One monthly cycle, four steps

Built around how an executive director actually runs the month — not how a project-management tool wishes you did.

Build the board packet

Pull the agenda, reports, and attachments into one packet — in an afternoon, not a weekend. No more version-checking email threads to figure out which PDF is current.

Send it — board members click, no logins

Board members get a zero-login link. They open the packet on any device and read it. No passwords to reset the night before the meeting.

Run the meeting

Everyone works from the same packet, and decisions and action items are captured as they happen — not reconstructed afterward from memory.

Minutes filed, follow-ups visible

Minutes get finished while the meeting is fresh instead of hanging over your week — formatted and filed in the archive. Your permanent legal record, kept current.

Three promises, in writing

Monthly. Cancel anytime.

No annual lock-in, no auto-renew traps, no "call us to cancel." If it isn't working after your next few meetings, you cancel and you're done. A board tool should earn its keep every single month.

Full-archive export, free forever

Your minutes are your permanent legal record — leave anytime with everything. Every packet, every minute, every decision exports in full, at no charge, whenever you want. The record belongs to your organization, not to us.

Published pricing, real math

The price is on this page, and the math is too: a 15-member board on the verified nonprofit plan pays $888/year — flat, all committees included. Compare that to per-member tools charging ≈$3,778/year for the same 15 people, billed annually.

How it compares to the tools you'd shortlist

The four portals a nonprofit board usually evaluates, side by side with ours. Published list pricing where it exists, checked September 2026; where a vendor only quotes after a demo, we say so. Plans change, so verify before deciding.

Cost figures for per-member and tiered tools are published list prices as of September 2026 and assume a 15-director board where the math requires one. Competitor names are trademarks of their respective owners; we're not affiliated with them. Full plan details on the pricing page.

Your minutes are a legal record — and the IRS asks about them

Form 990's governance section (Part VI) asks how your organization documents its decisions — and examiners, donors, and state regulators read those answers. The commonly cited governance standard is simple: minutes approved on time, every meeting, within about 60 days, kept as a permanent record.

Most boards don't fall behind on minutes because anyone is careless. They fall behind because the secretary reconstructs the meeting from memory a week later, from notes in three different documents. When the minutes get finished right after the meeting instead of weeks later, the 60-day standard takes care of itself.

How the half price works

No negotiations, no nonprofit discount code to remember. Your EIN does the talking.

  1. 1

    Start the 60-day free trial

    No card, no contract. It's free until after your next board meeting — long enough to run a real cycle, not a demo.

  2. 2

    Add your EIN

    One field. We check it automatically against IRS records of 501(c)(3) organizations — no paperwork to fax, no sales call to sit through.

  3. 3

    Your price locks before the first charge

    Verified organizations pay $74/month, flat per board, all committees included — locked in before any invoice is issued. If your status can't be verified, you simply stay on the standard plan.

Frequently asked questions

What does I'mBoard cost for a nonprofit?

$74/month for EIN-verified 501(c)(3) nonprofits, $149/month standard. Flat per board — every committee included, every board member included. Monthly billing, cancel anytime. No per-member fees and no per-committee fees.

How does the 60-day free trial work?

You get 60 days free — no credit card required. In practice, that means it's free until after your next board meeting (and probably the one after that), so you can judge it on a real cycle instead of a guided demo.

What does "EIN-verified" mean?

Your organization's Employer Identification Number is checked automatically against IRS records of 501(c)(3) organizations. It's a one-field, automatic check that locks in the $74/month rate before your first charge — no documents to mail, no phone call.

Do our board members need to create accounts?

No. Board members receive zero-login links — they open the packet, read it, and are done. No passwords, no resets, no "I couldn't get in." The ED and staff manage everything from the workspace.

What happens to our minutes and packets if we leave?

You take everything. Full-archive export is free, forever — your minutes are your permanent legal record, and they stay yours. Export on the way out the door takes minutes.

What does the treasurer need to approve this?

One line: $74 a month for a verified 501(c)(3), monthly, cancel anytime, full export free. Most executive directors approve it under their spending-policy threshold; this page is written so the treasurer can read it in two minutes.

Is the price really flat? What about committees?

Really flat. $74/month (verified) or $149/month (standard) covers the whole board — finance committee, governance committee, ad-hoc groups, all of it. Committees are where per-committee pricing models get expensive; that's shown in the table above too.
