What Ask Boardable Does Not Do
Admin Settings and Conversation Access
Before You Begin
Ask Boardable is part of Boardable.AI. It lets admins, members, and observers request meeting information and handle board work by email, without logging in. Access is limited to the information each person has permission to view.
Email ask@boardable.ai with a request. Ask Boardable replies in the same email thread.
Ask Boardable can also send reminders about upcoming meetings, including outstanding RSVPs and unread board packets. Reminders are bundled into a single message to reduce the number of emails members receive.
What You Can Ask
Use Ask Boardable to:
- Get meeting details, including the schedule, agenda, minutes, and meeting attachments.
- RSVP to a meeting.
- Look up your own tasks and polls.
- Ask how to do something in Boardable.
Ask Boardable uses meeting context to answer requests. If a request falls outside its supported scope, it explains the limitation and offers alternatives.
Important: Responses include a note that they were generated by AI. Verify the information before relying on it.
What Ask Boardable Does Not Do
Ask Boardable cannot:
- Create, edit, or complete tasks.
