Built for live events

Run every speaker to time.

A dead-simple stage timer for conferences, panels, and shows. A big countdown on the confidence monitor, color cues as time runs out, and messages straight to the speaker — set up in seconds, impossible to break mid-show.

Exactly like the app's control window
Everything you need

Built for operators

Fast to set up, hard to break during a live show. No accounts, no cloud, no surprises.

🖥️

Second-screen output

A clean fullscreen countdown on the confidence monitor. Nothing shows on your laptop — the output only ever lives on the second display.

🎨

Color thresholds

Green while there's time, yellow as it tightens, red at the wire. Four fully customizable zones for text and background.

⏱️

Count down or up

Per-digit steppers, Set-to-Start and Set-to-Zero, and overrun straight into negative time for speakers who run long.

⏸️

Pause & resume

A dedicated pause control that picks right back up in the same direction. One button, no fumbling mid-show.

💬

Speaker messages

Type a note — "wrap up", "5 minutes", "we can't hear you" — set its size and colors, and push it straight to the screen.

🌐

LAN web viewing

Flip on sharing and open the live timer in any browser on the same network. No install needed on the other device.

⚡

Time warp

Speed the clock up to 3× to rehearse a whole run-of-show in a fraction of the time.

📌

Float & transparency

Keep the control window on top of everything, and fade the on-screen time to taste without touching the background.

💻

Windows & macOS

One app, both platforms. No login, no cloud, no autosave gotchas — it launches ready to go and stays out of your way during a live show.
