Price meetings in money and focus — the attendee-hours × loaded-rate math, the recurring multiplier that turns a weekly 30-minutes into a real annual number, and the cost-vs-outcome read that decides what the price buys. Use when asked what does this meeting cost, price our meeting culture, is this recurring meeting worth it, or make the case for fewer attendees. Produces the cost computation with stated assumptions, the recurring annualization, the cost-per-outcome read, and the reduction levers ranked.
What to give it
▸The meeting's shape — attendees (count and rough seniority mix), length, frequency
▸The rate basis — real loaded rates if known, or the placeholder bands (stated as placeholders: loaded cost ≈ 1.3–1.6× salary; senior-heavy rooms price differently than mixed ones)
▸The outcomes — what this meeting demonstrably produces (decisions per month, the artifact, the alignment that prevented X); the meter prices *against* something or it's just a big number
▸The political intent — pruning a calendar? Making a case to a boss? Auditing a culture? The output's framing follows the use
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓Rates are loaded, banded, and labeled as assumptions
✓Recurring meetings show the annualized number
✓The cost is priced against stated outcomes, with unpriceables acknowledged
✓Every lever carries its recomputed price
✓The framing proposes, not prosecutes
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not price with salary-only rates — undercounting discredits the whole meter
Do not present per-instance costs for recurring meetings — the multiplier is the truth
Do not zero the unpriceable outcomes — cohesion is real; the meter flags, judgment weighs
Do not lead with the biggest number as an accusation — converted owners cut meetings; shamed owners defend them
Do not stop at the price — the meter's product is the cheaper-supplier proposal, priced
