• Abstract: We present a method to estimate the quantum Fisher information (QFI) of many-body quantum states in the presence of decoherence, where its direct evaluation requires the full spectral resolution of the density matrix. We show that, for many-body wave functions known analytically in the occupation-number basis, systematic lower bounds to the QFI can be mapped onto expectation values over a classical probability distribution defined by the wave function amplitudes. This mapping enables efficient estimation via Markov-chain Monte Carlo sampling, with a computational cost that scales as a `slow' exponential ($e^{b L}$ with $b \lesssim 0.6$) and remains manageable for system sizes well beyond exact diagonalization. We specify this framework to Jastrow-Gutzwiller wave functions. We characterize their metrological content by identifying the observables that maximize the QFI and the corresponding scaling with $L$. Then, we analyze the QFI under three physically motivated noise channels: local dephasing, local amplitude damping, and global depolarizing. We compare polynomial and Krylov-based lower bounds across these channels, relating their behavior to the effective rank of the noisy density matrix and to the structure of the operator generating the parameter encoding. The framework extends naturally to other analytically known wave functions and to a broader class of information-theoretic quantities beyond the QFI.
