The plan is over capacity

Planned work is too high for realistic focus time. Cut scope, split work, or move dates before the team commits.

Use capacity planning before work is overloaded

This calculator turns planning assumptions into a quick capacity check. Use it during sprint planning, launch planning, or weekly workload reviews to decide whether the plan fits before tasks are assigned.

Start with real availability

Account for working days, part-time schedules, meetings, and known interruptions before estimating delivery capacity.

Compare demand with focus time

Planned work should be measured against usable focus capacity, not ideal calendar hours.

Protect a planning buffer

Reserve time for urgent requests, rework, support, and blockers so the plan survives normal surprises.
