Governance shouldn't be the hardest part of running your community organisation

Many community-based organisations run on volunteers – and volunteers turn over. When a committee member moves on, their knowledge, documents, and history typically often go with them. Add in scattered email threads, mismatched document versions, and board packs cobbled together the night before a meeting, and it's no wonder community based organisations struggle to stay on top of their governance obligations.

BoardPro exists to fix exactly this – without adding cost or complexity that community-based organisations can't absorb.

Every hour spent reconstructing what happened last year or on admin is an hour not spent on why your board exists in the first place, which is more grants and more people doing good in their community.

BoardPro keeps your board's decisions, documents and obligations in one place, so continuity doesn't depend on who's still around. Less time rebuilding what you already knew, more time on the real-world impact your community is there to deliver.

Faster meeting prep

Build agendas once, auto-generate and distribute board packs in minutes.

A single source of truth

Centralised, secure document library with version control – no more “which file is the latest?”

AI Assistant

Integrated AI assistant that lets you ask natural language questions of your entire document library.

Minutes in Minutes

Ability to upload a meeting transcript and have it instantly turned into minutes, decisions and actions ready for sharing.

Accountability

Every decision, vote, and action item tracked and time-stamped automatically.

Support for every committee

Role-based access so your Finance, Risk, and Nominations committees each see only what's relevant to them.

No tech skills needed

A 10-minute learning curve for non-technical users – no IT support, no lengthy onboarding.

Not a corporate tool with the edges filed off

Most board portals are built for listed companies and retrofitted for the NFP and community sector. BoardPro was built from the ground up for volunteer-led, federated organisations – so it's just as usable for a first-time committee member as it is for a company director.

Pricing that doesn't punish you for having committees

Board portals are typically priced per user or per seat – a real barrier when your organisation runs three or four active committees alongside the board. BoardPro doesn't charge per user. Ever. Our low price of NZD$495 (Essentials plan) per committee covers your organisation.

No lock-in

Month-to-month or annual, your choice. No multi-year contracts, no exit penalties.

Australasian, end to end

Australasian data hosting, Australian and New Zealand-based support teams, and pricing in NZD. BoardPro servers and client data are hosted in the Microsoft Azure datacentres in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia.

*An additional 20% CGA Partnership Discount

Available for 12 months after your trial ends. This is a first-year discount of 20% to all CGA member organisations

Bring on your committees

Add committees to your board account from as little as NZD$495 per committee.

What this looks like in practice:

Smaller community organisations can get started from as little as $990 plus GST per year (Essentials plan, plus the CGA discount of *20% applied against your first-year subscription. The Essentials plan does NOT include AI features).
BoardPro Premium plans (from $1,650 plus GST (less *20% against your first year subscription) include all AI features)
Every plan includes unlimited users, so cost never scales with how many directors, staff, or volunteers need access.

Start a trial

Guided setup, no credit card required to explore.

Bring your committees on board

Role-based access set up for your full governance structure from day one. Committees at NZD$495 per annum.

Ongoing support

New Zealand and Australian-based customer success team, on-demand training resources, live support when you need it.

Most organisations are fully set up within days, not weeks. Because there's a 10-minute learning curve, you won't need to run extensive training sessions to get your board using it properly.

Yes, absolutely – even if your current contract hasn't come to an end yet. Every situation is different so let’s have a chat.

Your organisation owns its data. Board packs, minutes, and documents can be exported at any time.
