Human-AI Interaction Time (HAIT): The new standard for measuring AI-supported economic efficiency.

The TimeSpin time and task recording system makes it possible for the first time to see how much human working time is actually involved in AI-supported processes.

It also creates a new basis for controlling, calculating, and evaluating the profitability of AI use. Bremen, February 6, 2026 Artificial intelligence has arrived in companies. Strategy papers, presentations, analyses, software designs, marketing texts, and decision-making bases are increasingly being created today in collaboration between humans and AI. But while technological progress is rapid, companies have so far lacked a key element: a reliable metric for the actual human time and decision-making effort involved in working with AI. Human-AI Interaction Time (HAIT) is a new, clearly defined term that closes this gap and has the potential to become the standard term for AI-supported knowledge work.

The blind spot of modern companies: AI work without measurability CEOs, entrepreneurs, and controllers today face a structural problem: AI is being used, but its economic benefits are difficult to assess. How much working time is actually spent on AI interactions? Which roles and departments use AI productively, and where does it only create additional work?

Does AI really lead to efficiency gains or merely to a shift in work? Is the use of AI profitable, scalable, and controllable? Traditional time models such as project times, booking times, or attendance models no longer apply here. The crucial work takes place between the systems: in prompting, checking, correcting, and deciding.

Until now, this time has been invisible. What is Human-AI Interaction Time (HAIT)? Human-AI Interaction Time (HAIT) refers to the time during which humans actively work with AI systems to generate, evaluate, and iterate results and build decisions on them. HAIT includes, among other things: Formulating and adjusting prompts

Checking, evaluating, and correcting AI results Making technical, strategic, or economic decisions based on AI outputs Iterative loops between humans and AI HAIT is therefore not classic working time, but a new category of cognitive value creation that is becoming central in the AI age.

Why HAIT is crucial for CEOs, entrepreneurs, and controllers For corporate management, HAIT is more than a theoretical concept--it is a management tool. 1. Evaluate the economic efficiency of AI Only those who know how much human interaction time AI actually ties up can assess whether the use of AI is efficient, excessive, or economically viable.

2. Measure productivity realistically AI does not automatically save time. HAIT reveals where productivity increases and where new expenses arise. 3. Make informed investment decisions For the first time, HAIT creates a basis for evaluating AI tools, licenses, and integrations from a business perspective, not based on gut feeling, but on actual time spent. 4. Accurately reflect the new reality of work
Knowledge work is undergoing structural change. HAIT provides the language to accurately describe this reality in management, controlling, and reporting. TimeSpin: Making AI work processes visible and calculable for the first time TimeSpin is the first system that makes human-AI interaction time practically measurable without monitoring or tracking individual content, but by consciously marking real interaction phases. A roll of the dice and the time spent is defined. TimeSpin thus creates: Transparency about AI-supported work processes A new database for cost and performance accounting Comparability between tasks, roles, and organizational units A basis for assessing the profitability of AI use

For the first time, companies can answer: How much human time do we actually invest in using AI productively - and what are the economic benefits? HAIT as a new management term in the AI age Human-AI Interaction Time is more than just a key figure. It is a new model for thinking about work, productivity, and value creation in the interaction between humans and machines.

Just as terms such as "project time," "billable hours," and "productive time" have shaped previous working environments, HAIT is becoming the reference term for AI-based knowledge work of the future. Companies that want to use AI strategically need not only technology, but also measurability, controllability, and economic efficiency. HAIT provides the language for this. TimeSpin provides the system.
