Congrats on the Launch Liz and Lukas! 🚀🚀
Have you marketed this to Streamers - Twitch etc? If it's browser based it would be easy to integrate into OBS/Streamlabs. They often need countdown times pre-stream.

@maxwellcdavis Thanks for the support Maxwell! Yes, we plan on start targeting streamers now. It's definitely the next customer segment for us. We first focused on event and AV production, since they convert into paid users. Streamers on the other hand are fine with the free version. Let's see what other industries and use cases we can expand into. :)
@josecar It's not exactly designed for that. But I'm about to add the option to show the countdown like so "1d 2h 24m 41s" ... maybe that helps
@josecar Released the update 3 days ago 👉 https://stagetimer.io/blog/produ...
Congrats Lukas, I loved the product 🎉
I couldn't find the embed option if it's available. (I feel like you have :) ) IF you have this feature you might want to shine it up more :)
@yucelfaruksahan Aha! We do not have an embed option yet. But we may have an embed option in two weeks. I'm putting it on my list :)
Hi Hunters,
This is Lukas and Liz, makers of Stagetimer, a countdown timer you can control from anywhere.
💡The initial idea
A friend of mine has a studio and he uses an old laptop with a little tool written in Flash as a timer, which he starts manually before running back to the camera. "Surely there is a modern web-based app out there he can use instead", I thought. Well, there wasn't. There were some Mac and Windows apps, but nothing like I thought there would be.
So I built it myself.
I wanted to make it possible to put a tablet with wifi somewhere in front of the speaker and remote control it from a laptop or phone by opening a link with a unique key. And many iterations later here is Stagetimer 2.0.
🤩 Yes, it’s FREE
Stagetimer is free to use and allows you to keep a meeting, event, Livestream, and more on time. It can be used across time zones, on different devices and you can even send messages to presenters.
⚡️Pro features
If you have a bigger event or meeting, you can unlock all Pro features with a 10-day Event license or a Pro subscription. It includes unlimited rooms, timers, messages, and connected devices, customization, API to use with StreamDeck Companion, and much more.

@hirvesh_munogee Thank you Hirvesh! Liz turned out to be a great marketer.
@_lhermann i've been following Lukas and Liz's journey for a while now. Super impressed.
Can totally see how this solves a very tangible need for events, livestreams, or just running meetings in general.
Congrats on the launch!
@_lhermann @threehourcoffee your support means a lot to us Marie! You have been an inspiration and a reference on how to build a business. Thanks for all the support and for everything we learn from you!
@_lhermann @alexey_hs Thanks Alex! The launch looks even better with such an awesome video from Hound Studio! Really appreciate the work you and your team put on it.
What I LOVE about this is the simplicity of the concept itself. A timer, you can control from other devices? So simple in principle, but the execution is what makes this useful. Nice work team!
@tannerc Thanks Tanner! I'm happy we were able to present a simple solution to this problem. Hope it will be useful to you. :)
I've been following you two for a while now. Super awesome to see stagetimer here on producthunt. Congrats! 🚀
@marvinoffers Thanks for the support and for cheering for us Marvin! I really appreciate it!
@jondotjames Thanks John, I'm glad you like it. We haven't found anything else fo this specific use case, but there are quite a few other tools that do some part of what we offer.
You've really built the best product to solve this problem, congrats on the launch 🎉 And you two make a wonderful team! 👏👏
@kilianpoulintw Thanks Kilian! Your support means a lot! You have been an inspiration to us.
@kilianpoulintw @liz_hermann I agree with Liz, you are a great inspiration 👏
I used to run large tech conferences and to have a timer for the speakers I had to pay ridiculous prices for the AV companies to haul over 10-year-old hardware...
I wish stagetimer had existed back then!
Awesome product and congrats on the launch!
@rbouschery Thanks Robbie! I'm happy we can offer an alternative now. Maybe you will get to use Stagetimer in future projects. 😉
@rbouschery That's pretty much the use case. We still have one big milestone, a downloadable version, to make Stagetimer really conference event venue proof 😅
following the journey of both of you is super inspiring, you pour so much love into it which results in an outstanding product!
all the best for the launch, I see you're already crushing it 🔥😄
@dominiksumer Thanks for such a kind and supportive message Dominik!
Now let's see if Stagetimer will hold its position :D
@oluadedeji Thanks for the feedback and all the support Olu! Happy to know Stagetimer is useful to you as well :)
Been following Lukas and Liz's journey for some time now. Really hyped for what stage time has become ! :D
@smanna Thanks for the support and for cheering for us Suvojit! Really appreciate it!
Hi Lukas & Liz,
After watching the Stagetimer 2.0 walkthrough video on Youtube, I was literally happy, excited, and astonished about the redesigned UI-UX granularity features of this very professional tool perfectly built for Run Of Show / Rundown producers tools like in tv-broadcast and event industries.
Huge congrats to you guys, as you are continually improving this tool with a transparent roadmap on all points.
This is exactly what virtual producers from small companies need to elevate their production skills.
@rudy_arconte Thanks for such a nice feedback Rudy! We are truly happy to be able to provide this service for producers and teams working on events, broadcasting and video production in general.
Feel free to let us know if there is anything we can improve.
Great product and simple design. Congrats on your founder journey, Lukas and Liz. Love seeing this kind of new tech!
Congrats guys 👏 this product solves a lot of frictions! Having hosted a podcast in the past, it would have been very useful to me if I had known it at that time 🙈
@saravissante thanks Sara! Maybe you will use it in the future for new projects. 😉
Lukas and Liz,
You guys have created a great product and your marketing has been impressive!
Best of luck with the launch
@_alex_adamov Thanks Alex! The learning curve has been steep, but it has been a lot fun building and growing Stagetimer. :)
The timer was great. While not the primary purpose, I've used StageTimer.io for workouts and it was very clear to setup and see. Great product.
Good luck with the launch!
@nick_campbell2 How nice to know that you have used Stagetimer already Nick! And thanks for the support!

@hakan_fragapane Thanks Hakan! Feel free to reach out if you need anything or have any questions while testing Stagetimer. ;)
Congratulations on your launch. Can I use the timer in different time zones?
@viktoria_pupazina Thanks Viktoria! And yes, Stagetimer adjusts to the local time of the controller and/or viewer, so it's perfect for remote teams or virtual events.
Give it a try and let me know if you have any questions. ;)
