Atelier · Effort protocol

All the work at a glance — the effort protocol.

Tired of sifting through countless emails, spreadsheets, or paper notes in order to find out who did what, when, and why?

With our effort protocol you see at a glance what kind of work has been done on your project, how much effort it required, and when it has been successfully implemented.

The effort protocol also shows you the vouchers you've bought as a bonus. The relevant calculations happen in real time.

Good afternoon, Mara Vogt

Effort protocol

Every effort Temu puts into your project, and every bonus that flows back into it, recorded cycle by cycle. The circles carry the net use of your allowance at that point.

What the effort protocol shows

The numbers on the demonstration above refer to the entries below. Each entry links back to its place on the dashboard.

The cycle on a line

Every entry of the cycle, in order. Effort sits on the line as a ring: the effort so far in red, the bonus so far in green around it, the net use in the middle. A voucher hangs beneath as a green flag, and the dark fill runs to today’s red dot. The line can be dragged, or moved with the strip beneath it; each date jumps to its row in the ledger.

The balance

Four figures for the cycle. Effort by Temu is everything booked as work; bonus from you is what vouchers add back. Net use is the effort less the bonus, against the allowance of 100%. Left this cycle is what remains until the reset on 22 October.

Show on the dashboard

The ledger

The same entries as the line, as a table: the date, the kind, the entry, the effort or bonus it books, and the net use after it. A change request linked to an entry is named beneath it and opens in Modifications; a confirmed one is marked done.
