BoardCloud Releases "Auto Minutes" the World's First Fully Automated, Context-Aware Board Minute Generation

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BoardCloud Launches Version 8.0 with "Auto Minutes" for Automated Board Meeting Records

Johannesburg, South Africa - April 29, 2026 - BoardCloud has released Version 8.0 of its board portal platform, introducing a new feature called Auto Minutes, designed to streamline the creation of board meeting minutes.

Auto Minutes moves beyond simple transcription or summarization. It combines meeting transcripts with structured board data-such as agendas, attendee roles, decisions, and voting outcomes-to produce a draft set of minutes shortly after a meeting concludes.

The feature is supported by Gladis, BoardCloud's governance-focused meeting bot. Unlike general-purpose transcription tools, Gladis is designed to recognize the structure and formality of board meetings, helping ensure that outputs align more closely with governance standards.

"Most tools today focus on summarizing conversations," said a BoardCloud representative. "What boards actually need is an accurate record of decisions, actions, and context. That's what we've built Auto Minutes to deliver."

Key features in Version 8.0 include:

Gladis Meeting Bot - Captures and transcribes meetings with an emphasis on governance terminology and boardroom structure.
Integrated Minute Drafting - Combines transcripts with agenda data, attendance records, and voting outcomes.
Structured Outputs - Produces minutes in a format aligned with common company secretarial practices.
Fast Turnaround - Draft minutes are available for review shortly after the meeting ends.

BoardCloud Version 8.0 continues to build on the platform's existing capabilities in agenda management, document distribution, and secure collaboration. The system is built on modern .NET architecture and operates in a secure, multi-tenant environment serving organizations across the USA, UK, Africa, and Australia.
