Stage timer for event teams
Keep every speaker on time.
A big, clear countdown for your stage screen. Set the time, press start, and the screen turns red when time is almost up.


Made for real event days
Conferences, award nights, product launches and panels all run on tight schedules. Big Countdown gives speakers a calm, clear signal of how much time is left — no hand signals from the side of the stage.
