Recommended for US Eastern (New York)
8:00–9:30am recipient-local
The classic open-rate peak — people clear their inbox at the start of the day.
1:00–2:00pm recipient-local
A reliable secondary peak right after lunch.
Best days: Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

Cadence: Send 4 touches over ~14 days: day 1, day 4, day 8, day 13. Vary the angle each time.

Avoid Monday before 10am and anything after lunch on Friday.

Knowing the window is one thing — hitting it across every recipient's timezone is another. Autocloz schedules each send in the recipient's local time automatically.

Send-time calculator FAQ

Is the send-time calculator free?+

Yes — free, no signup, 100% client-side (nothing you type leaves your browser).

Are the times in my timezone or the recipient's?+

The recipient's. Open rates track the recipient's local clock, so schedule each send in their timezone — not yours.

What's the single best time to send a cold email?+

For a general business audience, Tuesday to Thursday around 8:00–9:30am recipient-local is the reliable peak, with a secondary window right after lunch. The exact window shifts by audience — execs read earlier, developers later.
