Now Re-launched — Entirely New Platform

Board governance,
finally simple.

BoardNotebook is a cloud-based board meeting platform built for non-profit organizations. One clear place for board members. One easy place for administrators. No training required.

Mini App Preview

Sound familiar?

Non-profit board members are volunteers. They shouldn't have to dig for the agenda the morning of a meeting.

📧

Buried in email threads

The latest agenda is somewhere in an email chain from three weeks ago — or maybe it was a different chain.

📁

Lost in shared folders

The bylaws are in Dropbox. Or was it Google Drive? And did anyone update them after the 2023 amendment?

📅

Constant calendar confusion

Is the next meeting the 2nd or 3rd Tuesday? Does the Zoom link change each month?

🔐

Governance docs scattered everywhere

Finding last year's IRS 990 or a board resolution from 2021 becomes a 30-minute archaeology project.
