Origin:

Talk-o-meter was found at the end of a rainbow and initially developed one sunny day by a talkative unicorn. Well, close, it was developed by the boss of a tech company who had the not too admirable superpower of talking too much on Google Meet.🤦‍♂️ When COVID-19 hit, the entire company realised that they were spending many hours each day on conference calls talking and talking and talking.😩

It was then the crushing realisation hit - maybe, just maybe, the boss was talking too much, reducing the ability for others to contribute and feel heard in meetings. 🤷

After moving rapidly from denial to acceptance in the grief cycle, the boss thought, “What if there was a way for everyone to measure and monitor how long they speak on all web calls?” 🤔
