A live per-second dollar ticker for your meetings. Set headcount + average salary, hit start, and watch the running cost climb. No signup, no backend — everything runs in your browser. Share the running total to make the cost visceral. Free. A 00-lab experiment.
Does the salary input factor in part-time vs full-time or just take the raw number as the hourly cost? Curious how it handles someone like a contractor billing a different rate than a salaried employee on the same call.
Does the salary input default to a median figure or am I plugging in actual loaded comp, and is there a way to split out contractors vs FTE so the number reflects what we're really spending?
The ticking sound effect is a nice touch, makes the cost feel real instead of just a number on a screen. Cranked it up during a meeting that should have been an email and finally got folks to wrap up.
Finally dragged my team off a 90-minute "sync" thanks to this. Watching the number climb in real time is uncomfortably effective at shutting up scope creep.
Does the salary input let me set different rates per role, or is it a single average for everyone in the meeting?
Love how it runs entirely client-side with zero signup friction. The per-second ticking feels almost uncomfortably honest, which is exactly the point.
