Built for nonprofits of every size, so board night is about decisions, not paperwork.
The problem
You're holding the whole board together.
The packet, the minutes, the votes and the who-signed-what all land on one person, and it's usually you, the night before. Let Ember carry the board's paperwork.
Tap a problem to see what changes.

Less late-night copy-paste, more time for the decisions that move your mission.

What it feels like with Ember in your corner
Imagine walking in with quiet confidence.
Imagine it: the board meets Thursday, the packet went out Monday with your latest numbers already in, and the RSVPs told you days ago that you'd have quorum!
Every member is reading the same figures you are, each vote lands on the record, and once the meeting ends, one click starts the minutes before the coffee's cold.
Board night, minus the night before.
Sound like what you need?
Walk into your next meeting with the packet already done.

Whatever your cause
Built for the work you do.
Food banks, animal rescues, youth programs, clinics, arts groups, river cleanups: Ember fits every kind of nonprofit.

On your side
Finally, tools that treat you fairly.
Most tools were built for big companies, then priced to punish you for growing. Ember is built the other way around:
Made to fit how you work
Shaped around how nonprofits actually work, not a corporate tool squeezed into a nonprofit-shaped box.
Your whole team, included
Add every board member and officer, and each one gets a calm view of their next meeting, the packet and any vote that needs them. You're never charged per seat, so a full board never costs you more.
Your data stays yours
Export it anytime, and it’s never sold.
Frequently asked questions
Good questions, honest answers.
How do nonprofits run board meetings without the email mess?
Keep the whole meeting in one place: schedule it, and one click assembles the packet from your latest numbers and emails a link to it to every member with an email address on file. Members RSVP, read the packet and vote from the same spot, so nothing gets lost across ten inboxes.
What is board management for nonprofits?
It's one calm home for everything a board needs: meetings, packets, quorum, votes, minutes, and your roster of members and officers. Ember Board Hub gives you that home, free if your budget is under $50K a year, with no per-seat fees. Add your whole board without paying more.
What goes in a board packet, and how does it get built?
Schedule the meeting, then press Assemble & send. The packet gathers your impact numbers from Impact Reports, what you raised from Budget, your grant awards to date from Grants, your goals, and a Standing line from Compliance that says whether any filing is overdue. It snapshots the moment you send it, so every member reads the same figures, and each one gets an email that it’s ready.
How do you keep track of quorum and votes?
As members RSVP, you see how many said yes against the number you need for quorum. Each motion keeps a running for, against, and abstain count, and members can vote on an open motion from their own view before the meeting too. A motion can’t be closed until quorum is met, and each motion keeps its tally on the record.
Where do minutes and governance records live?
After each meeting, start the minutes from the record: attendance, quorum, and every motion with its tally. Mark them approved once the board signs off, and download them to keep. Your roster tracks every member’s role and term, plus who has signed this year’s conflict-of-interest statement, which members sign right in Ember. Ember doesn’t store documents yet, so keep bylaws and policies in your organization’s own Google Drive. If you handle filings too, it pairs with compliance.
Do board members need their own login?
Yes, and it stays simple for them. Each member gets a calm view with just their next meeting, the packet to read, their RSVP, and any vote that needs them. No hunting through folders, no clutter.
Do we need the other Ember apps?
No, Board Hub works fine on its own. Add reporting, grants or your books and the packet fills itself in from that live data, so nobody copies numbers over by hand.
Is it really free?
Yes. There's a real free tier with unlimited users and no trial clock. As your budget grows, a simple subscription scales with it, and every tier includes every app. Here's how pricing works.
What do we commit to?
Nothing up front, and no trial clock. If your budget is under $50K a year, Ember is free, with no credit card. Your data is encrypted, never sold, and always yours to export, which you can read about in our privacy commitment.
