For Non-Profit Leaders

For non-profit leaders who do more with less.

BoardSnap is an iOS app that turns whiteboard photos into structured summaries and action plans in ten seconds. For non-profit leaders, that means strategic planning sessions, program design discussions, and board alignment meetings produce clean written artifacts — without the documentation staff that most non-profits can't afford.

Download on the App Store Free to start. Pro from $9.99/mo or $69.99/yr.

What hurts today

  • Strategic planning sessions with the board and leadership team produce the most important organizational decisions that never get cleanly documented because nobody on a lean non-profit team has time to transcribe them
  • Program design sessions where you're mapping the theory of change, the target population, and the intervention logic need to produce a written program design document before funding applications are written
  • Donor stewardship planning boards — cultivation strategy, proposal approach, relationship map — produce important institutional knowledge that walks out when a development officer leaves
  • Board meeting preparation involves synthesizing a lot of information at a whiteboard — the board deck outline, the key decisions needed, the narrative — that deserves a clean written record
  • Volunteer coordination sessions produce role assignments and logistics decisions that need to reach everyone clearly — not through a blurry board photo in a group chat
  • Impact measurement planning — what you're measuring, why, how — is the most under-documented work in the sector, and it starts with a whiteboard

How BoardSnap helps

  • Snap a strategic planning session and get a structured summary — organizational priorities, resource implications, key decisions, action items — the planning document your team executes from
  • Theory of change boards produce a structured program design document — inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes — the logic model your grant application needs
  • Donor cultivation strategy boards produce a structured relationship plan — the portfolio, the approach for each donor, the sequencing, the ask
  • Board prep boards produce a structured narrative outline — the session's story arc, the key metrics, the decisions needed from the board
  • Brand-aware AI writes planning summaries in your mission language — your program vocabulary, your theory of change framing, your organizational voice
  • Projects keep each program area isolated — leadership planning, development strategy, and program design boards all organized separately

Features that matter for non-profit leaders

Brand-aware AI

Paste your organization's mission statement page, your program overview, or your theory of change URL. BoardSnap AI learns your mission vocabulary, your program framing, and your organizational language — planning summaries speak your mission, not generic nonprofit jargon.

Projects per program area

Separate projects for leadership strategy, development, and each program area. Each project has isolated board history — the full planning arc for each organizational function is searchable and organized.

Pinned context

Pin your strategic plan, your theory of change, or your grant deliverables. Every planning session already knows the organizational context — the AI chat gives advice grounded in your mission and your current commitments.

Offline queue

Non-profit planning happens in community spaces, borrowed conference rooms, and off-site retreats — rarely in well-connected offices. BoardSnap queues on-device and processes when signal returns.

Tri-state action items

Non-profit work is all about delivering more with less. Open / in-progress / done with auto-generated subtasks — the accountability system that makes planning sessions translate into organizational action.

Frequently asked

Is BoardSnap affordable for non-profits on constrained budgets?

Free plan includes one project and 30 boards — enough for a lean non-profit leader to evaluate the tool for a single planning cycle. Pro is $9.99/month or $69.99/year. For organizations where a single staff member's time saved on documentation translates directly to more mission work, most non-profit leaders find the value clear.

Can BoardSnap help with grant writing and logic model documentation?

Yes — snap the theory of change or logic model board from your program design session. BoardSnap produces a structured logic model description — inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes — that serves as the foundation for your grant narrative. The program design thinking is documented at the source, not reconstructed when the RFP arrives.

How does it help with board governance for non-profits?

Snap strategy and planning session boards at board retreats and working sessions. BoardSnap produces structured summaries that feed the board minutes and the organizational planning process. For lean non-profit boards without dedicated staff support, it replaces the role of a note-taker in planning sessions.

Is it useful for volunteer coordination and program logistics?

Yes — snap the volunteer role assignment board or the program logistics planning board. BoardSnap produces a structured coordination plan — who's doing what, when, with what resources — that can be shared with the volunteer team before they leave the orientation or planning session.

How does the brand-aware AI work for mission-driven organizations?

Paste your organization's website, your program overview page, or your theory of change document URL. BoardSnap AI reads your mission language, your beneficiary population framing, and your organizational vocabulary. Planning summaries then reflect the way your organization thinks and talks about its work — appropriate for internal use and for donor communications.
