Recurring Meetings
Recurring meetings in Hyper are designed to accumulate context instead of resetting every week. The meeting series becomes the container for agenda templates, rolling notes, prep, open action items, and the record of previous decisions.
Use a recurring series when you want each new session to inherit the structure and unresolved work from the last one.

Recurring meetings keep series rules, invitees, and agenda context together so updates can be applied intentionally.
When to use this
- Weekly standups, 1:1s, reviews, customer syncs, and any meeting that repeats on a predictable cadence.
- Teams that want open items to carry forward automatically instead of being manually recopied into the next doc.
- Meeting owners who want one durable URL and history for the entire series.
Before you start
- Choose the correct timezone before saving the first series instance.
- Decide whether invitees and access rules should stay fixed or change from occurrence to occurrence.
- Attach the template and prep sources you want carried through the series.
Settings and options
Series management
- Update the series when you want future meetings to inherit a change.
- Edit a single occurrence when you need a one-off exception for time, access, or participants.
- Use stable naming so prep, search, and recap surfaces keep the series coherent.

Action items created in one session stay visible in the next. Track completion across the series without switching tools.

Questions that come up often
How does Hyper detect recurring meetings?
Hyper reads your calendar and automatically groups meetings that share the same title, participants, and recurrence pattern into a series.
Can I view all past sessions in a series?
Yes. Every recurring meeting has a series view where you can browse summaries, decisions, and action items from every past session.
What if I change the meeting time or participants?
Hyper adapts. Changes to time, participants, or title are handled gracefully. The series history stays intact.

Limitations and rollout notes
- Calendar providers can differ in how quickly they reflect updates to future occurrences.
- Large changes to series participants or permissions may need a quick follow-up review before the next session.
Troubleshooting
A schedule change did not show up for everyone
- Confirm whether the edit applied to one occurrence or the whole series.
- Recheck the connected calendar event after the provider finishes syncing changes.
- Open the Hyper series page to verify the new rule before asking attendees to rely on the calendar copy.
