FinePrint FineShield Business case

Measure FineShield on one team before you decide

Pick one team and its channels. Agree what counts as a confirmed issue and who checks the results. Report what you measured apart from what you assume about future losses. Then decide on your own evidence.

Name what is in and what is out

List the people, mailboxes, Slack channels, meetings, source documents and dates. That is the scope. Keep it the same when you compare results. Work outside it does not count toward coverage.

  • Count confirmed issues corrected before sending

    The agreed reviewer confirms that a flagged draft broke a rule and was fixed before it went out. Count approvals and open flags separately. A flag alone is not a confirmed issue.

  • Measure review time on comparable work

    Decide what counts as review time before you start. Record the time spent with and without FineShield on the same kind of work. Include the time spent on flags that turned out to be nothing.

  • Measure time from flag to decision

    Track how long each flag waits for its decision. Separate business approval from legal review. Count the decisions still waiting, so finished items are not mistaken for the whole queue.

  • Report flags that turned out to be nothing

    Show how many flags reviewers judged not to be a real conflict. Say how you counted them. Those flags cost time and belong in the result.

Include the full cost of the first scope

Start with the hours FineShield worked, at the terms agreed with you, plus setup. Add your own people's review and admin time at your company's cost rates. Do not treat every minute saved as money off the budget.

Review time saved is not automatically cash saved.

Keep loss estimates outside the measured result

A corrected promise does not prove a claim or a lawsuit would have followed. Describe what was found. An estimate of what it might have cost needs its own assumptions, and it is not a measured result.

Give the buyer the evidence and the limits

Report the scope, dates, source versions, reviewer, measures, actual costs and open questions. Say what was left out. Decide whether to continue or widen on that evidence.

Business case

Can we estimate a return before starting?

Yes, with stated assumptions and a way to test each one. Keep estimates apart from measured results. FinePrint does not promise a return on work it has not measured.

What are the five measures?

Confirmed issues corrected before sending, review time saved, time from flag to decision, flags that turned out to be nothing, and coverage of the work you named first.

Agree the scope and counting method with us

Bring the first team, its channels and the question you need answered. We agree the coverage and the measures before anything starts. FineShield is billed by the hours it works, with volume terms agreed with you.
