Answer all 8 questions to see your score
The score evaluates 8 factors that research shows predict meeting attendance: booking method, calendar invite status, confirmation, lead time, financial commitment, prior relationship, meeting type, and time slot. Each factor adds or subtracts from a base score of 50, resulting in a 0-100 confidence rating. Financial commitments and explicit confirmations have the strongest positive impact.
The tool provides specific, actionable suggestions based on your weakest factors. Common improvements include sending a confirmation message, adding a calendar invite with a video link, or using GhostNot to add a financial stake. Even small actions like a day-before reminder can significantly increase show-up rates.
Behavioral economics research consistently shows that financial stakes dramatically reduce no-show rates. When someone has money on the line, they treat the commitment more seriously. GhostNot uses this principle — requesters stake money when booking, and they get refunded when they show up. This single factor can shift a meeting from 'Coin Flip' to 'Very Likely.'
