Overview

Cliqer Timer runs a show's countdowns, messages and audience questions from any browser, on every screen in the venue.

Cliqer Timer is a show timer that runs in the browser. You build a rundown of timers in a room, run it from the control room, and every screen you hand out (the presenter's confidence monitor, the stage manager's tablet, the moderator's laptop, the audience's phones) follows it live.

This section is about Cliqer Timer rooms on the web. The timer built into the Cliqer desktop app (with Limitimer and NDI out of the host) has its own pages: Timer in Cliqer v3 and Timer (advanced).

What is in a room

Rundown

Timers by duration or finish time, linked starts, scheduled starts, day breaks and a live forecast that warns about gaps and overlaps.

Messages

Send a message to the presenter, flash it, focus it, and turn on the On air sign.

Screens and links

One link per role: controller, operator, viewer, moderator, agenda and audience. Short links, QR codes and passwords.

Output designer

Lay out what each screen shows: timers, clock, messages, progress bars, logos, video and more.

Audience questions

The audience asks and votes from their phones; a moderator approves, queues and puts a question on stage.

API and webhooks

Drive the room over HTTP and get told when timers start, end and reach their wrap-up colours.

How the pieces fit

Every device in a room talks to one authority over a live connection. The authority holds the room and the clock; screens only show what it sends, so every screen agrees.

The authority is our cloud for a normal room. See Offline and reliability for what happens when a connection drops.

Try it without an account

Open the demo room at https://cliqer.io/timer/r/demo/control. It runs entirely in your browser with a sample show (Doors open, Welcome, Keynote, Panel, Coffee break and more), so you can press Start and try every button. Nothing you do there is saved to an account.
