This free calculator helps founders and operations leads estimate the ideal team size based on project volume, workload, and weekly delivery hours.
We ask for the number of projects you’re managing, the hours each project needs per week, and how much your team can realistically deliver. Then we calculate how many full-time hires you’d need to meet that demand — with or without overlap. It’s a fast way to see if your current team can keep up or if you’re running a hidden capacity gap.
An FTE is a standard measure for one full-time employee, based on around 35 hours of productive work per week. This calculator tells you how many FTEs your workload would require, even if you're hiring part-time or contractors.
Even if your team is in place, unplanned overload leads to burnout, late delivery, and dropped priorities. This calculator gives you a signal before problems show up — so you can hire proactively or restructure more intelligently.
