What is your idle capacity costing you?
You have room for more clients than you currently have. That room isn't free. It's revenue you could be billing and aren't, and it doesn't come back. This works out how much, using your numbers.

What those open slots are worth if they stay open.
All figures are estimates based on the assumptions you enter.
Fill the slots you actually have
That number isn’t a projection we made up. It’s your own figures, and it keeps adding up every month the slots stay open. We size the engagement to your capacity, not the other way round. If you have room for three clients, 6 qualified meetings is the right number. Sixty wouldn’t be.

No hidden coefficients.
Everything below is arithmetic on the numbers you entered. No benchmark, no industry average, and no assumption we didn't ask you for.
Capacity is perishable. Unlike stock, an empty delivery slot in March can't be sold in June. The month just passes. That's the whole argument this tool exists to make legible.
- Unused capacity, per month
- Open slots × average monthly value of a client. Nothing else. Three slots you could fill but have not is three times your average client value, every month, for as long as they stay open.
- Over 12 months
- The monthly figure × 12. This is the number worth comparing against any growth investment, because it’s what a year of standing still costs.
- Over a full contract term
- The monthly figure × the contract length you entered. Managed security is a retained service, so a slot left open for a year isn’t one year of lost revenue. It’s the whole contract that never started.
- What it deliberately does not model
- No churn assumption, no ramp period, no delivery cost. All of those would reduce the figure, and a calculator that argues against itself with invented inputs isn’t more honest, just less usable. Treat the output as a ceiling on the opportunity, not a forecast.
Questions about this calculator.
Is my data sent anywhere?
No. The whole calculation runs in your browser. There’s no form submission, no analytics event carrying your figures, and nothing stored.
You can check that by opening your network tab while you type, or by disconnecting from the internet after the page loads. The calculator keeps working.
What should I put for "clients you could onboard"?
The honest number, which is usually lower than the optimistic one. Ask how many more clients you could take on in the next 90 days without your response times slipping or your engineers working weekends.
If the answer is zero, the tool has told you something useful. Your constraint is delivery, not pipeline, and more meetings would make things worse rather than better.
Why does the figure look so large?
Because recurring revenue compounds over a contract term, and most owners have never multiplied it out. Three open slots across a two-year contract is seventy-two client-months of billing that never happens.
It’s a ceiling rather than a forecast, because it assumes every slot fills and every client stays the full term. The point is the order of magnitude, not the decimal.
Turn this into pipeline.
Reading about demand doesn’t book meetings. A 45-minute call gets you an honest read on whether 6 qualified meetings is realistic in your market, and a written scope if it is.
