How GOVRN’s AI Features Solve Real Boardroom Pain Points
Modern governance is high-stakes, fast-moving, and often overwhelming. Board Secretaries juggle agendas and minutes under pressure. CEOs must filter critical updates from a flood of information. Directors, especially non-executives, walk into meetings needing instant context—but get PDFs. The result? Strategic blind spots, compliance risks, and wasted time.
GOVRN was built to change that.
🎯 Feature 1: AI Minute Builder – Cut Minute Drafting Time by 50%
Problem: Board Secretaries often spend 4–6 hours per meeting compiling, reviewing, and finalizing minutes. They chase clarity, cross-reference discussions, and struggle to ensure accuracy—especially across long or complex sessions.
Solution: GOVRN’s AI Minute Builder automates the heavy lifting. It:
- Records the meeting
- Automatically aligns transcripts with agenda items
- Suggests structured minutes in real time
- Flags inconsistencies or missing items
⏱️ Result: Minute drafting time slashed by 50%—from hours to minutes.
This isn’t just transcription. It’s smart, contextual documentation that helps secretaries work faster, reduce errors, and stay focused on governance—not admin.
Who Benefits:
- Board Secretaries: Fewer revisions. Instant structure. Trusted records.
- CEOs: Transparent tracking of decisions and follow-ups.
- Boards: More reliable documentation, faster.
🔒 Feature 2: AI Assist – Ask Questions Inside a Secure Governance Bubble
Problem: Directors and executives often need to query documents mid-meeting—“Did we approve this before?” “What was our CSRD stance?”—but navigating folders, PDFs, and email threads wastes time and derails focus.
Solution: GOVRN’s AI Assist answers questions directly from your board materials, within your secure environment.
Ask:
- “What did we decide last time on this?”
- “Which document mentions our ESG targets?”
- “Has this proposal been reviewed by legal?”
AI Assist finds the answer instantly, referencing your actual board documents, past minutes, or uploaded policies—without ever leaving the secure governance platform.
🔐 Result: No distractions. No data leaks. Just answers—fast, safe, and in context.
Who Benefits:
- CEOs & Executives: Respond swiftly during high-stakes conversations.
- Directors: Stay engaged with context-rich information.
- Compliance Officers: Minimize risk of off-platform data usage.
