For Board Members

For board members who make governance decisions at the whiteboard.

BoardSnap is an iOS app that turns whiteboard photos into structured summaries and action plans in ten seconds. For board members, that means strategy discussion boards, governance working sessions, and committee deliberations produce clean written records — the documentation that corporate governance requires and that institutional memory depends on.

What hurts today

  • Strategy discussions at board retreats produce rich analytical thinking on the board that needs to become a clean governance record — not a photo that gets buried in the board meeting materials
  • Committee working sessions between formal board meetings — audit, compensation, nominating — produce important deliberations that deserve systematic documentation
  • Board member prep sessions where you're working through a complex issue on the board generate structured thinking that should feed your questions in the formal meeting
  • Advisory board sessions where the board is working through a strategic challenge with the executive team produce high-stakes content that needs a clean written record
  • The gap between a productive board strategy session and a formal board resolution that captures what was agreed is where governance risk lives
  • Board member notes from whiteboard discussions are inconsistent across individuals — creating different records of the same discussion

How BoardSnap helps

  • Snap a board strategy session and get a structured summary — the options discussed, the direction indicated, the open questions deferred — the governance record before the session closes
  • Committee working session boards produce structured deliberation summaries — the issues considered, the positions taken, the decisions recommended — the input for the formal committee minutes
  • Prep session boards produce a structured analysis of the issue — your own framing, the risks you've identified, the questions you want to ask — the board member's prep document
  • Advisory board session boards produce a structured strategy summary that both the board and the executive team leave with — the shared understanding documented at the source
  • Brand-aware AI writes governance summaries in your organization's language — your company's strategic framing, your governance vocabulary, your board's analytical approach
  • Projects keep each board engagement organized — strategy session history, committee deliberations, and advisory sessions all accessible for the next board cycle

Features that matter for board members

Brand-aware AI

Paste the company's strategic plan URL or board charter. BoardSnap AI learns the company's strategic framing, the governance vocabulary, and the board's analytical approach — governance summaries are substantive, not generic.

Projects per board engagement

One project per company's board engagement. Strategy sessions, committee deliberations, and advisory sessions all organized in one searchable place — the full board history available for governance continuity.

AI chat per project

Frequently asked

Is BoardSnap appropriate for formal board governance documentation?

BoardSnap produces structured summaries of whiteboard content — the raw material for governance documentation, not the formal governance record itself. Use BoardSnap for working sessions, strategy discussions, and committee deliberations. The formal board minutes are drafted by the corporate secretary and approved by the board. BoardSnap produces the working record that feeds that process.

How does it help with board committee deliberations?

Snap the committee working session board when the deliberation reaches a natural conclusion. BoardSnap produces a structured summary of the issues considered, the positions expressed, and the recommendation reached — the input for the committee minutes. The corporate secretary works from a structured summary rather than reconstructing the deliberation from individual members' notes.

Can BoardSnap help with board member individual prep?

Yes — board members use it to document their own analysis of complex agenda items. Sketch your analysis of the strategic issue at a whiteboard. Snap. BoardSnap produces a structured prep document — your framing, the risks you see, the questions you want to ask. Prep with a written document, not mental notes.

Is it useful for advisory board sessions?

Yes — advisory board sessions where the board is working through a strategic challenge with management benefit significantly from having a clean written record that both parties receive. Snap the session board. The advisory recommendation is documented at the source — not re-interpreted in a follow-up email.

How does it handle sensitive governance discussions?

BoardSnap processes images through secure API calls. For sensitive governance discussions (executive session, succession planning, compensation review), ensure the content drawn on the board matches what you're comfortable processing through the app. For the most sensitive discussions, verbal deliberation without board documentation is also appropriate — BoardSnap is for working sessions, not every governance discussion.
