Use contribution, not top-line alone
A deal only covers spend through the gross contribution retained after direct delivery costs.
Scenario planning
Model the threshold.
Do not invent the uplift.
This calculator uses your monthly investment, average deal revenue and gross margin to show how many incremental deals would cover the modeled spend. It does not predict traffic, citations, conversions or revenue. Treat the output as a break-even threshold for planning, then test actual Humenta AEO performance against an approved baseline.

—Modeled deal revenue—
Contribution per deal—
Break-even deals are rounded up to a whole deal. This simple model excludes sales-cycle timing, attribution uncertainty, retention, taxes, pass-through costs and delivery capacity.
