    Real activity, conservative math

    1. 1

      Count the work

      We count each task the AI completed in October from Lofty platform records: messages sent, posts published, calls connected.

    2. 2

      Price it in minutes

      Each task gets an estimate of how long it takes an agent by hand, with a low, mid and high value.

    3. 3

      Add it up

      Count × minutes gives the hours saved, summed across the three AI agents and Cowork. Headline figures use the mid estimate.

    • Covers October 1–31, 2026 (UTC). Test and Lofty staff accounts are excluded.
    • Repeated work is counted once where it makes sense: lead follow-up and homeowner emails count once per lead or homeowner per month, not per message.
    • Social posts count once per channel they're published to. Morning briefs count when delivered.
    • Cowork counts each conversation once for each kind of help it gave, across the web, the mobile app, the email and text editor, the help bot and the Cowork workspace. A draft counts only if it wasn't sent another way.

    77%

    of solo agents using AI received a daily AI morning brief.

    62%

    of these agents using AI asked Cowork for help, the most of any group.
