A slot that works for everyone
Organising a meeting across countries quickly turns into juggling offsets, clock changes that do not land on the same dates and working days that only overlap for a few hours. The grid shows all 24 hours of the day side by side, time zone by time zone.
The colours show at once what is acceptable: green for working hours, amber at the start or end of the day, dark for the night. Columns where everyone is green are flagged as the best slots.
How to use it
- Add the participants' cities. The first one is the reference used to read the grid.
- Pick the meeting date: the offsets are recalculated, clock changes included.
- Look for the columns flagged as best slots, then click one to see each participant's exact local time.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. Conversions use the browser's time zone database for the date you choose. Countries that switch to summer time on different dates, or that do not switch at all, are handled correctly.
Green is working hours, 9am to 6pm local time. Amber covers the edges of the day, 7 to 9am and 6 to 10pm, which are acceptable occasionally. Everything else counts as night.
With widely separated time zones this happens often. Look for columns where only one or two participants are in amber, and rotate the time from one meeting to the next so the burden is shared.
There is no hard limit. The grid scrolls horizontally, but beyond seven or eight time zones the overlap in working hours is usually zero.
