Stop wasting time, focus on decisions
Manual minutes are slowing boards down. Govrn changes this: you start from a ready-to-review draft, not a blank page.
5+ hours of post-meeting work
Board secretaries spend entire evenings transcribing notes, formatting documents, and ensuring nothing was missed.
Inconsistent drafts and multiple versions
Manual note-taking leads to incomplete records, missed decisions, and endless back-and-forth revisions.
Risk of errors or missing key decisions
Critical resolutions and action items get lost in messy handwritten notes or scattered digital documents.
Stress to finalize minutes quickly for compliance
Governance requirements demand quick turnaround, but manual processes make this nearly impossible.
Govrn changes this: you start from a ready-to-review draft, not a blank page.
