Premium business tool

Meeting Cost Calculator Pro

Track live meeting cost with calmer visual signals, a traffic-light timing system, and a premium report that shows the extra time and money spent once meetings run over.

Meeting cost calculator Pro

The premium version adds a calm traffic-light timing system, live per-minute cost, stronger overrun reporting, and the first management reporting layer built from saved meetings.

Salary basis

Attendee salary bands

The premium version still keeps the setup practical by using salary bands, but it now feeds into saved meeting records and weekly management reporting.

Weekly management report mock

This is the first premium reporting layer. It uses saved Pro meetings from the current week to show management-style cost, overrun, and output reporting. Monthly reporting and charts come next.

Weekly saved meetings

This table is the first management-reporting mock. It is designed to show whether the level of detail is strong enough before monthly reporting and charts are added.

Most expensive: Not available
No saved meetings are available for the current week yet. Finish and save a Pro meeting to start building the weekly report.

Monthly management report mock

This monthly layer starts to show repeat patterns, recurring meeting exposure, and where overrun or low-value meeting habits may be building. The next stage after this is chart visualisation.

What Pro adds

More control while the meeting is still happening

The premium version is designed to make overruns and wasted time more visible before the meeting is simply accepted as normal.

Traffic-light timing

Stay green while comfortably inside the allocated time, move into amber during the warning window, and turn red once the meeting is clearly overrunning.

Per-minute visibility

See the estimated cost per minute, the planned meeting cost, and the extra cost building up once the session goes over.

Stronger overrun reporting

Finish the session and review the final warning status, extra time, extra cost, and the difference between planned and actual meeting spend.

Traffic-light logic

How the timing signal works

Green

The meeting is still comfortably inside the allocated time and outside the warning window.

Amber

The meeting is within five minutes before the allocated end time or within five minutes after it.

Red

The meeting has gone more than five minutes beyond the allocated time and the overrun cost is now clearly increasing.
