See overload before the deadline sees it for you.

Compare assigned work with realistic team capacity over a planning period. Useful for agencies, marketing teams, operations, and any team where “we’re busy” is not specific enough.

How to read the result

Under 80%

Usually enough room for variability, reviews, and new work if estimates are reasonable.

80–100%

Tight. Small surprises can push deadlines, especially if work is unevenly distributed.

Over 100%

Something has to move: scope, deadline, staffing, sequencing, or expectations.

This is a planning model, not a performance score. Capacity varies by role and work type.

Capacity is a team constraint, not a character flaw.

Make workload visible, prioritize deliberately, and stop treating chronic overcommitment as motivation.
