Time Zone Meeting Planner

How recommendations are ranked

Every candidate is one real UTC instant. The planner first minimizes how many locations fall outside configured working hours. Ties minimize the largest individual inconvenience, then total inconvenience, then use UTC order for a stable result.

This is a scheduling aid, not an objective fairness score. Team context and personal constraints still matter.

Organizer date and daylight saving time

The selected date belongs to the organizer time zone. The planner enumerates every real half-hour until the next local day, so spring-forward days can have fewer slots and fall-back days can show repeated clock times with different offsets.

The next-eight-weeks check keeps the selected UTC instant and reports local clock or offset changes. Future law changes may not yet exist in the visitor’s browser data.

Working hours and rotation

Each location starts with Monday–Friday, 09:00–17:00 and can be edited independently. Version one supports one non-overnight interval per enabled weekday. Rotation compares two different times using cumulative burden.

Privacy and limitations

The planner does not access calendars, availability, accounts, email, location services, or IP geolocation. It does not create meetings or polls. Inputs stay in browser memory or in a share-link fragment you choose to copy.

Time conversion uses the current browser or operating system’s IANA data. The city index was reviewed 2026-08-19; it is for discovery, not offset rules.
