The hidden cost of per-seat tools
Traditional tools scale linearly with headcount. Keid scales with your business. By replacing multiple per-seat tools with one flat-priced system, agencies typically save hundreds to thousands per month
- before accounting for time saved or margins protected.

How much time and money consultants save with Keid
4–7 hours saved per consultant per month
Based on removing just 12–20 minutes per workday spent switching tools, chasing approvals, answering repetitive client questions, and checking status across systems.
(12 minutes/day × 20 days = 4 hours. Many teams save more.)
$600–1,050 saved per consultant per month
Calculated using a consistent $150/hour consulting rate.
(4 hours × $150 = $600. 7 hours × $150 = $1,050.)
Time savings scale automatically across the team
Keid removes shared friction. Every consultant benefits without extra setup, training, or process overhead.
