs. Live math. We compare the cost of doing OSINT manually against running it through Tracelight at the right tier for your volume.
hrs
$/hr
Manual / today
$7,500
/ month in OSINT labor
With Tracelight (Pro)
$2,024
$149 subscription + $1,875 residual labor
Net savings
$5,476
/ month
That's $65,712 annualized, and 45 hours per month back in your week.
Break-even at 0.5 cases/month at this rate.
Assumptions
- · Tracelight cuts OSINT time by ~75% based on early-access user reports.
- · Recommended tier auto-selected from cases/month for minimum total cost.
- · Residual 25% of OSINT time billed at your standard rate.
- · Manual cost assumes you can bill the OSINT hours; if it's overhead, savings are even higher.
How we calculate it
- Manual cost per month = cases × hours per case × billable rate
- Tracelight cost per month = subscription tier matching your case volume
- Time saved per case = a typical Tracelight pass cuts the manual-OSINT slog by ~70–85% based on early-access user reports — we use 75%
- Net monthly savings = manual cost − Tracelight cost − (cases × residual hours × billable rate)
This is a directional estimate, not a quote. Your mileage will vary based on how much OSINT you actually do today and how much of it Tracelight covers for your specific workflow. Run the 7-day trial on a real case to validate.
