Free scheduling tools ten of them, and not one asks who you are

Lay out a week. Work out how many appointments you could still take. Find the hour two cities actually share. Write the reminder you keep retyping. Every tool on this page runs in the tab you already have open, and whatever you make in one can be copied, printed or downloaded straight back out again.

  • No account, no email address
  • Nothing reaches a Picktime server
  • Everything copies or downloads
The terms

Nothing here asks who you are, and nothing here keeps anything

No account, and nowhere to make one

There is no sign-up step, no email field and no trial with a date on it. No tool stops halfway and asks for an address before it will show you the answer. That is deliberate rather than generous: a tool that works is worth linking to, and a tool behind a form is not.

Your work stays in your browser

Eight of the ten keep what you build in this browser, on this device. It survives closing the tab and it does not survive clearing your browsing data. The other two hold nothing at all between visits, because there is nothing in them worth keeping.

Whatever you make can leave

Every one of the ten has a copy or a download: a CSV, a page laid out for printing, a block of HTML, or plain text on your clipboard. Nothing is locked to this site and nothing carries our name into whatever you paste it in.

Time zones

Twenty conversions already worked out, and the tables underneath them

The converter handles any time into any city. These twenty are the ones people look up most, each with the answer in the first line and an hour-by-hour table beneath it, including the rows where a nine-to-five day at both ends actually overlaps, which is usually the real question. All twenty read correctly with JavaScript turned off.

Honestly

All ten stop at the same line

Every tool on this page is a drafting tool. It lays something out, or works something out, and then it hands the result back to you. What none of them does is take any part in what happens next.

Nobody can book one of these slots themselves. Nothing is sent to anyone when a time changes. None of them knows your calendar exists, so a block you draw here will not stop a meeting landing on top of it. And when two people want the same hour, the tool cannot decide between them. You can, and you will, by telephone, on a Saturday morning.

That line is where a booking system starts. Picktime is scheduling software with a free plan rather than a free trial, so crossing it costs the same as this page did.

Questions about the free tools

Are these really free, or does one of them stop halfway?

They are free and none of them stops. There is no trial that runs out, no limit on how often you use one, no watermark on what you print and no upgrade prompt in the middle of a task. They cost us almost nothing to run, because there is no server doing the work: the arithmetic happens in the tab you have open.

Do I have to make an account?

No, and there is nowhere to make one. None of the ten has a sign-up step, an email field or a “save your work” wall. You can open any of them, do the thing, take the result and close the tab without ever telling us who you are.

Where does my work get saved?

In your own browser, on the device you are using, and nowhere else. Nothing is uploaded to Picktime and there is no account holding it, so it survives closing the tab and it does not survive clearing your browsing data. What you build on a laptop will not appear on your phone. Two of the ten, the reminder templates and the booking link generator, keep nothing at all between visits, because there is nothing in them worth keeping. If you want a copy that lasts, every tool has a copy or a download.

Can I use these for my own business?

Yes. Print the rota and put it on the wall, send the timetable to your tutors, paste the reminder wording into whatever you send messages with. Nothing you make here is stamped with our name and nothing is licensed back to us.

Do they work on a phone?

All ten work on a phone. The three that draw a week (the schedule maker, the class timetable maker and the employee schedule maker) scroll sideways rather than shrinking, because seven columns at a readable size will not fit across a phone screen. The other seven fit as they are.

What is the catch?

That we would like you to remember where the tool came from. These pages earn their place by being genuinely useful with nothing asked in return, and a small number of the people who use one eventually want the bookings to arrive by themselves rather than be typed in. That is the whole mechanism, and it only works if the tool is not crippled, so it is not.

When drawing the week stops being enough

Put up a booking page, let people take the empty slots themselves, and stop being the thing that stands between a customer and an appointment.
