Board management software for nonprofit boards
Stop drowning in emails and spreadsheets. Board I.V. puts the agenda, the board packet, minutes, motions and votes, tasks, documents and compliance dates in one place — so the work between meetings does not depend on anyone's memory.
Start your free trial — 14 days of Professional, no credit card required. Free forever for boards of 1-3.
What it fixes
- Two hours hunting for documents before every meeting. Build the board packet from the agenda itself; each item carries its own documents and motions.
- Three hours typing up minutes afterwards. Take notes in the agenda, then turn them into formal minutes with the motions and vote counts already recorded.
- Reply-all vote chaos. Run motions and polls with a clean digital vote record and an audit trail you can hand to your auditor.
- Decisions that die after the meeting. A passed motion becomes an owned, dated task, and everyone can see whether it happened.
- A new trustee with no context. New members self-serve twelve months of packets, minutes, policies and financials on their first day.
- Compliance you remember late. 990 filing dates, state registrations, board terms, conflict-of-interest disclosures and D&O renewals all tracked with reminders.

Who uses it
Nonprofit boards, churches, social service agencies, schools, foundations, associations and volunteer-run groups — usually an executive director, a board chair and a secretary who are doing this work in evenings.
Pricing — published, flat, not per user
Enterprise board portals run $5,000 to $30,000 a year and quote you per seat. Board I.V. is a flat price for the whole board: every trustee is covered up to the plan's included member limit, and extra seats are $5/seat/month on Free or Standard if you grow past it.
| Plan | Price | Board size | Document storage | Built for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free — Small board | $0/month | 1-3 members | 500MB | A brand-new or tiny board getting organised |
| Standard — Growing nonprofit | $39/month or $390/year (2 months free) | Up to 15 members (extra seats $5/mo) | 10GB | A working board with agendas, minutes, votes and financials |
| Professional — Multi-committee board | $89/month or $890/year (2 months free) | Unlimited members | 100GB | Committees, compliance calendar, 990 tracking, strategic plan |
Most boards pick Standard ($39/month). Annual billing is $390 or $890 — two months free. There is no per-user line, no setup fee and no implementation project.
What the price includes on every paid plan: a 14-day free trial of Professional with no credit card, cancel or downgrade in one click from Settings, your data exportable at any time, and a human answering support@boardiv.com.
For comparison, enterprise board portals (OnBoard, BoardEffect, Diligent) quote $5,000-$30,000 a year and Boardable bills per user, so a 15-person board pays 15 times. Compare every feature side by side on the plan comparison page.
Questions boards ask before they sign up
"Enterprise board portals are priced for someone else."
They are. That is why the price is $39 or $89 a month for the whole board, published on the site, with no demo call in the way. Boards of 1-3 pay nothing, permanently.
"Half our board is not technical. They will never adopt it."
Board members receive an email link and see the agenda, the packet and their tasks. There is no software to install, it works on a phone, and a member who forgets a password gets a one-click reset instead of missing the meeting.
"Will the cheap tier actually hold our documents?"
Free is 500MB, Standard 10GB, Professional 100GB, and the limits are written on the pricing page rather than discovered after you upload the board packet. You can move up or down a tier at any time.
"Who sees our minutes and 990 files?"
Only people you invite. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, scoped to your organization, and never sold or used to train outside models. Roles control who can open financials, evaluations and compliance records.
Who Board I.V. is not for
It is not built for corporate, public-company or venture-backed boards, and not for organizations that need SOC 2 attestation, HIPAA BAAs or SSO today. If that is you, an enterprise portal is the right buy.
Who builds it
Board I.V. is built by Joe Morrison, who has spent 40 years inside nonprofit boardrooms watching good people run bad processes. More about Joe and how we handle your data.
