Move meeting notes, transcripts, packs, and reports into structured board minutes without typing each record from scratch.
Formal minutes from real board materials.
A thousand first drafts in the time it takes to type one.
Boardmate helps board support teams, corporate service providers, and fund administrators clear minutes backlogs, control review rounds, and carry the record into the live board cycle.
Generate DOCX drafts that already look and read like proper board minutes before anyone has typed a word by hand.
Replace email chases and manual redrafting across hundreds or thousands of funds, reporting cycles, and special meetings.
Export DOCX, PDF, action items, and the audit trail for approval.
What Boardmate accelerates
The work compounds before anyone notices.
Five hundred funds at two meetings each is already a thousand minute records. Reporting cycles, special meetings, and remediation work add more. The manual route repeats across every fund: draft, circulate, chase, decide, redraft, package, file, and carry forward.
- 01
See the gaps before drafting starts: missing files, weak transcripts, late packs, and ambiguous matches.
- 02
Generate a DOCX draft from notes, transcripts, reports, packs, and prior minutes, already structured like proper board minutes.
- 03
Gather comments through private links so reviewer input lands beside the passage it concerns.
- 04
Let the chair or delegated lead decide what changes, then regenerate from accepted feedback.
- 05
Send the approval pack out with DOCX, PDF, action items, and audit history together.
Speed with control
Fast first drafts for minutes. Faster board cycles in Companion.
Replace email markups and unclear silence with comments, uploads, and no-comment confirmations.
Regenerate from the decisions that matter instead of reconciling every markup by memory.
Keep the working file, readable copy, action items, and review history together.
Drafting speed
A proper minutes draft before anyone starts typing.
Boardmate turns notes, transcripts, recordings, board packs, previous minutes, and related reports into a DOCX draft that already looks and reads like the minutes the team expects. Review becomes checking and minor edits rather than a fresh typing job.
The team can spend the week checking judgement calls, making small corrections, routing feedback, and getting minutes approved.
Proposed and seconded votes, matters arising, report sections, tables, defined terms, and carry-forward actions stay visible.
Companion brings the same pace to the recurring governance cycle, including annual compliance work around Cayman funds where applicable.

Product shape
Lite clears the backlog in record time. Companion accelerates the board cycle.
The same product idea runs through both: take the work that normally crawls through documents, inboxes, and memory, then move it through a controlled Boardmate workspace.
Your backlog, cleared without rebuilding every meeting.
Load the meeting list and source folder. Lite drafts, checks gaps, coordinates review, regenerates from accepted feedback, and packages the output for approval.
Boardmate CompanionThe same control across the live board cycle.
Agendas, board packs, compliance calendars, report requests, actions, approvals, and governance memory move through one workspace instead of separate chases.
Governance cycle
The same tempo, carried into every board cycle.
Lite shows the acceleration on minutes backlogs. Companion applies it to the recurring work around directors: agendas, board packs, compliance calendars, minutes, actions, approvals, and memory.
- Gather Board work arrives together
Meeting details, recordings, transcripts, board packs, support notes, and separate reports stop living as separate chores.
- Draft First drafts appear fast
House-style minutes arrive quickly enough for the team to spend its time reviewing substance.
- Review Review moves cleanly
Comments, uploads, and no-comment confirmations stay attached to the draft instead of scattering through inboxes.
- Decide Chair control stays clear
Accepted comments and chair instructions shape regeneration, approval, and the minutes record that gets exported.
- Carry Companion keeps the cycle warm
DOCX, PDF, action items, audit history, approvals, compliance status, and governance memory become the starting point for the next meeting.
Four people, one cycle
The commercial case works when each reader sees their part.
CSP leadership sees the capacity case: more fund board work through the same experienced team.
The director trusts the record because comments, chair decisions, exports, and audit history are visible.
The board support officer runs the batch without rebuilding every review round from email.
The investment manager sees a current governance record across their funds and has a reason to send more work.
Process comparison
Where Boardmate gives the time back.
The benefit is practical: less typing, less chasing, fewer version comparisons, and a cleaner record for approval.
Before anyone has typed a word by hand, notes, transcripts, reports, and board packs become a structured DOCX draft that already looks like the board minutes they expect.
Staff manually type minutes from notes, transcripts, reports, and packs, then rebuild the structure meeting by meeting.
Selected passages, comments, uploads, and no-comment confirmations stay attached.
Responses arrive across email threads, marked-up documents, and silence.
Chairs and directors review decisions and exceptions instead of workflow debris.
Senior attention gets pulled into versions, chasers, and unresolved comments.
Agendas, board packs, compliance tasks, minutes, actions, approvals, and memory can stay in one connected cycle.
The board cycle restarts from scattered files, deadline trackers, inbox knowledge, and manual status checks.
Evaluation
Boardmate is easy to evaluate on real minutes work.
Bring a representative batch, agree confidentiality terms, then compare the current process with Boardmate's DOCX minutes, reviewer control, exports, and time saved. The team should quickly see whether Boardmate changes the work.
The baseline for recurring language, approvals, and routine actions.
A fuller agenda with service provider reports and more judgement calls.
A small edge case that tests whether the draft stays proportionate.
Approved wording that shows house style before generation begins.
Security and confidentiality
Security detail your team can actually review.
Boardmate explains private workspaces, reviewer links, revocation, audit history, retention, and the security review questions the team will need answered.
