ROI Model

Cost-Exposure Modeling
for Browser Collection Operations

Quantify the cost of running collection infrastructure internally and compare it to a managed Undetect deployment. This is not a marketing calculator. It is a cost-exposure model.

Functional Spend Categories

  • Engineering labor
  • Infrastructure & compute
  • Proxy & IP rotation
  • CAPTCHA mitigation
  • Monitoring & tooling
  • Downtime & recovery cost
Undetect Managed Deployment

Included Capability Layers

  • Unified infrastructure
  • Managed browser fleet
  • Fingerprint orchestration
  • Proxy abstraction layer
  • Automated failure handling
  • Enterprise monitoring
Why This Matters

Internal Stacks Fail Silently

  • IP burn increases exponentially
  • Anti-bot escalation raises cost per record
  • Engineering time shifts from product to maintenance
  • Failure recovery hours
  • Hidden proxy waste
  • CAPTCHA inflation
  • Rewrites after detection shifts

This model is designed to force visibility into hidden operational cost exposure.

Managed Service Baseline

Managed service engagements begin at $10,000 / month, scaled to volume and complexity.

Model Assumptions

  • Complexity multiplier scales with number of targets.
  • Block-rate penalty is modeled against current infrastructure spend.
  • Managed baseline is floored to the $10,000 monthly minimum.
