Recurring meeting hosts struggle to manage attendees and access settings
Hosts of recurring meetings find it tedious to decide which busy stakeholders need to attend, keep invitations current as people join or leave, and repeat access-setting changes for each meeting. Existing calendar and meeting workflows can require organizers to handle these tasks one meeting at a time. A separate event-app complaint points to a related access problem, but not necessarily one a meeting tool can solve.

I have a large number of people to invite (about 75) and as people come and go within the company, I have to keep adding and deleting people and then the whole team gets another invitation.
As the organizer, I can change that setting for a given meeting, as shown in the screenshots below, but I don't want to have to manually change that setting for each new meeting
