Consistent quality
Every CV looks polished and on-brand, regardless of which recruiter formats it or how busy the week gets.
What do these numbers mean?
The savings go beyond the spreadsheet. Here's the real-world impact.
Time back in your calendar
Every CV your team formats manually steals 28 minutes of focused work. With Saply, that time goes back to sourcing, calling, and closing: the work that actually drives placements.
Real labour cost savings
Manual formatting is invisible overhead. At an average recruiter hourly rate, those 28 minutes per CV multiply fast. The calculator above gives you the honest number for your team size.
Capacity for high-value work
When your team isn't buried in formatting, they're free to handle more vacancies, build better client relationships, and submit candidates faster, compounding your competitive advantage.
How the numbers are calculated
Our model uses an industry benchmark of 28 minutes saved per CV, based on the average time recruiters spend reformatting, correcting, and exporting candidate documents. The cost figure is your hourly rate × team size × CVs per month × time saved. Saply's monthly cost is subtracted so you see your true net benefit.
