The problem

Timing should guide the room, not slow it down.

Live events need clear timing for the person on stage and fast, reliable control for the technician running the show. SpeechTime keeps those two needs connected.

Control → Stage

Detail for the operator. Clarity for the stage.

Control prepares and operates the timer. Stage reduces the output to the signal the speaker or audience needs to see.

ControlPrepare, run, pause, stop and adjust timing from one operational view.

Stage / OvertimeThe output changes state and communicates that time is over.

Settings

Set the behaviour. Keep operation simple.

Timing behaviour, warning thresholds, Stage presentation, clocks, messages and colours can be adapted to the event without crowding the live Control view.

Integration

Built to join the wider event workflow.

SpeechTime includes functional OSC integration for interoperability with audiovisual and event-control workflows. OSC extends the product; the core timer does not depend on it.

Current / Next

Operational now. Evolving next.

Current

Web-based and tested in real events.

SpeechTime has reached an operational state. It is available for real-event testing on request, and feedback from real use is welcome.

Next

A Windows evolution with broader outputs.

The approved direction includes a Windows application, additional functionality and broader output possibilities. NDI is a future integration and output direction, not a current capability.
