The free scheduling poll for parent-teacher conferences
Timespree is a free parent-teacher conference scheduler that replaces the spreadsheet. Every family marks when they are free on one shared link, so you can see availability at a glance and assign conference times that fit around parents' work.
No account required to respond. Your poll link is ready in under a minute.

Why scheduling this is hard
Collecting dozens of families' availability over email is slow and error-prone.
Parents' work schedules rarely match the default conference window.
Parents will not create an account just to give their availability.
How the poll works
Create your poll
Pick the dates and time range you want to offer. Your shareable link is ready in under a minute.
Share one link
Send it wherever your group already talks. Nobody needs an account to respond, on any device.
Read the heatmap
Every response shades the grid. The darkest slot is your time. Done.
Why Timespree fits
No account for parents
Families open one link and shade the times they are free. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.
See everyone's availability at once
Instead of a stack of reply emails, you get a single grid showing when each family is free.
Fits around work hours
Parents can mark early mornings or evenings, so you can offer conference slots that families can actually make.
Free for the whole class list
No participant cap, so a full roster of families fits on one poll at no cost.
A real example
A teacher needs to book 25 parent-teacher conferences over two evenings. She shares a Timespree poll covering both evenings; each family shades the 15-minute windows they can attend. The grid shows exactly when each family is free, so she assigns non-overlapping slots that fit around parents' work without a single back-and-forth email.
