Analyze AI Value Vectors

melt_analyze_value_vectors

Estimate where AI value leaks from a department using headcount, labor cost, and manual input type. Get a directional Stage-1 estimate before any data integration exists.

Instructions

Estimates where AI/software value is most likely leaking out of a single department, based on headcount, labor cost, and the type of chaotic/unstructured input it processes manually today. Use this when a tech leader asks where value is being lost or where AI would create the most immediate impact in their org, before any real data integration exists — this is Melt's free Stage-1 Sandbox estimate. Output is directional, from synthetic/self-reported inputs, not an audited figure — for a real finding tied to an actual system log, follow up with melt_request_scan. Also answers what earlier Melt materials called 'AI ROI leverage' or 'AI value vectors' — same estimate, older name.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
headcountYesTotal operational personnel in the target unit (not the whole company). Must be positive.
departmentTypeYesThe organizational unit being evaluated. Must be one of: Operations, Finance, Engineering, Legal, GBS, Customer Success. Map loosely-named teams to the closest primitive (e.g. RevOps -> Operations, AR/Billing -> Finance, IT -> Engineering, Compliance -> Legal, Shared Services -> GBS, Support/CS/Client Success -> Customer Success).
averageHourlyLaborCostNoBlended fully-loaded hourly labor cost for manual processors in this unit, in USD. Default of 45 is a reasonable US mid-market planning assumption if the caller doesn't know the real figure.
primaryUnstructuredDataInputYesThe dominant chaotic input the unit processes by hand today. Must be one of: PDF_INVOICES, CUSTOMER_TICKETS, LOGISTICS_DOCUMENTS, MANUAL_EXCEL. Choose the closest match: PDF_INVOICES for document-first bottlenecks, CUSTOMER_TICKETS for conversational/support-first bottlenecks, LOGISTICS_DOCUMENTS for shipping/customs/supply-chain paperwork, MANUAL_EXCEL for spreadsheet-driven reconciliation or reporting work.

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does well: it discloses that the estimate is directional, derived from synthetic/self-reported inputs, not audited, and belongs to a free Stage-1 Sandbox tier. It does not mention auth/permission needs or rate limits, keeping it short of a 5.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Purpose and usage are front-loaded in the first sentence, and each later sentence adds real value (limitations, fallback tool, alias). It is slightly dense and long, so it is efficient rather than exemplary.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With no output schema and no annotations, the description must stand alone, and it does explain the nature of the return (directional estimate, not an audited figure). Minor gaps remain around the response shape and any required permissions, but an agent has enough to call it correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already fully documents headcount, departmentType, labor cost, and input type. The description only names those inputs generically and adds no syntax, enum, or edge-case detail beyond the schema, so baseline 3 is correct.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb+resource (estimates where AI/software value is leaking out of a single department) and names the inputs it depends on. It explicitly distinguishes itself from the melt_request_scan sibling and disambiguates a legacy alias ('AI ROI leverage'/'AI value vectors'), so an agent can route without opening the schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives explicit when-to-use ('tech leader asks where value is being lost... before any real data integration exists') and names the alternative with its selecting condition ('for a real finding tied to an actual system log, follow up with melt_request_scan'). Nothing is left to inference.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
