Enterprise deployment of Agentic Artificial Intelligence (AI) into scaled production remains lower than industry expectations would suggest. One of the major challenges is the unpredictability of Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and Return on Investment (ROI) from Proof of Concept (PoC) to scaled production. The major challenge is that costs are dependent on numerous factors and ROI is challenging to forecast.

This ABI Research analysis provides a comprehensive view of the expected ROI for Agentic AI systems to provide stakeholders with quantifiable metrics to support decision-making. It incorporates all associated costs—ranging from strategic planning, design, and development to deployment, operations, and lifecycle management.

Single Agent deployments are expected to generate the greatest ROI over the next five years, reaching a 174% return after Year 5. This is followed my Multi Agent deployment at the edge (159% ROI) and traditional Multi Agents (60% ROI).
