Gabii is a package of AI features available on the Govenda platform. The goal of this project was to enhance Govenda’s search function with generative AI to strengthen results, improve efficiency, and promote healthy board awareness.
The result is Ask Gabii, a tool board professionals, directors, and legal ops teams can use to ask specific questions about documents and agendas to garner insight on data, rules, regulations, and company information.
​
I worked closely on this project with the Govenda VP of Product from concept to design. Govenda's early involvement with AI and corporate governance was the driving factor in being acquired by OnBoard, a major competitor, in spring 2024.
Process
Initially, a main focus was figuring out how to differentiate Ask Gabii from Govenda’s standard search until we found it more effective to intertwine Gabii with search. As you search for a document, you can then refine asking Gabii details about that result.
Branding
Simultaneously, I worked on naming and branding to accurately reflect its capabilities and compliment the Gabii feature library. As the third feature in the Gabii package (Summaries, Minutes, Ask), we already were working with a branded system and naming convention. The main goal was to find a consistent solution to fall into our system that accurately reflects the feature's purpose while being short, easy to understand, and easy to find.
As Ask Gabii progressed we found that there were limitations to what type of questions you can ask Gabii. There must be guides on specific use cases or questions you can ask Gabii to help individuals get started.
​
The solution was to include prompts or suggested questions to ask and a way to specify if you are asking a question about a certain document.

Solution
Once we landed on an optimal solution through conversations with QA, Customer Success, and Engineering, the UI was refined to both the admin and member app for desktop, tablet, and mobile.
In preparation for the launch date, I wrote and animated a video for use on the website, email, and social. As well, I wrote and designed native ads to generate leads.
