How It Works
Define your tasks
Break down your project into specific production modules and creative milestones.
Assign hours by role
Allocate specific time requirements based on artist, developer, or designer roles.
Adjust team, see time & cost
Real-time scenario updates to balance resources against your budget and deadline.
Estimate in 5 Simple Steps
Go from scope to team, timing, and cost with a workflow built for real production planning.
01
Add your tasks and quantity
Start by listing the tasks or deliverables in your project and setting how many times each one needs to be completed. This can represent screens, assets, levels, features, variations, or any other production units.
Add task rows + amount values
02
Add the required roles
Create the roles involved in delivery — such as UI/UX, 2D Artist, Animator, Developer, Tech Artist, QA, Producer, or any custom role your pipeline needs.
Add / rename roles
03
Assign hours by role
Enter how many hours each role needs per task unit. This turns your estimate from a rough guess into a realistic production model.
Fill hours in the table
04
Adjust team size, rates, and schedule
Set available people per role, add optional hourly rates, and define workdays or a target deadline. The estimator instantly recalculates team load, duration, and budget impact.
Adjust people, rates, and deadline
05
Review duration, cost, and bottlenecks
See total hours, estimated project duration, overall cost, and where your production bottlenecks are. If the deadline is too tight, the tool shows where you may need to add people.
