How much does that meeting actually cost? Enter the number of attendees, their approximate salaries or hourly rates, and the meeting duration. Morph calculates the real dollar cost of the time your team spends in the room. The number might change how you think about recurring meetings. All calculations run locally — salary data never leaves your browser.
Calculate Meeting Cost FreeEnter hourly rates directly or annual salaries that Morph converts automatically. The calculator handles the math of converting annual compensation to per-minute cost.
Add different salary levels for different attendees. A meeting with one executive and five juniors costs differently than six mid-level employees. The calculator accounts for this.
See what a weekly recurring meeting costs per month and per year. A $500 weekly meeting is $26,000 annually — a number that puts the "do we need this meeting?" question in perspective.
Salary information is sensitive data. Morph never uploads, stores, or transmits the numbers you enter. Everything is calculated locally in your browser and disappears when you close the tab.
The average knowledge worker spends 31 hours per month in meetings, according to research by Atlassian. At a fully-loaded cost of $75/hour, that is $2,325 per employee per month — or $27,900 per year — spent sitting in meetings. For a team of 10, that is $279,000 annually in meeting time alone.
The problem is not that meetings exist — it is that most organizations have no visibility into their cost. An hour-long meeting with 8 people at $100/hour is an $800 decision, yet it often gets scheduled with less deliberation than a $50 software purchase. Making the cost visible changes behavior: teams start asking whether this meeting could be an email, whether all 12 people really need to attend, and whether 30 minutes is enough instead of the default 60.
This calculator exists to make that invisible cost visible. Run it before your next recurring meeting review and use the numbers to have an honest conversation about which meetings deliver value that exceeds their cost.
Each attendee's hourly rate (or annual salary converted to hourly) is multiplied by the meeting duration. The individual costs are summed to produce the total meeting cost. For recurring meetings, this total is multiplied by the frequency (weekly, biweekly, monthly) to project annual cost.
For the most accurate picture, use fully-loaded cost (salary + benefits + overhead), which is typically 1.25x to 1.5x base salary. But even using base salary alone produces numbers that put meeting time in perspective.
