About Stagetimer.io
What is Stagetimer.io?
Stagetimer.io is a browser-based, remote-controlled countdown timer designed for event producers, video creators, and presenters. It replaces manual timers and spreadsheets with a fullscreen confidence monitor that shows accurate countdowns, messages, and event rundowns—all controlled from a separate device.
Who is it for?
It is built for event organizers, production teams, educators, and live streamers who need precise timing during conferences, virtual events, webinars, or classroom sessions. It is not a scheduling tool for personal time management or a calendar app; it is purpose-built for staged, shared timing environments.
Key capabilities and use cases
Use Stagetimer to keep live events on track: send messages to talent on stage, automate timer sequences via API or Companion module, and share a timer link with your team. It works on-premise with Windows/Mac apps (including NDI output) or entirely in the cloud. Real-world use: Paul Swinton, Production Director at Vive Event Production, uses it to manage complex virtual events with remote presenters globally.
Key features
- Fullscreen Countdown Timer — Accurate countdown, count-up, or clock display on a confidence monitor, with wrap-up colors and chimes.
- Message & Signal System — Send resizable, color-coded messages to talent on stage, with flash alerts.
- Shared Rundown & Agenda — Replace Google Sheets with a live agenda page visible to the entire production team.
- Automation & Integrations — API access, Companion module, OBS Studio integration, and Stream Deck support for remote control.
- On-Premise Desktop Apps — Windows, Mac, and Linux apps with NDI output; works fully offline with all features unlocked via lifetime license.
- Audience Interaction — Collect audience questions, customize the submission page, and moderate live.
- Multi-Room & Multi-Timer — Up to 50 timers per room (Pro) or unlimited (Premium), with CSV import/export for rundown management.
