Tired of inaccurate estimations that become commitments? Learn how we transitioned from spending endless hours providing (faulty) estimates to getting to pro... Estimation is a waste of time | Maria Chec | LeadDev New York 2025

These insights come from an excellent talk by Maria Chec that I highly recommend you watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfJ...

I'm curious what are your thoughts.

Now the outcome:
1️⃣ ~60% less time spent estimating
2️⃣ More predictable delivery
3️⃣ Healthier stakeholder conversations (risk is explicit, not hidden)

Key insight:
Work analysis != estimation.
Understanding the work is useful, but turning guesses into deadlines is not.

3️⃣ forecast ranges with confidence levels (50%, 85%, 95%)
4️⃣ different precision for roadmap vs quarter vs sprint

Instead of trying to "estimate better" they switched from deterministic thinking ("it will be done on date X") to probabilistic forecasting:
1️⃣ use historical throughput
2️⃣ run Monte Carlo simulations

In their data, time in review was ~2x coding time and nobody estimated it.

Why?
Because we estimate hands-on coding and ignore:
1️⃣ review time
2️⃣ waiting on other teams
3️⃣ blocked work
4️⃣ uncovered tech debt in the system

They plotted story point estimates x actual cycle time across teams.
Result: no correlation. Ones took longer than eights. Threes took 30 days. Didn’t matter.

You plan the ideal ETA.
Then reality happens: traffic, breakdowns, wrong route, ...

I just watched a great talk by Maria Chec that showed this with real engineering data.

Estimation is a waste of time.

They fail for the same reason road trips fail. 🧵 👇
