Board of Directors Voting

Voting Platform for
Boards of Directors

Keep your meeting moving. Open and close motions in real time, run director elections, and walk away with a documented governance record for every decision, including your annual general meeting (AGM).

Board meetings should not stall on vote counting

Informal voting methods cost your board time and leave gaps in your governance record.

Meetings slow down when counting takes time

Hand-counting or voice votes on contested motions interrupt the agenda. Every minute spent counting is a minute that could go toward running the meeting.

No formal record of how the vote went

Minutes often only record the outcome. A complete governance record requires knowing participation, the vote split, and a verifiable audit trail for any future challenge.

Remote directors cannot participate equally

Boards with remote members struggle to hold formal votes. Email chains and screen-share polls are informal and leave gaps in the governance record.

Built for how boards actually work

Fast enough for a live meeting. Formal enough for your governance files.

Real-time motion voting

Open and close each motion during the meeting. Results appear the instant voting closes, with a clear For/Against/Abstain breakdown.

Anonymous or transparent voting

By default, ballots are anonymous. This protects directors voting on sensitive matters without concern for personal pressure.

Director elections with configurable seats

Run elections for one or multiple board seats in the same session as your motions. "Vote for up to 2 directors" is handled automatically.

Instant results on screen

Results display immediately when voting closes. No pause in the meeting, no manual calculation, no risk of transcription error.

Governance-grade audit trail

Export results summaries, participation records, and a complete admin activity log for your minute book and compliance files.

Works for remote and hybrid boards

Board members join from anywhere and vote from their phone or laptop. No app required. Magic links handle authentication in one click.

Affordable for any board size

Free plan for boards up to 50 members. Pro at $220 per year for up to 120 members with unlimited motions and custom branding. Add capacity for larger organizations.
