Inputs

Team capacity

How it works

Estimate capacity from reality, not optimism.

01

Start with gross hours

Team size, sprint length, and workday hours create the theoretical maximum capacity for the sprint.

02

Subtract real constraints

Planned absence, meetings, interruptions, reviews, and context switching reduce what the team can responsibly commit.

03

Keep a delivery buffer

A buffer protects the sprint from production issues, unexpected QA findings, and release coordination work.

Best for

Agile sprint planning, team forecasting, and delivery reviews.

Use this calculator before sprint planning, roadmap commitment, release planning, or weekly delivery review. It helps teams explain why committed work should be lower than calendar capacity.

What is a good focus factor?

Many teams start between 60% and 75%. Teams with heavy meetings, support load, or frequent release work should use a lower value.

How should I convert hours to story points?

The point estimate is intentionally rough. Use your team's historical velocity when available, and use this calculator mainly to avoid overcommitting.

How does Korespace help after calculation?

Korespace connects the capacity decision to work items, owners, release risk, AI summaries, and retrospectives so planning improves over time.
