Board prep in HarborOS isn’t a separate exercise from running the business — the pack is built from the same numbers you’ve been working with all month. Instead of rebuilding charts in a slide tool, you assemble them from your live data and export.

​
Build the pack from Beacon

The Board surface holds the charts and snippets you’ve pinned from Beacon. The flow is simple: ask Beacon for what you want — ARR over time, customer concentration, a renewal timeline, an ARR waterfall, a board-ready KPI slide — and when it draws something you want to keep, pin it to the board. Each pinned block is built from a real lookup against your data, so nothing on your board is a number you typed into a slide by hand. You arrange the pinned blocks into the pack you want, then remove anything you don’t need.

​
Export to PowerPoint

When the pack is ready, export it to .pptx. You get a PowerPoint deck of your board blocks — titles, KPI slides, and charts — that you can drop into your own template or present as-is. Because it came from your live numbers, the deck matches what’s in HarborOS exactly; there’s no reconciliation between “the system” and “the deck.”

​
Share a fixed view instead

Sometimes you don’t need a deck — you need to hand someone a number they can open and trust. Most of HarborOS’s outputs can be shared through a private link: A shared link is a frozen view the recipient opens without an account, while your live numbers keep moving underneath. It’s useful for a board member or investor who wants to look between meetings.

​
Why it holds up

The reason this matters isn’t convenience — it’s defensibility. Every chart in the pack and every shared view traces back to the contracts behind it. When someone asks how a number was built, the answer isn’t “I’ll check the spreadsheet” — it’s already in the system, and you can open it. That’s the whole point: walk into the board meeting able to stand behind every number on the screen.
