What Team Preview Shows

Team Preview reads from your account's team meeting feed — a shared Firestore collection where meetings are recorded as they're completed. It shows:

SectionDescription
SummaryTotal number of records in the team feed and combined total meeting cost across all records.
By DepartmentMeeting cost and count broken down by department tag. Departments are set in Settings → Meeting Context → Department. Untagged meetings appear as "Untagged".
By MemberMeeting cost and count per team member (identified by user ID, display name, or email). Shows who is driving the most meeting cost.

How the Team Feed Works

Every time a meeting ends while you're signed in, MeetingCost writes a record to the team meetings collection in Firestore at teamMeetings/{your-email}/meetings. This feed is scoped to your own email — your data is not visible to other users unless they share your account credentials.

The Team Preview panel reads the 100 most recent meetings from this feed and aggregates them for display.

👥
Cross-user team visibility — where multiple team members' data appears in a shared view — is planned for a future release. The current Team Preview shows your own collected team data only.

Team Patterns

The Recurring Patterns panel also includes a Team Patterns tab that analyses this same team feed for recurring meeting patterns, frequency trends, cost per attendee, async candidates, and ROI scores.

Requirements

  • You must be signed in to a MeetingCost account for team feed data to be collected and displayed.
  • Meetings must be completed while signed in — meetings logged before sign-in are not retroactively added to the team feed.
  • Department tags are optional but strongly recommended for meaningful breakdowns.
