Monday Capacity Forecast
Predict team capacity 4 weeks out based on current pipeline.
Nora looks at your Monday backlog, estimates lead time, and forecasts when resources will be available. Plan next quarter with data.
Every week, Nora reads your Monday backlog and active items. Using historical velocity (how long items typically stay in 'In Progress'), Nora forecasts when current work will finish and when each team member will be free. It generates a capacity calendar: 'Alice will be available Mar 25. Bob is booked through Apr 5.' This lets you plan hiring, onboarding, and project intake based on reality, not guesses. Works for services/agencies especially: you can tell clients 'We can start your project Apr 1' with confidence.
Runs every friday using Monday.com, run by your Project Manager.
