Meeting Planner

Find the working-hours overlap across up to 8 cities and add it to your calendar.

The meeting planner at setalarmclock.net draws each city’s day as a 24-hour strip and highlights the hours where everyone is working — so finding a slot that suits New York, London, and Berlin is something you can see, not calculate.

It even auto-suggests the best time in the next seven days, and once you’ve found a slot you can add it straight to Google Calendar, Outlook, or download an .ics file.

What the full meeting planner does

  • Per-city 24-hour strip: green working hours, yellow ±1h fringe, highlighted overlap columns
  • Best-time auto-suggest — the earliest slot in the next 7 days where all cities overlap
  • Editable working hours per city; up to 8 cities via typeahead search
  • 5 named team presets (US↔EU, Global standup, Americas↔EU↔Asia, EU, APAC)
  • Meeting duration selector (15–240 min) and 12h/24h toggle
  • Add to Calendar: Google, Outlook, and .ics download; shareable link

This is the hardest tool to fake with mental math, and the full page is where it shines — editable hours, calendar export, presets, and a shareable plan. The embed previews the overlap; the tool page plans the meeting.

The overlap logic is genuinely helpful: working hours are shaded green, a one-hour buffer on each side is shaded yellow, and the columns where everyone is simultaneously working are highlighted — so a workable slot is obvious at a glance.

Common use cases

  • Scheduling across a distributed team
  • Coordinating a synchronized launch
  • Client calls spanning continents
  • Remote-work handbooks and onboarding
  • Planning interviews across time zones

Frequently asked questions

How does it pick the best meeting time?

It scans the next 7 days at 15-minute granularity for the earliest slot where every city is within its working hours, falling back to a fringe overlap if no strict one exists.

Can I set each city’s working hours?

Yes. Working hours are editable per city, with a one-hour “fringe” on each side shown in yellow.

Can I add the meeting to my calendar?

Yes. The suggested time exports to Google Calendar, Outlook, or an .ics download.
