ROI calculator

Same book of aged receivables. Two paths. Your numbers.

Enter what you place with an agency each year and what they keep. The calculator applies observed recovery rates by age bucket and DueWell’s fee structure, side by side with the agency outcome.

Adjust the inputs; results update as you go. Defaults illustrate $500K in annual aged placements on Grow. This is steady-flow economics, not a forecast of cash received in year one.

$500,000

Balances 60+ days old when they’d be placed. Annual placement dollars, not cash already collected. Small volumes may not justify a monthly platform fee.

The plan sets both the platform fee and success percentage. Choose by total bill and included usage.

Observed recovery by age at placement. “Published” uses 90 days for the younger two buckets and 180 days for the older two. Uniform presets use the selected observation period, not a full year.

Monthly communication usage (optional)

Leave at zero to assume usage within your plan. Enter average monthly totals to include overages. Included: 20,000 text segments and 1,500 voice minutes per month. Uneven monthly usage can produce a different bill.

Your current agency, for comparison
30%

Share of recovered dollars the agency keeps. Adjust this assumption to your agency’s quote.

Performance figures are single-site results from a founder-affiliated diagnostic imaging practice; observational data, no control group. Agency benchmarks: ACA International recovery data as reproduced in trade sources; contingency ranges are industry-standard.

Setup waiver assumed. Excludes processing, refunds, staff time and separately scoped services. Overages are included only for entered usage. Recoveries are not guaranteed; age mix, timing and data quality matter. This is not a controlled comparison with an agency.
