Measuring AI productivity as return, not activity

Topic

Most teams can tell you how much their AI is doing. Very few can tell you whether it is making money. The cloud era taught this lesson once already: we counted commits, then features shipped, and called it productivity, until it became clear that activity is not the same as value. AI is repeating the pattern with a far larger bill.

In this 30-minute session, OPTIMAZE co-CEO Ralf Capel breaks down how to measure productivity as a return, the unit economics that actually prove it, and how to avoid the vanity metrics that quietly drained the last technology cycle. The session will have OPTIMAZE curate the chat for Q&A.

What you will learn

  • Why activity metrics like commits and tickets closed mislead, and what to measure instead

  • The handful of unit economics that connect AI and cloud spend to revenue and cost

  • How to attribute spend to a customer, product, or workflow so productivity becomes a number, not a claim

  • Why the value of AI is decided in production, not in the demo

Who should attend

Finance and technology leaders who own technology spend and need to defend its return.
