Visible work block timing

Free Work Timer

Use a work timer for focused tasks, admin blocks, planning, review, team sprints, and quiet coworking. Give a work session a visible finish line and hand it off to an XTimer room when multiple people need the same clock.

Built for this job

Work sessions have a clear beginning, middle, and end.

Teams can make quiet coworking blocks visible without a meeting tool.

XTimer rooms let one person control the work timer while others watch the display.

Frequently asked questions

What is a work timer?

A work timer is a countdown or segmented timer for focused tasks, admin work, planning, review, and shared work sessions.

Is a work timer different from a Pomodoro timer?

A Pomodoro timer repeats focus and break cycles. A work timer can be a single work block or a custom sequence for planning, work, review, and break time.

Can I share a work timer with my team?

Yes. Create an XTimer room when a team needs a shared work timer with a separate controller and viewer display.
