The Preside Difference
Six reasons organizations are switching from legacy board portals to Preside.
AI-Native Intelligence
Preside ships with 4 built-in AI capabilities: meeting summaries, board book generation, governance insights, and an AI board advisor. Competitors offer 0-1 AI features, often as paid add-ons.
Transparent Published Pricing
Preside is the only board portal with fully published pricing on our website. No sales calls required, no hidden fees. Every competitor hides their pricing behind a sales process.
Global Regulatory Coverage
Access 34+ governance regulations across 11 jurisdictions including full GCC coverage (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman). No competitor offers in-platform regulatory libraries.
Enterprise Security
Encryption in transit and at rest, comprehensive audit trails, role-based access control, and GDPR data subject rights. Your board data is protected with the highest security standards.
Modern Technology
Built on Next.js 14 with real-time collaboration and AI-native architecture from the ground up. Not legacy software from 2005 with AI bolted on as an afterthought.
Free Tier Available
Start free with up to 3 board members. No credit card required, no sales conversations. Upgrade only when you are ready. Every competitor requires a sales call just to see pricing.
