Sprint velocity is the average number of story points (or units of work) a team completes per sprint. It's the most reliable metric for forecasting how much work your team can take on in future sprints.
Add up the story points completed in each sprint, then divide by the number of sprints. For example, if your team completed 21, 18, and 24 points over 3 sprints, your average velocity is (21 + 18 + 24) / 3 = 21 points per sprint.
At least 3 sprints gives you a baseline. 5 or more sprints provides a much more reliable average. This calculator works with as few as 2 sprints but flags when data is limited.
There's no universal "good" number — velocity is team-specific. What matters is consistency and trend. A team that reliably delivers 15 points per sprint is more predictable than one that swings between 10 and 30.
