Our algorithm considers several factors: whether the time falls within standard working hours (9AM-5PM by default), how close it is to the edges of the workday, and whether it would require any participants to meet very early or late. We prioritize times where most participants are in their core working hours, with visual indicators showing how optimal each potential time is.

The free version allows comparison of up to 8 time zones simultaneously, which covers most team needs. Our premium plans allow unlimited time zones, which is particularly useful for large international conferences or organizations with many global offices.

Most converters simply show you what time it is elsewhere. Our tool analyzes working hours across all locations to identify optimal meeting windows. The visual timeline makes it easy to see overlaps at a glance, and our smart suggestions save you from manually checking multiple time slots. We also account for more edge cases like daylight saving transitions in both hemispheres.
