How are the savings calculated?
These estimates are based on real-world field usage. They give a realistic ballpark -- adjust them to your own activity.
Average trip cost
The total cost of a site visit includes transportation (fuel or public transit), travel time (valued at the technician's hourly rate), and downtime. In France, the average cost of a technical visit is estimated between 150 and 300 euros depending on the sector and distance.
Remote resolution rate
Companies using remote visual assistance find that an average of 40% of interventions that would have required a site visit can be resolved remotely. This rate varies by sector: it's higher for diagnostics and first-level support, and lower for complex physical interventions.
Time saved per session
A visual assistance session lasts on average 10 to 15 minutes, compared to 1.5 to 3 hours for a site visit with intervention. The time savings are therefore considerable, both for the technician and for the client who doesn't have to wait for a technician to arrive.
Environmental impact
Each avoided trip represents an average of 20 to 50 km of car travel, meaning 4 to 10 kg of CO2 saved. For a team of 10 technicians, visual assistance can represent a reduction of several tons of CO2 per year.

Frequently Asked Questions — ROI
- How is GroundCam's ROI calculated?
- The calculation is based on three variables: the number of trips per month, the average cost per trip, and the remote resolution rate (40% on average). Savings correspond to trips avoided thanks to video pre-diagnosis, multiplied by their unit cost.
- Are the displayed savings realistic?
- Yes. The data is based on field feedback from user companies. The 40% remote resolution rate is a conservative average: it's higher for diagnostics and first-level support, and lower for complex physical interventions.
- How quickly is the investment paid back?
- Most companies recoup their GroundCam subscription from the first month. A single avoided trip (€200 on average) more than covers the cost of several video sessions. The return on investment is immediate and measurable.
