A live running cost counter for meetings based on who is in the room.

Nobody has claimed this yet. Be first.

The idea

Before a meeting starts, pick attendees by role and the timer shows cost ticking up in real time. Teams see what a long status meeting really costs. It is a light nudge toward shorter, better meetings.

Your first AI prompts

Paste these into Claude, Cursor or Lovable, in order. Check that each one works before moving on.

PROMPT 1 OF 3

Build a web app called Meeting Cost Timer. A team admin sets up roles with an hourly cost each (for example engineer, designer, manager). The main screen lets anyone pick how many people of each role are attending and press start.

PROMPT 2 OF 3

Show a large running cost counter that updates every second, elapsed time, and cost per minute. Add a stop button that saves the meeting with name, duration, attendees by role and total cost.
