How it works
Salary is turned into an hourly rate, multiplied by the number of people and the meeting length. If it repeats, the weekly cost is scaled to 52 weeks.
6 people · 60 min · 60,000/yr ÷ 2,087 h → 172.50
Tips
- Benefits and overhead usually add 20–40% on top of salary — raise the pay to include them.
- A shorter default (25 or 50 minutes) saves more than you think on recurring meetings.
- Everything runs in your browser; nothing is stored.
