A timed agenda keeps meetings honest. This meeting agenda generator loads a proven structure for your meeting type — standup, retrospective, sprint planning, or a 1:1 — then fits it to the exact number of minutes you have, so every segment gets a fair share of the clock.
How it works
Each meeting template defines its items along with a relative weight that reflects how much time that segment usually deserves. When you enter a total duration, the tool computes each item’s share as weight / total_weight × duration, floors the results, then hands out the leftover minutes to the items with the largest fractional remainders. That largest-remainder method guarantees the per-item minutes sum exactly to your total with no drift, while a one-minute floor stops any item from disappearing in very short meetings. Running start offsets are accumulated as the list renders.
Tips and notes
- For a 15-minute standup, expect short, near-even blocks; for a 60-minute retro, the data-gathering and insight phases naturally get the most time.
- Treat the output as scaffolding: add an owner and a link to each item once you paste it into your invite.
- Keep a parking-lot item so tangents have a home and the rest of the agenda stays on time.
- Generating again with a different duration instantly rebalances every segment.
