What it is

Diligent Boards centralizes agendas, board books, annotations, messages, votes, questionnaires, minutes, and action tracking. GovernAI features can draft board books, scan materials for risk, summarize pre-reads, prepare talking points, and draft minutes.

Ways to use it

Ideas from real executive operations work. Take the ones that fit.

  • Build an agenda and assemble source documents into a controlled board book.
  • Distribute updated materials to directors without emailing sensitive attachments.
  • Use AI summaries and cited preparation insights to review dense pre-reads.
  • Run votes, approvals, questionnaires, and secure director communications.
  • Draft minutes, capture decisions, and track actions after the meeting.

Our take

Choose Diligent Boards when highly sensitive board work needs a purpose-built portal, controlled distribution, offline access, and a durable meeting record. It is excessive for an informal advisory group that can safely work from ordinary shared files.
