When teams span time zones, someone takes the early or late call. Parallel rotates who adjusts so the inconvenience is shared over time.

Hey everyone 👋
One thing I kept noticing in global teams is that recurring meetings are rarely actually “fair.”
There’s usually a “least bad” time — and then it just… stays that way.
Which means the same people end up joining late at night or early morning every single week.
It’s not that teams don’t care — it’s just that existing tools don’t really support anything else. They help you find a time once, but not manage fairness over time.
That’s what led me to build Parallel.
Instead of optimizing for a single perfect slot, Parallel treats scheduling as something that happens over weeks — making the trade-offs visible and rotating inconvenient times so the burden is shared.
The goal isn’t perfect equality — it’s intentional fairness.
Curious how others handle this today:
do your teams ever rotate meeting times, or do you usually stick to one schedule?
