A QUICK WALKTHROUGH

How to use this tool

  1. Enter the number of people, average hourly rate, currency, and duration.
  2. Review total cost, per-minute cost, per-person cost, and person-hours.
  3. Use the timer to start, pause, or reset a live meeting estimate.

Transparent arithmetic

Total cost = people × average hourly rate × duration in hours. Per-minute cost divides the total by duration minutes, and per-person cost divides it by people. Person-hours = people × duration in hours.

Local and estimate only

All calculations and the timer run in this browser. The result uses your inputs and does not infer salaries, taxes, benefits, revenue, or productivity.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions

Does the timer charge anyone?

No. It only updates a local estimate while the timer runs.

What does average hourly rate mean?

Enter one blended hourly rate for the people in the meeting, using the selected currency.

Can I pause and resume?

Yes. Pause freezes elapsed time; reset returns the timer to zero.
