A one-page worksheet that turns an idea into a defensible number: the in/out scope list, the feature-to-effort building blocks, the four multipliers (live, interactivity, integration count, non-feature work), a three-point/PERT calculator, and a pre-commit sanity check (reference class, run cost, contingency). Companion to the Fora Soft Learn estimation guide.

Fora Soft Video Engineering Handbook
This scoping and estimation worksheet turns a learning-video idea into a defensible number with scope lists, effort blocks, four multipliers and a PERT calculator. We wrote seven volumes covering the whole video stack; start with Volume 3 for delivery cost and real-time sessions, then Volume 2 for live transport, with Volume 1 for encoding. Written by Nikolay Sapunov, CEO at Fora Soft.
