    That’s fine, but I don’t know of any that meet the requirements

    What I see out there seems to fall into:

    • “party invitation/RSVP” (evite, paperlesspost)
    • “event ticketing” (eventbrite)
    • schedule coordination (when2meet, whenisgood, whencanwehang)
    • business calendar (Google Calendar, Outlook, etc.)

    Meetup is close, and discord’s events system is kinda-sorta okay. Those are the best I know of and they’re still not good.
