In the world of homeowners associations (HOAs), every decision made can significantly impact the daily lives of its members. From budget approvals to implementing community rules, the decision-making process is crucial. However, this process comes with its challenges, particularly when it comes to gathering everyone in the same space or ensuring every voice is heard. This is where our story with Meet&Vote begins, not just as a tool but as a bridge to a more connected and participative community.
An Unexpected Turn Towards Innovation
Our journey to developing Meet&Vote started with a complex task: creating voting systems for national assemblies. Through this experience, we faced firsthand the challenges of managing large groups, facilitating orderly discussions, and recording votes efficiently and securely. However, it was our collaboration with a local HOA, struggling to adapt to the restrictions of a global pandemic, that illuminated our path to a comprehensive solution.
Like many others, this HOA faced difficulties in conducting their usual in-person meetings, risking participation and decision-making. The need for a solution that could adapt to these unprecedented times was clear. Inspired by this need, we took what we learned from our previous experiences and merged it with a new vision: to create a platform that not only facilitated real-time voting but also allowed for complete management of an HOA meeting, from agenda setting to discussion transcription.
A New Way to Connect
Meet&Vote became that solution. Imagine being able to plan your meeting agenda in advance, assign specific speaking times for each topic, and conduct real-time voting, all while each participant joins from the comfort of their home. The ability to automatically record and transcribe every discussion meant that no one would miss out, even if they couldn’t attend at the moment.
Overcoming Challenges Together
Adopting Meet&Vote by various HOAs revealed touching stories of communities that, for the first time in a long time, saw increased participation in their meetings. Stories like that of an HOA that managed to approve a long-postponed refurbishment thanks to the ease of voting and participation that Meet&Vote offered. Or that of another community that could resolve long-standing disputes by ensuring everyone had a fair and orderly chance to be heard.
Looking to the Future
As we participate in the Palm Beach Condo & HOA Expo, we seek not just to present a tool but to share a vision. A vision of communities where every member feels valued, heard, and part of the decisions shaping their environment. With Meet&Vote, we believe in the power to transform HOA meetings from merely transactional to genuinely transformative.
In this era of constant change, Meet&Vote stands not just as a solution but as a companion on the journey towards more inclusive, participative, and connected communities. We invite all HOAs to explore how, together, we can make this ideal a reality.
