Can a chief of staff use Meetingpad to manage the executive's calendar?

Yes. Meetingpad is a single-user app installed on the person doing the scheduling. Chiefs of staff who manage their executive's calendars install Meetingpad, connect each of the executive's Google accounts as an identity, and get one booking link per account to hand out to counterparts.

Does the executive need their own Meetingpad account?

No. The chief of staff installs Meetingpad, connects the executive's Google Workspaces, and manages everything from their own Mac. The executive doesn't need to touch it.

How does Meetingpad compare to Calendly for chief-of-staff use cases?

Calendly's model assumes one calendar owner. If your executive has 3 different Google accounts (personal, company, a board seat), Calendly requires either Teams plan seats or separate Calendly accounts. Meetingpad handles multiple identities natively at $8/mo unlimited.

FOR CHIEFS OF STAFF

Schedule across your executive's Google accounts, from one Mac app.

Your executive has a personal Google account, a company Google Workspace, a board-seat account, and probably one more you'd rather not think about. You handle scheduling across all of them. Meetingpad puts each account in a single menubar app with per-account booking links, unified availability, and no meeting-title leaks between contexts.

Your scheduling stack, right now

You have Chrome open with 3 different Google Calendar tabs. A private spreadsheet where you cross-reference their commitments manually. A Calendly-per-identity setup that costs $64/month and still can't answer "when is he actually free next Thursday" without you doing the merging yourself.

When his board schedules a call on the board Google account, his startup COO tries to book the same slot via the company Calendly link because that calendar doesn't know about the board one. You broker the apology.

How Meetingpad changes it

You install Meetingpad on your Mac.
You connect each of his Google accounts as an identity — personal, company, board.
You get three booking links, one per account. Hand each to the counterparts who should book on that identity.
Availability rolls up server-side: any account busy at 3pm Thursday makes all three links show 3pm Thursday as taken.
Bookings on any link create the event on that identity's Google Calendar and send the invite from that identity's Gmail. All other calendars get a titleless Busy placeholder automatically.
No cross-sharing, no calendar hacking, no manual merging.

Meeting title privacy

The board account's meetings — often the most confidential — never leak into the company account or the personal account. The Busy placeholders that prevent double-booking have no title, no notes, no attendees. Just an unavailable time slot.

Group polls for the multi-attendee ask

When you need to schedule a call with three exec team members plus your executive, Meetingpad's group polls tally votes and close on the winning slot with one click. Beats the Doodle-then-copy-to-calendar dance.

What Meetingpad Pro gives you

Unlimited identities — every Google account he's on can be a first-class identity.
Unified availability — one place to see the real "when's he free" answer.
Cross-calendar Busy placeholders — titleless, private, automatic.
Group polls — for multi-exec meetings.
AI-drafted communications — nudges, announcements, follow-ups from Claude (BYO key).
Work Mirror (optional) — a single unified calendar view you can look at on your Mac and iPhone.

Pricing

Meetingpad Pro is $8/month flat, unlimited identities. Calendly Teams at 4 identities is $64/month; Cal.com Teams is $48/month.
