I used to spend 3 hours before every board meeting chasing PMs for updates. Now it takes 12 seconds.
Real story. Every two weeks I had a board/directors meeting.
The night before — or worse, the morning of — I'd be opening Jira, Notion, Slack, and three different spreadsheets trying to piece together what's actually happening across every team.
Then I'd message 4–5 PMs: "Hey, what's the status on X?" Half of them would reply after the meeting started.
I'd spend 2–3 hours building a slide deck that was already outdated by the time I presented it. And the directors would ask questions I couldn't answer live because the data was from yesterday.
That was the problem I built Planora OS to solve.
Here's what happens now:
Every task, initiative, and sprint on our roadmap is live inside Planora OS — organized by department and project. The AI knows:
✅ What's completed this sprint
⚠️ What's at risk and why
🔴 What's blocked and for how long
📊 What effort has gone in vs what's left
🗂️ Which department owns what
When I walk into a board meeting, I hit one button. Planora generates a full executive presentation — not a generic summary, but one that's aware of the actual state of every project and department in that moment.
It knows if engineering had a tough sprint. It knows if the marketing initiative is 3 weeks behind. It knows which tasks were deprioritized and why. That context is what makes it completely different from asking ChatGPT to "summarize my project" — because ChatGPT doesn't know your project.
What makes this different from every other AI tool:
Most AI presentation tools take your input and dress it up nicely. That's it.
Planora's AI works from the inside out. It's not summarizing what you tell it — it's reading the live state of your roadmap, your tasks, your sprint effort, your blocked items, your department structure, and generating a board-ready presentation from that.
You can generate it per project. Per department. Or the full company view.
The output is something you can actually present — with context a director or investor would ask about — in about 12 seconds.
For anyone who's been in this position:
👉 Bi-weekly meeting with directors in 2 hours
👉 Jira open in one tab, Notion in another, Slack DMs flying
👉 Copying and pasting status updates into slides manually
👉 Presenting a deck that's already 24 hours stale
That's not a you problem. That's a tooling problem. And it's the most common thing I hear from PMs and heads of product.
Would love to know — how do you currently prepare for your board or stakeholder meetings? What does that process look like for your team? 👇
We're live on Product Hunt today — honest feedback welcome, especially from PMs who've felt this pain.
