An AI workforce for one agent
One agent over one year. Every number is cited in chapter 07 or computed from an assumption you can edit in chapter 05, and the page recomputes when you change one.

the modeled floor: plan return with zero added closings
Added sides drive the headline number, and they are an assumption. The fourth tile strips them out. With sides, leakage, and software savings all set to zero, the modeled returned time would still cover the plan 6.2×.
Every row ships today. The product holds each outbound send until you approve it.

Workflows start across the first quarter, and a lead worked in month 1 closes months later. The charts spread chapter 01’s annual buckets across that calendar to show when the value arrives. The months below play out the model’s assumptions, and a real year can run slower.
Months 1–3
Coverage
Connect email, calendar, and CRM; the inbox scan rebuilds your database. Lucia and Ren run daily from week one; Ivy, Scout, and Alex join weekly. Every new lead enters a 14-day sequence; quiet contacts hear from you again.
Months 4–8
Conversion
In this scenario the first added closings land around month 5. Alex builds the CMA and presentation for each appointment; envelopes and stage checklists run every deal.
Months 9–12
Compounding
Leads get answered the same day, past clients hear from you each quarter, and each close ends with a referral ask. That cadence carries into year two.

Each row is a workflow from chapter 02, placed at the month a typical rollout turns it on. The dot marks the start.
Modeled value created per month
Figure 02 · Monthly value by bucket
Revenue starts month 4: a median 10-week search [8] plus contract-to-close sits between a worked lead and a commission. Capacity follows the ramp in Figure 01; cost and leakage start month 3.
Cumulative value vs cumulative plan cost
Figure 03 · Cumulative modeled value vs workforce cost
Value = Figure 02, accumulated. Cost = $480/yr, spread monthly. Year one captures 97% of the modeled total ($41K) while workflows ramp. Year two starts with the cadence already running.

The follow-up gap the workforce aims at
Daily follow-up drafts and 14-day sequences exist to close this gap.
The retention gap it reopens
A whole book stays warm only when something runs the cadence. The quarterly sequences and Scout’s sweeps run it.
| Work (modeled week) | Now hrs/wk | With Atlas | Returnable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lead follow-up + CRM | 5.0 | 1.5 | 3.5 |
| Listing / CMA prep | 3.0 | 1.0 | 2.0 |
| Marketing production | 2.5 | 0.5 | 2.0 |
| Transaction admin | 3.0 | 1.5 | 1.5 |
| Reporting / data research | 1.5 | 0.5 | 1.0 |
| Total | 15 | 5 | 10 hrs/week |
This week is a model. No published time-use study covers this work. The default claims 5 of the 10 hours, at ~$34/hr ($59,200 median income[1] ÷ ~1,750 hours).
Why 3 added sides is the default
+1 to 1.5 · follow-up coverage. Same-day response and 8-touch persistence on every lead, where audited companies average a 42-hour response[5] and nearly half of real-estate inquiries get silence[6].
+1 · the retention gap. A book of past clients on a real quarterly cadence, against the 87%-would / 29%-do spread[8].
+0.5 to 1 · prospecting. Weekly territory claims ranked by sell-probability, worked instead of skipped.
On a 10-side base that is a 30% claim, which is large. Controlled studies measured +12.2% tasks done and 25.1% faster completion[10], with ~14% on average and 34% for novices[11]. If 30% reads high for your business, set it lower in chapter 05 and the model reprices.
Every assumption sits here. The default claims 3 added sides and 5 of about 10 returnable hours, and it counts 35% of the returned time, since time turns into money only when you reinvest it.
