I think the goal is to replace workers who cost $10,000/mo with an AI agent that costs $8,000/mo

$8000/month is way too low. If you're only spending $8000/month on AI you're in drastic danger of being replaced by a more efficient AI firm.

You should replace a team of 7 costing $70,000/mo with a team of 2 costing $30,000/mo and $100,000/mo in ai tokens.

If you replace 100 then that's 800k/mo spend. Would that do?

That's a decent start, but if we're talking shop you might as well bump to at least 1.2-1.3M just to play it safe.
