Huddle

Stop running over in meetings.

Huddle (formerly Cue) is the meeting timer for people who run over. Quiet while you're on track: a countdown in the menu bar or as a floating overlay, green → orange → red. Impossible to ignore when you're not: a full-screen signal the moment you go into overtime, plus a Focus Mode that fills the screen with the countdown. Pull out a timer by dragging down from the menu bar icon, track meetings straight from your calendar in one click (iCloud, Google, Outlook, Exchange), timebox each meeting with an agenda — typed yourself, read from the notes, or saved as a template. Stays invisible to others during screen sharing. No cloud, no account, 37 languages.
