## Description

This MCP server provides specialized economic modeling for AI-driven document processing. It allows AI agents to calculate the total cost of ownership by accounting for OCR base costs, document complexity multipliers, and human-in-the-loop validation expenses. Use `get_total_workflow_estimate` to get a complete end-to-end cost projection including volume discounts. It is designed to help businesses understand the trade-offs between extraction depth and accuracy requirements.

## Tools

### calculate_accuracy_validation_cost
Determines the additional cost incurred by human verification efforts to meet accuracy targets

### get_total_workflow_estimate
Provides a holistic view of the entire economic model, combining OCR, complexity, validation, and discounts

### get_unit_economics
Calculates the core cost metrics for a specific document processing batch

### get_volume_discount_tier
Identifies the applicable discount multiplier based on the processing volume

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the total cost for processing 500 documents with 2000 total pages at $0.05 per page, assuming a complexity of 1.2 and advanced extraction?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total cost for this batch is $120.00, with a unit cost of $0.24 per document.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the validation cost for 1000 documents if a human takes 30 seconds per document at a rate of $25 per hour.
```

**Response:** 
```
The total validation cost for 1000 documents is $208.33.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Give me a full estimate for 10,000 documents, 50,000 pages, $0.02 base OCR, 1.0 complexity, standard extraction, 95% target accuracy, $30/hr labor, and 45 seconds per validation.
```

**Response:** 
```
The estimated total workflow cost is $1,312.50, which includes a discounted total after applying volume tiers.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does document complexity affect the cost?**
Complexity acts as a multiplier on the base OCR cost. For example, using `get_unit_economics` with a higher complexity multiplier for scanned documents will result in a higher cost per document compared to digital PDFs.

**Can I estimate the cost of human validation?**
Yes, you can use `calculate_accuracy_validation_cost` to determine the additional expense incurred by human-in-the-loop verification efforts needed to meet specific accuracy targets.

**Does the tool account for volume discounts?**
Yes, the `get_volume_discount_tier` tool identifies applicable discounts, and `get_total_workflow_estimate` incorporates these discounts into the final cost projection.
