Daily standup meeting timer

A well-run daily standup lasts 15 minutes for a team of up to nine — about 90 seconds per person answering yesterday, today, blockers. Use the per-person preset to keep individuals crisp, or the whole-meeting preset to enforce the 15-minute cap.

Frequently asked questions

How long should a standup be?

A well-run daily standup lasts 15 minutes for a team of up to nine people — roughly 90 seconds per person answering yesterday / today / blockers.

What about per-speaker limits?

Use the 2 min preset for larger teams; anything over 2 minutes per person almost always means the discussion belongs in a follow-up.

Should someone facilitate the timer?

Yes. One person watches the timer and gently interrupts at 90 seconds; that discipline is what keeps standups from ballooning.
