# Group invites ### Overview Group invites allow multiple invitees to sign up for the same time slot, making them ideal for events where one host meets with many attendees at once. Unlike one-on-one invites, a single time slot can be booked by many people simultaneously. ### How It Works When you create a group invite, multiple invitees can book the same time slot until the slot fills up. After booking, invitees receive a confirmation with a button or link to add the event to their own calendar. Because invitees add the event to their calendars themselves rather than receiving an automatic calendar invitation, attendee email addresses stay hidden from each other. This protects invitee privacy and is especially useful for group classes, webinars, and other settings where you don't want participants to see one another's contact details. ### Key Benefits * **Multiple sign-ups per slot:** One time slot can accommodate many invitees, so you don't need to create separate events for each person. * **Invitee privacy:** Invitees are hidden from each other since each person adds the event to their own calendar individually. * **No team required:** Group invites can be set up on any zcal account without needing to create a team. ### Common Use Cases * **Group Classes:** Run fitness, yoga, language, or other recurring classes where multiple students book the same session. * **Webinars:** Host online presentations or talks open to many attendees at once. * **Workshops and Training Sessions:** Offer group training where participants register for the same time slot. * **Office Hours:** Open up shared time blocks where multiple people can drop in together. * **Group Coaching:** Lead coaching sessions for cohorts of clients sharing the same meeting time. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
