1. What is an hour of your time worth?
Use what you pay the person doing the admin, or what you would pay to replace them. Owners often leave themselves out, so be fair to yourself.
2. Hours per week on admin
Rough is fine, just tap what feels right, then fine-tune with + and -. Count everyone in the business, not just you. Leave a line at 0 if it does not apply.
3. Money that leaks out (optional)
Your best guess per week, to match the hours above. Leave at 0 if you are not sure.
4. Software you pay for each week (optional)
Many venues pay for several separate tools. Tap the closest typical figure for each one you use, then fine-tune with + and -. Leave a line at 0 if you do not use it, and use your own bills where you know them. Monthly prices are shown as weekly (monthly x 12 / 52).
Typical UK list prices, excluding VAT, for entry to mid-range plans at a single small site, as published by vendors and comparison sites in 2026: EPOS, table booking, rota and timekeeping, compliance, accounting. Real bills vary by plan, staff numbers and contract, so treat these as a starting point, not a quote.
Your estimate
Worked out from the numbers you entered, nothing else.
Where we could help
Based on your biggest areas. These are the kinds of work we do, a starting point for a conversation, not a quote.
Fewer separate subscriptions
You listed a week across separate tools. Our approach is to automate what can be automated first, then bring your till, inventory, timekeeping and compliance together in HospIQ, our hospitality platform, with more modules on the way. We would look at what you actually pay and where tools overlap before suggesting anything. This is not a price quote or a promise of a particular saving.
A what-if you choose yourself, to help you picture it. It is not a prediction or a promise of what we would achieve.
For context: one industry estimate puts compliance admin alone at 6–12 hours per site per week in UK hospitality, roughly £5,500–£11,000 a year in manager time (Spoke & Stringer, May 2026, source). That is a third-party estimate, not an NLK result. Your figures above are what matter.
