Meetings cost money. BurnRate shows you exactly how much — live, as it happens.
Add your participants, set their hourly cost, hit start. A bold counter ticks up in real time. Every time the meeting burns through another chunk of cash, a clean ping plays. It's a quiet, persistent reminder that the clock is running and the budget is melting.
No more 60-minute status updates that should have been a 5-minute message. No more nine people in a room when three would do. BurnRate makes the invisible cost visible — and meetings get shorter, sharper, and worth showing up for.
WHY BURNRATE
Most meetings have no sense of urgency because no one sees the price tag
A one-hour meeting with eight people often costs more than a flight to Paris
When the cost is visible, conversations get tighter — fast
