About Effort & Time Estimator

The Effort & Time Estimator uses three-point (PERT) estimation — an optimistic, most-likely and pessimistic number per task — to produce a weighted estimate and a confidence range, in person-days or story points. Your work auto-saves as you go — a MyPMP membership syncs it across every device, and you can export to PDF, CSV or JSON anytime.

How it works

1. Open it — no account needed, nothing to install.
2. Fill it in — everything auto-saves in your browser as you type.
3. Share it — print, export, or become a member to sync across devices.

Frequently asked questions

What is three-point estimation?＋

A technique that uses three estimates per task — optimistic, most likely and pessimistic — to account for uncertainty instead of a single guess.

What is the PERT formula?＋

Expected estimate = (Optimistic + 4 × Most-likely + Pessimistic) ÷ 6. This app also shows the standard deviation as a confidence range.

Person-days or story points?＋

Both — toggle the unit. Use person-days for effort/time and story points for relative agile sizing.
