Faster, fewer errors

from your logsPart of the ten-minute kit. All nine metrics

What it tells you

Whether the AI feature actually saves time and reduces mistakes, compared with doing the task without it. Efficiency is the time; performance is the error rate. Report both.

How, from your logs

Time on task and error count per task, with and without the AI feature, on the same tasks. Add re-check time: how long people spend verifying AI output.
