The Growth plan ($199/month) is the sweet spot for organizations that want a regular board cadence. With four live sessions, six executive reviews, and four director sessions per month, you can build a sustainable leadership rhythm.
Your Growth Limits
- 2,000,000 AI tokens
- 4 live sessions
- 6 executive reviews
- 4 director sessions
- 1,500 video participant minutes
- 10 GB document storage
Who Growth Fits Best
- Leadership teams meeting weekly or biweekly
- Growing businesses that need ongoing strategic input between major decisions
- Organizations with multiple team members joining live sessions via video
- Owners who want the board embedded in monthly operations, not just quarterly reviews
Recommended Monthly Rhythm
A balanced Growth cadence might look like this:
- Week 1 — Live session: monthly strategic review and KPI check-in
- Week 2 — Executive review on a major decision in flight; director session for a domain deep dive
- Week 3 — Live session: leadership standup on open actions and urgent topics
- Week 4 — Executive review to set next month's priorities; optional live session for year-end or quarterly planning
This uses roughly 3–4 live sessions, 2–3 executive reviews, and 1–2 director sessions — leaving room for ad-hoc needs.
Assign Each Meeting Type A Job
LIVE SESSIONS — the board table
- Use for decisions that need real-time deliberation, voting, and human participation
- Hold a monthly full board for strategic review and KPIs
- Add weekly or biweekly leadership standups for urgent topics and open actions
- Prepare 2–3 focused agenda items per session
- Upload documents before meetings and review open action items first
EXECUTIVE REVIEWS — the async strategy engine
- Submit briefings between live sessions so the board keeps working while you execute
- Use for growth decisions, hiring choices, market expansion, and operational pivots
- Be specific about questions and desired outcomes
- Attach financials, market data, or proposals when relevant
- Bring recommendations into your next live session as consent or decision items
DIRECTOR SESSIONS — deep 1:1 expertise
- Use for weekly KPI or cash-flow check-ins with your finance director
- Schedule domain deep dives before elevating topics to the full board
- Pick the director whose discipline matches the question
- Export session summaries as PDFs for your leadership file
Team Structure At Scale
Growth organizations usually have more people in the room:
- Owner — CEO or founder; billing, coach connection, final authority
- Administrator — COO or ops lead; scheduling, governance, team management
- Board Member — partners and executives who vote and chair
- Advisor — external consultants who contribute but do not vote
- Viewer — silent observers who need read-only access
Give Administrators scheduling control so the CEO is not the bottleneck for every meeting.
Governance And Documentation
With more meetings, consistent procedure matters:
- Choose the right parliamentary mode (Account → Governance) before ramping your cadence
- Set governance rules once — vote thresholds, debate limits, consent agendas
- Approve minutes and memory entries promptly after each session
- Use motions and votes deliberately — every resolution is recorded with an audit trail
See Parliamentary Modes Explained and Governance Settings for details.
Documents And Memory
- Centralize financials, strategic plans, and recurring reports in your document library
- Keep your Company Profile and KPIs current — directors perform better with accurate context
- Review institutional memory periodically; approve entries that should carry forward
- 10 GB supports regular uploads; archive files you no longer need for active deliberation
Coach Integration
If you work with a Board OS Partner coach:
- Link via Account → Organization with their invite code
- Pair coach accountability goals with regular executive reviews and live check-ins
- Coach observations flow into future AI board meetings automatically
See Connecting a Business Coach for details.
Usage Monitoring
Track consumption on your dashboard and Account → Plan & billing:
- Director sessions — your tightest recurring cap at four per month
- Video minutes — 1,500 supports regular multi-participant meetings but accumulates with long sessions
- AI tokens — 2M handles regular use; very document-rich sessions add up
- Storage — 10 GB is generous for most teams; still worth periodic cleanup
Limits reset each billing period.
When To Upgrade To Enterprise
Consider Enterprise ($499/month) when you regularly hit Growth limits — especially live sessions, executive reviews, or video minutes — and want the board embedded in week-to-week leadership operations.
See Enterprise Plan Best Practices for guidance on that tier.
When Starter May Be Enough
If you only hold one or two live sessions per month and a handful of executive reviews, Growth may be more than you need. See Starter Plan Best Practices.
