How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter the story points completed in each of the last 3–6 sprints.
  2. The calculator computes the average and rolling velocity.
  3. Review the average velocity to set the sprint commitment for the upcoming sprint.
  4. Avoid overcommitting beyond average velocity — it leads to incomplete sprints.
  5. Track velocity trend over time; a declining trend often signals team capacity or quality issues.
