A local MCP server that gives an assistant unit-cost figures for 13 back-office tasks, comparing people with software in the US, Greece and Ukraine.
- What you can do
- Provides unit-cost data for 13 back-office tasks, comparing human labor with software across the US, Greece and Ukraine, with cited sources. No tool list is published, so the exact queries and output format are not documented.
- When to use it
- Useful when comparing the cost of staffing versus software for routine back-office work, or when you need country-specific cost figures with sources for a business case.
- Requirements
- Runs as a local process on the user's machine via the npm package nika-cost-of-work-mcp over stdio. Desktop only; no authentication, environment variables or headers are declared.
