Agenda templates
Free agenda templates with time slots
Pick the template closest to the session you're planning. Each one opens pre-filled with a realistic running order you can edit in the browser: set the start time once, give every item its minutes, and the clock time beside each row, the running total and the finish time all calculate themselves. Copy the result as plain text or print a clean one-page version. No sign-up, nothing to download.

Agenda template with time slots
The generic time-slotted agenda. Set a start time, give each item minutes, times fill themselves in.
Your agenda says 15 minutes. Your speaker takes 23.
Planned time on paper and what actually happens live are two different numbers, and every minute of the difference comes out of whatever was scheduled next. asktimer.com is the part that runs after the agenda is written.
A real countdown for every speaker
The minutes on this page are a plan. In the room, the plan needs enforcing. Load the same running order into asktimer.com and every speaker gets their own confidence monitor — a large countdown for their slot that turns green to amber to red as their time goes, readable at a glance from the podium. No card waved from the back of the room, and no speaker quietly wondering how long they have left.
Audience Q&A tied to the same session
The audience opens one link on their phones, submits questions and upvotes the ones they want answered, so the question the room actually cares about rises to the top instead of the loudest voice getting there first. The speaker can show that list on their own monitor when they're ready for it, and whoever is hosting marks each question covered as they work down it — so nothing gets asked twice and nothing gets lost.
One link each. Nothing to install.
A private link for the host running the show, one monitor link per speaker, and one public link for the audience. Everyone opens a browser tab — no app to install, no accounts for your speakers or your attendees, and no software to get working on a venue laptop ten minutes before doors.
Why time slots belong on an agenda
A list of topics is not a plan. Without a number of minutes against each item, the first thing discussed expands until it has taken the time that belonged to everything after it, and the items at the bottom of the page get the apologetic five minutes nobody prepared for. Durations force the trade-off in advance, while it can still be argued about calmly, instead of live in a room full of people watching the clock.
The reason most people give up on time-slotted agendas is arithmetic. Built in a spreadsheet or a document, the clock times are typed in as text, so inserting one item or trimming two minutes silently invalidates every time below it — and there is no error message to tell you. These templates derive each start time from the durations above it, so the times can never disagree with the plan. Change anything and the rest of the agenda re-times itself.
