ADPIT Stealing Your Margin Before Govt Gets a Chance
Is the Agency Digital Project Inefficiency Tax quietly stealing your margin?
Every studio pays an inefficiency tax. Most don’t see it because it hides inside the everyday grind. Legacy tech, slow tooling, bloated workflows, and the tired ritual of setting up every project from scratch keep nibbling away at margin until whole weeks disappear.
Think about the pattern. A new brief arrives. Someone digs out the last project. Someone else rewrites the same boilerplate. Folders get rebuilt. Components get stitched together again. QA rechecks the things that should never have broken. None of this is creative. None of it is strategic. All of it is cost.
This rinse and repeat work is where productivity goes to die. It is the hidden line item that finance never sees but every studio lead feels. Multiply that by dozens of jobs a month and you have a margin thief that never clocks out.
Blutui removes that drag. Automated setup, reusable components, predictable build environments, and a single controlled platform give studios hours back on every job. Instead of paying the inefficiency tax, teams move faster, stay consistent, and increase the amount of client revenue they can say yes to without adding overhead.
The agencies that win are the ones that stop accepting inefficiency as part of their craft. Modern production needs modern tooling. Blutui was built for the studios that are done watching their margin leak through avoidable repetition, legacy workflows and generalist tech.
If you want your team working at its true capacity instead of feeding legacy workflows, it might be time to lift the lid on that tax.
