Pelham, NH: 5 hours of minutes down to 25 minutes. Read the story
Clerks spend hours replaying meeting video to write minutes. Govably does that work for you, for city councils, town boards, county commissions and school boards.
Drop in a link from YouTube, Zoom, Vimeo, Granicus, Swagit, CivicPlus or your own website. No new equipment.
It transcribes the meeting, puts a name on every speaker, and writes out each motion and vote in your minutes format.
Every line links back to its moment in the recording, so your team can check it, fix it and approve it with confidence.
“A two-hour board meeting used to mean about five hours of work for me. We had those minutes finished in twenty-five minutes, and that was the first set I ever built in the tool.”
Govably hears every voice in the room and puts a name on each one. Confirm a board member once and VoicePrint knows them at every meeting after, getting sharper each time you confirm a speaker. Next month, your members are already named before you open the minutes.
Govably writes out each motion in full, in the order your minutes call for. Who moved it, who seconded it, the motion language, every member's vote by name and the result. You don't rebuild a single motion from the video.
Govably writes the minutes, but your team has the final word. Every line ties back to its moment in the recording, so your clerk, deputy or administrator can check it, fix it and approve it. You never have to take the AI’s word for it.
Paste a link. Govably transcribes the meeting, names every board member, finds every motion and vote, writes the minutes in your style, and flags the one spot it isn’t sure of.
