April 2026 — AI Meeting Assistant, Contracts refresh
The last few weeks have seen some great new features and improvements. We've shipped a new AI Meeting Assistant, rebuilt Contracts from the ground up and polished dozens of corners across the app. Here's what's new.
Meet your new AI Meeting Assistant
Your 1-on-1s and team meetings now have a co-pilot. Aboard's new AI Meeting Assistant automatically joins your meetings, transcribes the conversation, writes a clean summary, and — here's the best part — suggests follow-up tasks based on what was actually discussed.
🎙️ Automatic transcription in the language you spoke, not just the language of your UI
📝 Smart summaries delivered right after the meeting ends
✅ Suggested tasks you can accept into your 1-on-1 with a single click
No more copy-pasting from Otter into a Notion doc into a task list. The notes, the summary, and the next steps all live together, inside the employee's timeline, right where your next 1-on-1 will pick up.
Available now as part of the Aboard Co-pilot add-on.
Contracts, completely rebuilt
Contracts in Aboard just leveled up - designed for HR teams that run dozens of contracts a week and want a single source of truth.
A dedicated Contracts page - Everything in one place. Filter by status, signer, or template. Spot what's stuck, what's signed, and what needs your attention — without digging through profiles.
Send to external signers - Need to send a contract to a candidate who hasn't started? Now you can. External signers receive a secure signing link, and the signed contract lands back in Aboard automatically.
Invite collaborators - no more swapping Word docs over Slack.
Attachments, built in - Append handbooks, policies, addendums, or anything else that belongs with the contract. All stored together, versioned, and available to signers.
Placeholder detection - Aboard now flags any unfilled variables before you send — so "Dear {first_name}" never goes out again.
Other improvements include
Certifications - Bulk-assign certifications to multiple profiles at once
Refreshed People directory - A responsive, mobile-friendly people list that highlights birthdays, work anniversaries, and new joiners — making it easier to connect, celebrate, and welcome.
Posts - Audience targeting by department and location - stop blasting everyone
