Measure Your Productivity Objectively
Instead of a vague feeling of "did I work hard today?", this calculator uses three concrete metrics — focus hours, tasks completed, and interruptions — to give you an objective productivity score out of 100. Tracking your score over time reveals patterns and helps you identify where to improve.
How the Score Is Calculated
Focus ratio relative to your goal accounts for 40 points, completed tasks for up to 40 points, and interruptions can deduct up to 30 points. Protecting your focus blocks matters as much as filling your work hours.
Core Strategies for Higher Scores
Schedule your most important tasks during your peak energy hours, typically the morning. Batch your email and messaging responses to specific time slots rather than responding immediately. Even two uninterrupted hours of deep work often outperforms eight hours of fragmented effort.
Frequently Asked Questions
Fill your entire goal work hours with focused effort, complete enough tasks, and minimize interruptions. Interruptions have the biggest negative impact on your score, so protecting your focus blocks is essential.
Turn off notifications during focus blocks and schedule dedicated deep-work time on your calendar. The Pomodoro technique — 25 minutes of focus followed by a 5-minute break — is also effective at reducing interruptions.
