A free international meeting planner for global teams

Coordinating a call between New York, London, and Tokyo usually means a long thread of “what's that in my time?” messages. GlobalMeetingTime, a meeting planner for teams worldwide, removes the conversion. You pick a few candidate times in your own time zone, and every participant sees them translated to theirs, including daylight saving changes.

Once people respond, the results page shows a tally for each option, highlights the best match, and lays out a full-day comparison of local hours for everyone, so you can spot the window where nobody is asleep. When you decide, export the time to your calendar as an .ics file or with Google Calendar.

Who it's for

  • Remote and distributed teams setting up a recurring sync
  • Freelancers and clients in different countries
  • Communities, clubs, and study groups spread across regions
  • Anyone tired of converting time zones by hand

Daylight saving time and meeting time differences

The US and Europe switch clocks on different dates. The US moves to summer time on the second Sunday of March and back on the first Sunday of November. Europe moves on the last Sunday of March and the last Sunday of October. For a week or two each spring and autumn, the gap between New York and London is 4 hours instead of the usual 5, and the same shift applies to Chicago, Los Angeles, Paris, Berlin, and other US and European cities.

Cities without daylight saving time, such as Tokyo, Singapore, and Mumbai, shift against the US and Europe twice a year, and Sydney changes in October and April, opposite to the northern hemisphere. A recurring meeting can land an hour early or late after a change, so check the time difference on the date of the call. GlobalMeetingTime converts every candidate time for the date you pick, so these changes are already included.

How do I schedule an international meeting across time zones?

Create an event, pick a few candidate times in your own time zone, and share the link. Everyone sees the options converted to their own time zone and marks what works, so you can schedule the international meeting without converting times by hand.

How do I find the best time for everyone?
