How it works

Pick the date you are counting down to and get the exact number of days from today — no mental calendar gymnastics across month ends and leap years. The panel also gives the weekday the date lands on and the distance in weeks, which is usually the number planning actually runs on.

Point it at a past date and it counts the other way: how many days since the deadline, the launch, the anniversary.

The method

The count is target date minus today's date in whole calendar days, using your local calendar date for today. A date later today still counts as its calendar distance; time of day never enters the arithmetic.

Check important dates twice. Every result here is worked out from the values you enter and the calendar, clock and counting conventions described on the page. Date and time answers can depend on time zones and daylight-saving rules, and counting tools follow the definitions printed with them. For deadlines, filings, payroll or anything with money attached, confirm the figure against an authoritative source.

Frequently asked questions

Does today count as day zero or day one?

Day zero. If the target is tomorrow, the answer is 1 day — the number of midnights you will sleep through before it.

Why does the weekday help?

Because planning runs on weekdays: 48 days sounds abstract, but knowing the date is a Friday tells you it sits at the end of a working week.

Can I count days since a date instead?

Yes — choose any past date and the calculator reports the days since it, marked as already passed.
