What is it?

The Meeting Timer is a real-time shared countdown tied to a structured agenda. The host sets up the topics and time budgets before the call, then everyone joins with a room code. From that point, the whole room sees the same timer - the current topic, time remaining, and what is coming next.

There is no need for a designated timekeeper watching their phone. The shared visibility creates natural accountability without anyone having to police the conversation.

Why teams use it

🎯

Shared accountability

When everyone sees the same countdown, overruns become visible to the whole room - not just the facilitator. That visibility changes behavior.

🧘

Facilitator stays focused

No more splitting attention between the discussion and watching the clock. The timer handles timekeeping so you can focus on the conversation.

📋

Agenda-first culture

Building the agenda before the meeting forces clarity on what actually needs to happen. Vague agenda items get challenged before the call starts.

🔄

Works for any meeting

Retrospectives, sprint planning, weekly syncs, demos - any meeting with a defined agenda benefits from a shared timer.

When to use it

Sprint retrospectives

A typical retrospective has distinct phases - icebreaker, writing, voting, discussion, action items. Without a timer, discussion almost always runs over and action items get rushed at the end.

Sprint planning

Planning meetings have a natural tendency to expand. A shared timer with a budget per topic keeps the team from spending 45 minutes on a story that should have taken 5.

Weekly team syncs

Recurring meetings with standing agenda items are exactly where timers help most. A 30-minute sync with 5 agenda items gets much harder to derail when everyone can see the clock.

Workshops and training sessions

Multi-section sessions benefit from visible transitions. Participants know when a section is ending and can mentally prepare to shift gears.

How it works

1

Host builds the agenda before the meeting: topic names and time budgets in minutes.

2

Host creates a room with an optional password and shares the code with participants.

3

Everyone joins - no account needed. They see the full agenda and remaining time.

4

Host starts the timer when the meeting begins. The current topic and countdown are visible to all.

5

When a topic wraps up, the host advances to the next item.

6

Overruns are visible to everyone, making it easy to cut a discussion short or decide together to extend.

Run meetings that end on time

Set your agenda, share the code, and let the timer keep everyone honest. No account, no setup.
