How the Color-Coded Grid Works
The Timezone Meeting Planner uses a color-coded grid to show at a glance which hours work for everyone:
Working Hours
9 am – 6 pm local time. The ideal window for meetings.
Stretch Hours
7–9 am and 6–10 pm. Possible but not ideal.
Night / Off
Outside working hours or weekends. Avoid unless necessary.
No Standard Overlap
San Francisco and Mumbai have no overlapping standard working hours (9 am–6 pm). Consider these alternatives:
- • Early morning in San Francisco to catch end of day in Mumbai
- • Async-first - record updates, use Loom or Slack video
- • Rotate the call time so no team always bears the inconvenient hour
