Click any client → every page scopes to that client. Exit → portfolio view. Hard isolation.
One discipline. One hub. Every kind of company.
Corporate secretary, compliance and governance are one job. Whether you’re a founder running one entity or a fractional secretary managing fifty, you get the same hub — sized to your stage, priced to match.
Cap-table, board pack and registers — without hiring a fractional CS yet
“You're running on Notion + DocuSign + a Carta export. Every investor due-diligence ask becomes a scramble.”
- ✓One company free, forever — sign up and import your existing entity in under 5 minutes
- ✓Auto-generated board resolutions, shareholder consents, AGM packs from your real data
- ✓Statutory registers (members, directors, charges) maintained as you operate, not patched together at year-end
- ✓Cap-table, options + grants, vesting — investor-ready exports
- ✓Audit-trail with SHA-256 chain — every governance decision provably preserved for the next DD
A single source of truth across every entity in the group
“Holding company in the UK, trading entity in the UAE, IP holdco in Cayman, payroll subsidiary in Singapore. Your spreadsheets don't talk to each other.”
- ✓Multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction with the org chart, ownership, intercompany, group-obligations all live
- ✓Filing calendar surfaces every deadline — Companies House, ACRA, DMCC, ESR, BOTA, IRAS — in one inbox
- ✓Daily registry-diff alerts catch silent changes at the registry before they become a problem
- ✓Multi-jurisdiction UBO dashboard — every PSC / RoRC / BOTA / ESR obligation rolled up
- ✓Per-event pricing means you only pay for what you file; no per-seat scaling tax
Closing rooms, contract repo, AGM voting + per-matter billing — without integration weeks
“You bill in 6-minute increments. Your "legaltech" makes you log into 4 different tools to do it.”
- ✓Closing rooms with bound-book PDFs, redline + signature tracker, per-deal request list
- ✓Contract repository with clause search, renewal alerts, party + governing-law index
- ✓AGM electronic voting — for / against / abstain, chair runs tally, outcomes lock in
- ✓Per-client billing: time + events + retainer → branded invoice with Stripe pay link
- ✓Pre-litigation hold to freeze documents and edits when a matter goes live
One hub. Every client. Hard isolation. Per-client P&L.
“You manage 5, 50 or 500 client companies. Today you split your day between disconnected client folders, a billing spreadsheet, and a calendar of filing deadlines.”
- ✓Red/Yellow/Green health grid of your whole book — click in, every page scopes to that client
- ✓JWT-locked client portals — CFOs, board secretaries and counsel see only their own company
- ✓Per-client billing rolls time, events and retainer into a one-click invoice with Stripe pay link
- ✓Recurring auto-invoice on the 1st of every month — drafts ready to send, never auto-sent
- ✓Real provider directory listing so your practice is discoverable to inbound clients
One governance operating system. Five agents. One record.
Most “AI for governance” products bolt a chatbot onto a database. GovernOS is five integrated capabilities that all read and write the same system of record — what the Copilot answers matches what the Health score shows, matches what’s in the board pack.
🤖
AI Corporate Secretary
Tell it what you want — add a director, raise capital, issue shares — in plain English. It resolves the exact approvals, documents and filings the law requires, drafts them, and updates every register.
❤️
Governance Health Agent
A continuous 0–100 governance score for every entity, with the specific issues holding it back — a live read of your record, not a static checklist.
🗳️
Board Meeting Agent
Agenda, board pack, electronic voting and minutes for every board, AGM, EGM and committee — scheduled, run and filed without leaving GovernOS.
📅
Regulatory Intelligence Agent
Every statutory deadline across your jurisdictions, ranked by urgency — sourced from the rules modelled for your entity type.
💬
Governance Copilot
Ask anything — "when's our next filing due", "who can sign for $50K" — and get the answer straight from your system of record.
Corporate secretary, compliance & governance — the smart features no one else ships
Most platforms give you a database with a login screen. We give you a workflow engine that knows the law (corporate secretary), the regulatory calendar (compliance) and the boardroom (governance) — with autocomplete that turns a five-step task into one click.
🇬🇧
One-click company import
Type a UK company name or number → live import from Companies House. Profile, officers, PSC register — populated in seconds. Single-Pass Singapore (ACRA), Cayman, Bermuda, Qatar and more coming as customers request them.
🤖
AI Action Resolver — the autocomplete for governance
Pick jurisdiction + entity type + action (add director, declare dividend, change auditor). The deterministic rules engine returns the exact approvals, registers, documents and statutory forms — with the governing law cited, defaulted to your in-context entity's law.
🚨
Registry diff alerts
Daily diff against the official public registry. Officer added, PSC changed, accounts due, status moved to "Active proposal to strike off" — emailed to the owner with a deep link, before the client emails you about it.
🌍
Multi-jurisdiction UBO rollup
PSC (UK) + RoRC (Singapore) + BOTA (Cayman) + ESR (UAE) + Bermuda BO + Qatar Real Beneficiary + Bahrain + Oman — all in one dashboard, with staleness flags so you never miss a refresh deadline.
✍️
Free, legally-valid e-signature
Native signing ceremony with SHA-256 hash, audit trail and signed PDF — no per-envelope fee. Plug in your own DocuSign or Dropbox Sign licence (your account, your cost) and we route through it instead.
💬
Compliance alerts in Slack & Teams
One incoming-webhook URL, done. Registry diffs, filing reminders, AGM notices, invoice paid events arrive in the channel where your ops team actually works.
🔒
Pre-litigation legal hold
Owner places a hold per entity (or tenant-wide). Document deletes and edits freeze; the platform refuses destructive actions and every place/release is audit-logged. Required for any law-firm customer, standard for any regulated industry.
🧾
Per-client billing — built in
Time + per-event pricing + monthly retainer roll into a branded invoice with a Stripe pay link. Auto-generated monthly. The practice-management tool legacy platforms expect you to buy separately.
Why buyers switch from legacy enterprise platforms
Legacy compliance platforms hide pricing behind a sales call, demand a year-long integration, and answer feature requests in next year’s release cycle. We publish prices, ship in days, and turn customer feedback into product.
Continuous improvement is the model. Every customer request is triaged, prioritised and shipped on a public changelog. See something missing? Email us — we’ll quote a build window in one business day.
Every corporate-secretary, compliance and governance workflow — in one place
M&A closings, board meetings, AGM voting, statutory registers, UBO regimes, document generation, client billing, enterprise SSO, audit-trail integrity. Not a roadmap — what’s shipped today.
