In this solo YouTube pitch, Tom Krieglstein highlights the common frustration of meetings that drag on far longer than necessary. He proposes a mobile/web app that anonymously collects each participant’s salary and, once a meeting begins, displays a continuously updating dollar‑amount clock that shows how much the meeting is costing per minute. The visual cost cue is intended to make attendees aware of the financial impact of wasted time and to curb repetitive or overly long discussions. Tom asks viewers to comment on whether the idea is brilliant, ridiculous, or likely to be stolen, seeking validation and feedback from the audience.

Chapters

Raise your hand if you have ever been in a meeting that ran way too long. I know I'm not the only one. I should see every hand up. I have an idea and I need you to tell me in the chat, in the comments if it is a brilliant idea or a ridiculous idea or one of you is going to steal it and take it yourself. I get it. Here's the idea. It's an app that everyone anonymously puts their salary into. Then as the meeting starts, there's a little clock in the middle of the table that ticks up and it's not a time that's ticking up, it's a dollar amount. So for every minute you see how much money that meeting is costing. That way that if someone in your meeting, AKA you, Jim, if Jim is looping in their conversation over and over and over, you can move on and be like Jim, you looping cost us whatever amount of money. Tell me if you think this is a great app idea or a horrible one in the comments.
