Time difference between São Paulo and Boston

Boston is 1 hour behind São Paulo. Put the other way round: São Paulo is 1 hour ahead of Boston.

São Paulo is UTC-3 in summer and UTC-3 in winter; Boston is UTC-4 and UTC-5.

When you can both be at your desks

Working 09:00 to 17:00 in both cities leaves 7 hours in common: 10:00 to 17:00 in São Paulo, which is 09:00 to 16:00 in Boston. Those are the hours to aim a call at.

Daylight saving

Boston changes its clocks for summer and São Paulo does not, so there is no single answer: the gap is 1 hour for the northern summer and 2 hours for the rest of the year.

Plan a meeting across more than two cities

This page covers one pair. TimeGap takes a list: add every city you care about, drag one marker, and every row reads the same instant on its own clock. It marks the hours you would actually take a call, finds the window where the most people are reachable, flags public holidays, and puts the time you pick straight into Outlook or Google Calendar.
