Tell the people in the first meeting at the start that you’ll need to leave a few minutes early, to set the expectation and make sure any important stuff is done early. Then when it hits your transition window, politely tell them you have to run and leave.

And have some subset of people in each mtg do that every mtg every single day?

I personally prefer the 5 minute gap, it's a simple and clean solution.
