About Govably
Govably helps local governments prepare agendas, run meetings, write minutes and publish public records. Staff submit a meeting recording and receive an editable draft for review. The software names speakers, organizes motions and votes, and matches the government's format.
Govably serves local bodies including cities, counties and school boards. Pelham, New Hampshire, reduced five hours of minutes work to 25 minutes. Govably, Inc. is based in Boston. Matthew Ryan Wilson is its president, an executive officer and a director.

Why Investors Backed Govably
Govably sells meeting-records software to local governments. It targets the hours clerks spend replaying videos and drafting minutes. Staff retain final approval before any record is published. A client success manager helps set up each customer's format and early meetings.
The problem it targets
Local government clerks can spend hours replaying meeting videos to prepare official minutes. The record must identify speakers and capture each motion. It must also record movers, seconders and votes by member. Each government has its own headings, wording and format. The workflow also needs human review because uncertain passages require checking. Staff decide when a record is ready for publication.
What the product does
The platform accepts links from YouTube, Zoom and Granicus. Users may instead upload a recording. Its speaker-recognition system, called VoicePrint, separates voices and remembers confirmed members for later meetings. It identifies the mover and seconder for each motion. It also records member votes and the result. A timeline connects each line to the recording, while uncertain spots receive flags. Users can publish minutes, recordings and searchable transcripts to a public portal.
