Actions get assigned to owners during the meeting, and BoardPro chases them automatically until they're done. Minutes go out for signature with one click and come back signed – not as a Word document round-robin. Between-meeting decisions run as flying minutes: propose, vote, record, done. No reply-all email chains. Trusted by 30,000+ board members in 38 countries ## Run the whole meeting cycle from one workflow From the moment you start the agenda to the moment actions are closed, it's the same place. No more bouncing between Word for the [agenda](https://www.boardpro.com/features/meeting-agenda-builder), Outlook for distribution, Dropbox for supporting documents, a spreadsheet for actions, and DocuSign for signatures. Every step of the cycle flows into the next – and the meeting calendar tells you exactly where each meeting is in the process. ## Take leave without the board falling apart You shouldn't have to be the only person who knows how the board works. Every meeting, decision, action, signed minute and governance document [lives in one place](https://www.boardpro.com/features/governance-repository) – accessible to the next admin, the leave cover, or the successor when the seat changes. Take time off without the board falling apart. Move roles without leaving a vacuum. > With BoardPro, preparing and managing minutes and meeting papers has never been easier. It’s transformed our governance administration and audit process. **Dauniika Maclean** Board Secretary - Auckland Grammar School ## The full governance lifecycle, in one workflow From agenda to minutes to decisions, BoardPro covers the full meeting cycle and the governance lifecycle around it. No more stitching things together from Word, email and a shared drive that half the board can't access. One platform, every record, every meeting – accessible to your whole board, wherever they are.

No. BoardPro is designed for the admin to set up and run a trial without the rest of the board involved. You can build an agenda, attach papers, and produce a sample pack on your own – and bring directors in when you're ready to use it on a real meeting cycle. How long does setup take? Most admins are up and running in under an hour. Your existing governance documents can be uploaded into the Governance Repository, and your first meeting agenda can be built straight away. The 30-day free trial gives you a full meeting cycle to test it on a real meeting before committing. Do my directors need training to use it? Very little. Directors log in to read the pack, annotate it (on iPad or in-browser), and sign off the minutes when they're confirmed. Most boards report directors picking it up in their first meeting. As the admin, you do the configuration; they do the reading. Can I import what's already in Word, Dropbox or our shared drive? Yes. Past minutes, governance documents, policies, terms of reference – anything currently sitting in Word or on a shared drive can be uploaded into the Governance Repository so it's searchable alongside the new record BoardPro builds from your first meeting onward. What happens when I move roles or take leave? Everything stays in BoardPro. Your successor or leave cover logs in and has the full record – agendas, packs, minutes, decisions, actions, signed documents, governance papers – without needing to be briefed on where things live. The handover is the login. Is BoardPro secure? Yes. Documents stay inside BoardPro rather than being sent as email attachments – board members log in to access them. Permissions are configurable at the board, sub-committee and folder level, and signed minutes are protected from further editing once confirmed. What does it cost? BoardPro is priced per board, not per user – so you can add as many directors and committee members as you need without the cost going up. See the Pricing page for current plan details.
