Return on Investment Agent
This use case features one of the 18 ready-to-use AI agents that helped us win the “Agent Race to Sapphire 2026.” What does the Return on Investment Agent do? The agent helps business users capture and evaluate the key assumptions required for a structured return on investment assessment of BTP extensions, AI use cases, and agents.
The starting point: Uncertainty in evaluating business cases
Assessing the return on investment of BTP extensions, AI use cases, and agents requires a variety of assumptions regarding expected benefits, effort, and other influencing factors. At the beginning of an initiative, important information is often missing or stakeholders have different perspectives on the expected outcomes. As a result, RoI evaluations can become time-consuming, inconsistent, and difficult to compare.
What does our solution look like? Structured RoI assessment for innovation initiatives
The Return on Investment Agent interactively guides business users through the assumptions required for a meaningful RoI assessment. Key influencing factors are captured, structured, and documented in a consistent manner. The solution supports the evaluation of BTP extensions, agents, and AI use cases within the Innovation Factory and provides a solid foundation for investment decisions. In three steps, this means:

- Capture key evaluation factors
The agent asks targeted questions about expected benefits, implementation effort, and other economically relevant factors. - Structure and validate assumptions
The collected information is documented consistently and checked for completeness to establish a reliable evaluation basis. - Prepare the RoI assessment
The agent consolidates the relevant assumptions and prepares the information for a structured return on investment evaluation and decision-making process.
The result? Better-informed investment decisions
The result includes more structured and consistent RoI assessments for BTP extensions, agents, and AI use cases. Manual effort for gathering relevant assumptions is reduced, while business users receive guided support throughout the evaluation process. The solution creates a transparent foundation for innovation decisions and enables more comparable assessments across Innovation Factory initiatives.
