ZeitFinder

Create a scheduling poll and collect availability

Ask about whole time windows instead of preparing individual meeting options. Your group marks available and preferred times. ZeitFinder shows overlaps and helps you plan a shared meeting or separate appointments.

Time windows instead of fixed meeting options

Choose days and time windows, such as Monday to Friday from 2 to 8 pm. Participants mark their actual availability within them, dragging with a mouse on a computer or swiping over time cells on a phone. Joining through the shared participant link requires no account.

Available and preferred times remain distinct. This shows both when someone is free and which windows suit them best. Use weekdays for recurring planning or specific dates for one-off events.

PROCESS

How it works

  1. Create

    Name your poll and define possible days and time windows.

  2. Share

    Share the participant link and keep the private admin link for managing the poll. Let participants enter available and preferred times.

  3. Analysis

    Compare overlaps, plan with the solver or use optional AI analysis.

Your planning options

Find a shared meeting or assign individual appointments

For a team meeting, look for overlapping availability of the required duration. For lessons or consultations, assign different people to separate appointments. The free ZeitFinder solver supports automatic individual timetable planning.

If you enable comments, participants can add requests in their own words. Optional AI analysis can consider these free-text notes together with your planning instructions.

Frequently asked questions

Are scheduling polls free?

Yes. Creating polls and planning directly with the solver are free. Optional AI analysis requires AI credits.

Do participants need an account?

No. They enter availability through the participant link. Use the private admin link to manage and analyse the poll.

How does ZeitFinder differ from voting on fixed meeting options?

Your group marks available periods within your time windows. You do not have to create a separate option for every possible start time.

Can a scheduling poll also produce a timetable?

Yes. You can plan individual appointments from availability, setting each person's duration and weekly or fortnightly frequency during timetable planning.

Create your own availability poll

Set the days and time ranges, then invite your group to enter their availability.
