Full guide: definition, formula, and benchmarksWhy Participant Engagement Score matters for Granola users
A meeting with ten people but only three active participants is really a three-person meeting with seven spectators. Those spectators are paying the cost of attendance without contributing value, and the meeting is missing their perspectives.
For Granola users, engagement scores reveal facilitation patterns - whether certain people dominate discussions, whether quiet voices are encouraged to contribute, and whether meeting size needs to be reduced to enable meaningful participation from everyone.

Participant Speaking Time Distribution
Meeting IntelligenceParticipant Speaking Time Distribution measures how meeting speaking time is allocated across participants. It quantifies the Gini coefficient of speaking time, identifying meetings dominated by one or two voices versus those with balanced participation. Balanced distribution correlates with higher-quality decisions and better participant satisfaction.
View metricMeeting Attendance Rate
Meeting IntelligenceAttendance Rate = Actual Attendees / Invited Participants × 100
Meeting Attendance Rate measures the percentage of invited participants who actually attend a meeting. Low attendance suggests that meetings are perceived as low-value, poorly timed, or include too broad an invite list. High attendance indicates relevance and effective scheduling.
View metricMeeting Outcome Effectiveness
Meeting IntelligenceOutcome Effectiveness = Meetings with Tangible Outcomes / Total Meetings × 100
Meeting Outcome Effectiveness measures the proportion of meetings that produce at least one tangible outcome - a decision made, an action item assigned, a problem resolved, or a plan agreed upon. It separates productive meetings from informational sessions and status updates that could be asynchronous.
View metricCross-Team Collaboration Rate
Meeting IntelligenceCross-Team Rate = Meetings with Multi-Team Participants / Total Meetings × 100
Cross-Team Collaboration Rate measures the percentage of meetings that include participants from two or more different teams or departments. It serves as a proxy for organisational connectivity and the degree to which teams are breaking down silos through direct interaction.
