New Hubstaff Research: How AI Helps BPOs and VA Agencies Boost Productivity and Reclaim Revenue

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hubstaff has released a new guidebook designed to help Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) firms and Virtual Assistant (VA) agencies strengthen team operations and improve performance through practical AI adoption. The Lean Advantage playbook delivers a clear 30-day plan for leaders who want to reduce waste, streamline workflows, and raise output across distributed teams.

Hubstaff's Productivity Tracking Software: Data Highlights

Recent analysis from Hubstaff's productivity tracker reveals how meaningful even modest AI adoption can be. According to anonymized activity data from teams using Hubstaff's productivity tracking software:

• Teams using AI recorded 30 minutes less unproductive time per day.
• For a 50-person BPO team, this small daily improvement equals 500 hours saved each month.
• At a $25 hourly rate, that translates to $12,500 in reclaimed productivity monthly.
• Over the course of a full year, the gain reaches 6,000 hours and $150,000 redirected to focused work.

Why This Matters for BPOs and VA Agencies

The new guidebook explains how global BPOs and VA agencies can replicate this lift through a structured month-long process. Leaders get detailed weekly steps to improve delegation, tighten accountability structures, and use AI to reduce repetitive work without disrupting existing workflows.

"AI isn't replacing the team," said Jared Brown, co-founder & CEO of Hubstaff. "It's removing the drag that slows people down. When teams have fewer small blockers, they stay on track, produce higher-quality work, and feel more confident in the day-to-day. That's where the gains come from."

The Lean Advantage guide also includes templates, checklists, and real examples of how distributed teams can use AI tools to simplify communication, elevate client delivery, and reduce time lost to avoidable back-and-forth.

AI tools paired with a productivity tracker can help teams:

• Reduce repetitive or low-value tasks
• Improve workflow consistency across shifts and regions
• Strengthen client delivery timelines
• Keep remote teams aligned with fewer delays
• Turn scattered activity data into clearer workforce insights
