How it works

Govably slots into your CivicPlus workflow

You keep running meetings the way you always have. Govably adds AI minutes at the end of the process — no migration, no disruption.

1

Run your meeting

Hold your meeting in CivicPlus as normal. Stream video, record attendance, conduct votes — everything you already do.

2

Bring in the transcript

Paste your meeting transcript or a YouTube recording link into Govably. No special export format needed — any text works.

3

AI writes the minutes

Govably's AI drafts complete official minutes with motions, votes, minute order numbers, and proper formatting. Export to Word or PDF in one click.

What you gain

What Govably adds to your CivicPlus setup

Complete minutes, not summaries

Govably's AI writes the full official minutes draft — motions, seconds, vote tallies, attendance, and discussion notes — ready to review and file. Not a summary. Not bullet points.

Automatic minute order numbers

Every voted item gets an auto-generated, sequential minute order number. Enter your starting number once — Govably keeps the sequence accurate as you reorder or add items.

Ready to file in minutes

Edit sections, reorder items, toggle page breaks, and export to Word or PDF. What used to take 3–5 hours after every meeting takes under 30 minutes with Govably.

Good fit?

Common questions

Using Govably with CivicPlus

Do I have to cancel CivicPlus to use Govably?
No. Govably is designed to complement your existing setup. Many organizations use CivicPlus for video streaming and agenda management and add Govably specifically for AI minutes generation. There is no requirement to cancel, migrate, or change anything about your current CivicPlus workflow.
What specifically does Govably add for minutes that CivicPlus doesn't?
Govably's AI writes complete official meeting minutes — the full draft, not just formatting fixes or bullet-point summaries. It produces motions, seconds, vote tallies, attendance records, and sequential minute order numbers from a transcript or recording. The result is a ready-to-edit document that would take a clerk several hours to produce manually.
How do I get my CivicPlus meeting into Govably?
The simplest method is to paste your meeting transcript directly into Govably, or provide a YouTube recording link. Govably's AI identifies speakers, you confirm or adjust assignments, and then generates the full minutes draft. No special CivicPlus export or file format is needed — plain text works fine.
How quickly can I start generating AI minutes from CivicPlus meetings?
Most organizations generate their first AI minutes draft the same day they start. Setup involves configuring your section structure, member names, and minute order numbering format — typically under an hour. No hardware, no IT involvement, no lengthy onboarding. Just log in and start.
