# How meeting scores work

Brev scores each recorded meeting's effectiveness out of 100, across goal alignment, decisions, execution, accountability and efficiency.

After a meeting the meeting agent recorded, Brev scores how well it moved your goals forward. The score is out of 100.

## The five parts {#the-five-parts}

The score is the sum of five parts, each out of 20. Each part has three sub-scores, worth 8, 6 and 6 points:

- **Goal alignment**: Goal Coverage, Goal Advancement and Goal Depth: how far the talk covered and moved your goals.
- **Decision velocity**: Resolution Rate, Clarity and Blocker Removal: whether decisions got made, clearly, and blockers cleared.
- **Execution**: Action Density, Strategic Relevance and Progress Review: the actions that came out, and whether progress was reviewed.
- **Accountability**: Owner Specificity, Due Date Clarity and Loop Closure: named owners, clear due dates, and earlier items closed.
- **Efficiency**: Time Leverage, Risk Surfacing and Topic Substance: how well the time was used.

## Where to see it {#where-to-see-it}

- **On a past meeting**: Click the Insights icon at the right of the tab row (not shown on phones). **Effectiveness** shows the score and the five bars. Once earlier meetings have scores, a chart shows them too. With [Meeting Insights](https://help.brev.io/settings-product/#brev-ai) on, click a bar for its sub-scores and Brev's reasoning.
- **On an upcoming meeting**: **Health** shows the cadence's health score and its trend. With the agent off for the cadence, it reads 'Meeting Agent Disabled'.
- **On the Cadences page**: The Cadences Health panel scores all your cadences on the same five parts. It calls them Alignment, Decisions, Execution, Accountability and Efficiency.

## Guidance {#guidance}

Guidance in the Insights panel lists Brev's recommendations, the anti-patterns it spotted, and whether the meeting created forward motion. It shows when [Meeting Guidance](https://help.brev.io/settings-product/#brev-ai) is on for your organization and Brev has guidance for the meeting.

Anti-patterns include Vague ownership, Decision deferral, Status reporting dominant and Could have been async.

## When there is no score {#no-score}

- 'No Score Available' means the meeting wasn't recorded. Turn on the meeting agent to score future meetings.
- 'Legacy Score' means an older version scored it, without the breakdown.
- An upcoming one-off meeting has no health score, so the panel reads 'No Metrics Yet'.
