A deadline countdown that keeps you on pace
Deadlines are easier to hit when you can see them coming. A live countdown turns an abstract due date into a number that shrinks every day, helping you plan backwards, prioritise and avoid the last-minute scramble — whether it is a coursework hand-in, a grant application, a tax filing or a launch date.
Because every countdown has its own link, you can share the same timer with a whole team so everyone is working to the exact same clock. Pin it to your page, show it on a screen, or embed it in a project dashboard — and update the date in seconds if the deadline moves.

FAQ
How do I make a deadline countdown?
Enter what the deadline is for and its date and time above, then tap Create. You get a shareable page with a live countdown in about 30 seconds — no account needed.
Can I share the deadline countdown with my team?
Yes. You get a clean link like countdownit.com/your-deadline that anyone can open to see the exact time remaining. Drop it in Slack, an email or a project doc.
Does the countdown show hours and minutes, not just days?
Yes — every deadline countdown ticks down in days, hours, minutes and seconds in real time, so the pressure is clear as the date gets close.
Can I change the deadline after creating it?
Yes. Your browser remembers your page, and your password lets you edit the date, title and theme any time from any device.
Is the deadline countdown free?
Completely free, with no signup or email. You pick a link and a password (only used to edit it later) and it goes live instantly.
