Diligent One

Board governance vendor extended into risk, audit and compliance

Overview

Diligent Boards is the board portal of Diligent Corporation, which describes itself as the leading AI platform for governance, risk and compliance[1]. Diligent states that it has 25,000 customers and that one million users and more than 700,000 board members and leaders rely on its software[1].

Diligent’s governance line includes Diligent Boards, BoardEffect, Entities (for subsidiary and entity management), Community and Diligent Market Intelligence, while its risk and audit lines include enterprise risk management, IT compliance, ACL Analytics and internal controls[1]. These are combined in the Diligent One Platform, which centralises board management and GRC activities[1]. Its Diligent Institute publishes research on directors, including the 2026 report What Directors Think[1].

Diligent targets public companies, private companies, nonprofits, education and local government, and offers use cases such as proxy-season preparation and achieving FedRAMP compliance[1]. It does not publish prices. Its breadth is an advantage for organisations wanting board, entity and risk tools from one vendor, but can mean more product than a single board needs.
