Best Meeting Time Calculator

The least-bad hour, when there is no good one

Past four zones apart there is usually no hour that suits everyone. This ranks the compromises by who pays for them, so the choice is deliberate rather than accidental.

Questions people ask

The things that come up about best meeting time calculators, answered plainly.

What if no time works for everyone?

That is the normal case beyond about a nine-hour spread. The ranking shows which hours cost the fewest people their evening, and exactly who is being asked to take the early or late slot — which is the information a rotating schedule needs.

Should we rotate the awkward slot?

Nearly always, yes. The page shows the cost per participant so it is obvious whether one office is absorbing all of it, which is the usual outcome when the time is picked by whoever called the meeting.
