Presentation timing for Windows

Timerinator

/ty-mur-nay-ter/ noun.

A Windows timing apparatus for presenters who understand that traveling back in time is never a good strategy for delivering a presentation on time.

Features

Present like a pro, even if you aren't one.

Standalone timers

Build timing plans for demos, rehearsals, and even when you line up your Labubus and give them a lecture. Timerinator handles sections, shows how much time you have left, and manual progress without needing PowerPoint to supervise.

PowerPoint timers

Import deck structure and embed timer details in PowerPoint notes so the plan travels with the deck like a tiny responsible adult. Sections, demos, speakers, callouts, and slide limits can live where presenters already work.

The Timernator is designed to nestle in PowerPoint's speaker's notes area. Transparent and always on top. Or not. You do you!

Demos, breaks, and live context

Handle moving parts, delayed starts, planned pauses, overtime, break status, speaker info, and slide-aware overlays. The timer shows the uncomfortable truths in real time, because denial is not a scheduling strategy.

Pace analysis

See whether the remaining slides still fits the remaining time before the room finds out with you. Timerinator compares planned pace, slides left, time left, and session history so you can hold pace, slow down, or gently stop admiring slide 12. It even analyzes slide similarity to detect build-up slides vs brand new content. So fancy!

Shared timers and presenter signals

Designed for anyone who's ever had to co-present with me. Co-presenters can keep track of the presentation without surrendering the presenting computer. Co-presenters can ask to pause, take a break, speed up, slow down, or raise a hand like civilized chaos managers.

They can even take control of the slides when it's their time to present. Maybe we'll add the orchestral play-off music they use to wrap up speeches at the Oscars one of these days.

Install it, time the thing, glare gently at the agenda.

Timerinator is free. If you want to share your timers with co-presenters, it'll cost you, mostly because real-time coordination needs a server, and servers have the nerve to cost money.

We also have other tools available.
