Balanced discussion and caucus timing

Free Mediation Session Timer

Use a mediation session timer for opening statements, issue framing, party turns, private caucus, options, agreement drafting, and closing steps. Keep the process balanced and create an XTimer room when a mediator needs shared timing.

Built for this job

Mediators can give parties balanced time without losing closing steps.

Private caucus and agreement drafting can be timeboxed clearly.

XTimer rooms support shared mediation timers when visible timing helps the process.
