Atlas Governance vs GovClerk Minutes

Atlas Governance is a workspace for preparing board meetings, managing their proceedings, and following up on decisions and actions. Its tools include agendas, minutes drafting, electronic votes, document storage, and chat, with agenda templates, recurring meetings, decision tracking, and action-item tracking. The service runs on web, Android, and iOS. Pro and higher plans include Zoom and Microsoft Teams integration; the Legacy plan lists the full AI stack: Insights, Notetaker, Compare, and Meeting Cast. Plans start at $17/user/mo (annual), with a 30-day trial that does not require a credit card. The trial provides Legacy access, then pauses until a paid plan is chosen. Atlas Gov says it uses AES-256 encryption and two-factor authentication, holds ISO 27001, 27701, 27017, 27018, and 22301 certifications, and hosts on Microsoft Azure. It says board documents are not used to train AI models and AI assistance operates by inference without retaining content. The company was founded in 2016 in Brazil and says it serves publicly listed companies, cooperatives, state-owned enterprises, and nonprofits.

GovClerk Minutes turns meeting recordings into structured draft minutes, motions, votes and action items for review and adoption. Users can record inside the service or upload audio and video, then receive a searchable transcript with speaker attribution. The recording, transcript, draft, approvals and final minutes remain together through review. A timestamped audit trail records edits, approvals and publication, including timestamp verification and access trails. Templates can match organization type and jurisdiction, while decision and resolution archiving, named approvers and policy-based retention support records handling. Word and PDF export are included in plans, and the free plan allows both downloads. The service supports six languages, bilingual minutes and automatic language detection. Its homepage states that transcripts and minutes documents use AES-256-GCM encryption; the privacy policy describes AWS storage, encryption in transit and at rest, Clerk access controls and regular security assessments. Plans cover Android, iOS and web. Free access is available; Essential is $49.17/mo billed annually.
