When does Berlin actually work? See it in your own calendar.

Meridian isn’t another calendar. Add your city, then the places you meet, and it puts the hours that work for everyone into the calendar you already use: Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar.

Add it to your calendar

New York + Berlin, in your calendar

Every working day’s overlap for the next six months, plus clock changes and public holidays. It keeps itself up to date, and its blocks show you as free, so they never get in the way of a meeting.

One meeting, not every day?

The meeting planner finds the hour for these places, and your board sends people a link that adds the meeting to their calendar.

Questions

Will it fill up my calendar?

One block a working day, marked free, so anyone booking time with you still sees you as available. Most calendar apps let you hide it with one tick and show it again when you’re scheduling.

Why does Google Calendar show a web address as its name?

For the first minute, until it has fetched the calendar once. Then it takes the calendar’s own name, such as “Meridian | New York + Berlin”.

How often does it update?

Your calendar app fetches it again on its own: Apple Calendar and Outlook every few hours, Google Calendar about once a day. The times are worked out six months ahead, clock changes included, so nothing is missed in between.

What about clock changes?

Each day is worked out on that day’s clocks. In the weeks when one place has changed its clocks and the other hasn’t yet, the overlap moves, and the feed puts a note on the day it happens.

Which public holidays are in it?

US federal holidays and bank holidays in England and Wales. On those days the feed has a note instead of an overlap.

Can Meridian see my calendar?

No. Your calendar app fetches the feed from Meridian; nothing in your calendar is sent back.

How do I remove it?

Delete or unsubscribe from the calendar in your calendar app, as you would any other.
