Frequently asked questions

What does a productivity score of 100 mean?

It means you met or exceeded your target tasks per hour.

Can I get a score above 100?

No, the score is capped at 100 to keep it intuitive as a percentage.

What if I work 0 hours?

The calculator uses a minimum of 0.01 hours to avoid division by zero, so you'll get a very high score if you complete any tasks.
