CEO & Founder

The implementation of the tool takes less than 5 minutes, you can even use it without adding salaries and just set up an average salary. Important, you have to be a Google Workspace Administrator to set up the tool, initially. If you aren't, don't worry, we will help you and your administrator to set it up. The tool admins can access a dashboard in which they can see data regarding the meeting health and culture of their organization (meeting cost evolution, average time on meeting per employee, average number of meetings per employee, number of meeting-heavy employees, most expensive recurring meetings etc.).They can see the monetary impact of the as well. In order to do this, they have 3 options: set up an average salary, upload the salaries of their employees via CSV or via automatic connection with their HR system (Gusto, Zenefits, Workday, Factorial, Personio etc.).

Once implemented, the adoption for the employees is very simple. They have to download a Chrome extension and after that they will start seeing the extra information in their Google Calendar, not making them use another tool or change their habits.For CEOs, HR and other execs with salary visibility in the company, our Chrome extension showcases the real cost of the meeting, both when scheduling a new meeting and when the meeting is already scheduled.You can now<a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/shopify-cfo-explains-meeting-cost-105829140.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> have the same tool as Shopify</a>!

Built-in meeting cost calculator: Make people more intentional about their meetings

For the rest of the company (those without salary visibility), the tool does not showcase the real cost, but a comparable and a bar (Affordable, Moderate, Expensive), thus, protecting the salary privacy.Examples of comparables are:<ul><li>Similar to a flight from NYC to LA</li><li>Similar to a five stars hotel night</li><li>Similar to a taxi ride to the airport</li><li>Similar to a Taylor Swift concert ticket</li></ul>

Built-in meeting cost calculator that protects salary privacy for the whole company

Your employees will be reminded every time they schedule a meeting on how to better use the time.Many companies have established meeting guidelines to increase focus time and productivity. For example: <ul><li>Shopify (No meetings Wednesdays)</li><li>Facebook (Mandatory purpose and meeting agenda)</li><li>Spacex and Tesla (Do not create recurrent meetings)</li></ul> When companies establish guidelines, they have to constantly remind them to create any effect and they don't have data about the impact. With Scalar Insight now you can stop reminding everyone and start having real-time data to make data-driven decisions! You can create your own meeting guidelines or choose them from our library. Some examples:<ul><li>Mandatory agenda</li><li>50/25 minutes default time</li><li>No meeting day</li><li>Maximum of attendees</li></ul>
