Sprint Capacity Calculator API

POST https://api.findutils.com/api/tools/sprint-capacity-calculator/execute

Calculate a team's realistic sprint capacity in hours and story points. Starts from each member's hours per day × the working days in the sprint, then subtracts meeting overhead, public holidays that fall on working days, and per-member PTO; returns the deductions, final hours, utilization rate, recommended story points (final hours ÷ hours per point), the average of any historical velocity you pass, and a per-member breakdown.

Request body

application/json

team

array required

Team members: { name, hours_per_day (default 8), role }.
