The payoff

Less time on the pack. More time on the decisions.

Board admin is quietly enormous — assembling papers, chasing the latest version, writing up minutes, following up actions. BoardTable takes that off your desk so meetings are spent governing, not formatting.

A day → an hour

Board-pack prep

Once your board and templates are set up, assembling and publishing the pack takes minutes — not a lost Sunday.

One version

No more “which file?”

Every director opens the current pack on any device. Zero “FINAL_v7” email chains, zero confusion in the room.

Nothing slips

Actions & obligations

Every action is numbered, assigned, dated and chased automatically — and every decision is audit-logged.

Figures are typical of a board once set up, based on the admin we see boards carry today. We'll show you the real numbers for your board in a demo.

One place, every stage

The whole meeting lifecycle, handled

From the first draft agenda to the final signed-off minutes, everything lives in one secure place — so nothing lives in someone's inbox.

Before the meeting

Build & distribute the pack

  • Draft the agenda from a template
  • Assemble papers into one board pack
  • Publish once — directors read on any device

In the meeting

Run a focused session

  • Directors arrive prepared, not catching up
  • Decisions and resolutions recorded live
  • Confidential items shown only to those allowed

After the meeting

Minutes & follow-through

  • Draft minutes from the agenda
  • Circulate for review and sign-off
  • Actions tracked to completion, with reminders

AI that does the heavy lifting

The prep, drafted for you. You just review and send.

BoardTable reads the papers and does the first draft — the agenda, the summary, the minutes — so your time goes on judgement, not typing. You stay in control: nothing is saved or published until you approve it.

Build the agenda from your papers

Upload the source documents and BoardTable drafts a complete agenda from them. You review and adjust before anything is saved.

Risk & language scan

Checks the pack for risky wording, unsupported claims, admissions and undeclared interests — before it goes to directors.

Five-minute pack summary

A concise briefing of the whole board pack — what matters, what's being decided and what to probe — so directors arrive ready.

Prep questions, with citations

The questions a sharp director would ask, grouped by agenda item and quoted straight from the papers — no guesswork.

Actions tracked automatically

Decisions and follow-ups become numbered, assigned, dated actions — chased automatically so nothing is lost between meetings.

AI you can trust in the boardroom

Grounded in your own record

It works from your board's papers, minutes and registers — not the open internet. It won't invent a policy you don't have.

Shows its working

Prep questions and drafts point back to the paper they came from, so you can check the source before you rely on it.

Never trains on your data

Your board's information is never used to train AI models and never leaves your BoardTable account.

AI drafts; your board decides. Nothing is saved or published without a person's review — because fiduciary duty can't be handed to a machine.

The board pack problem

Good governance shouldn't mean fixing spreadsheet formatting

Most boards still run on scattered PDFs, version-confusion and last-minute scrambles. Your directors' time is too valuable for that.

The old way

board_pack_FINAL.pdf board_pack_FINAL_v2.pdf board_pack_FINAL_v7_actually-final.pdf
  • Board packs emailed as huge PDF attachments
  • "Which version is the latest?" every meeting
  • Actions lost in the minutes, never followed up
  • Resolutions, conflicts and risk tracked in spreadsheets
  • Compliance cobbled together each year
  • No record of who saw what, and when

With BoardTable

  • One secure portal for every meeting and document
  • Always the current board pack, on any device
  • Numbered actions tracked to completion, with reminders
  • Built-in registers for decisions, interests and risk
  • ACNC & ASIC reporting data ready when you need it
  • Complete audit trail of board activity

Minutes started for you

A first draft from the agenda — you review and approve

Board pack summaries

A 60-page paper distilled to a one-page brief — the decision, the recommendation and the key risk — so directors arrive across the detail, on a draft you can always read in full.

Ask BoardTable

"What did we resolve about the lease?" — ask in plain English and get the answer from your meeting history, registers and papers, with a link to the source.

Minutes, started for you

Turn the agenda and your notes into a structured first draft — decisions and actions captured — then edit and approve. You stay in control; it just removes the blank-page slog.
