๐ข Team Impact (5-person development team)
Scenario: Complex E-commerce Feature Development
โโ Traditional Approach: 8 hours ร 5 developers = 40 person-hours
โโ MeshSeeks Approach: 2 hours ร 1 developer = 2 person-hours
โโ Savings: 38 person-hours (95% reduction)
๐ฐ Cost Savings (assuming $100/hour developer rate):
โโ Traditional Cost: $4,000
โโ MeshSeeks Cost: $200 + AI costs (~$50)
โโ Net Savings: $3,750 per feature
๐ Velocity Improvement:
