How the NHB Score Works

What is NHB?

The Net Human Benefit (NHB) framework measures the true impact of AI and automation by quantifying both human wellbeing and financial outcomes. It ensures that hours saved are reinvested into meaningful work that benefits people and profit.

Scoring Breakdown

  • 40%Reinvestment ratio (hours saved vs. redirected)
  • 20%Human connection (client-facing time)
  • 20%Wellbeing (learning & staff satisfaction)
  • 20%Outcome quality (reduced rework & defects)

Pass Threshold

An NHB score of 3.5 or higher indicates that your automation project is delivering balanced value to both people and profit. Scores below 3.5 suggest opportunities to reinvest more effectively.

Financial Impact

The calculator projects annual financial returns based on your reinvestment allocation, including billable time gains, quality improvements, and reduced burnout costs. This gives CFOs and boards tangible ROI metrics.
