Ask any strata manager what they dread most, and the answer is often "AGM Season." The sheer volume of documentation required to legally convene a meeting in 2026 is staggering: agendas, financials, insurance certificates, valuation reports, proxy forms, and nomination papers.

In legacy systems, compiling an AGM pack is a partial, if not fully, manual assembly job. In StrataPort it is a "Zero-Touch" computation.

  During the meeting, StrataPort doesn't just record text; it captures data. When you record a vote or a decision, you are updating the system's "truth."

**Attendance**, quorum is calculated instantly based on lot entitlement liabilities including lot owner financial status.

**Voting**, electronic proxies lodged pre-meeting are automatically tallied.

**Financials**, adopting the budget automatically updates the levy schedule for the next year.

"Zero-Touch" AGM Setup doesn't mean the manager isn't involved, it means the manager is involved in the _meeting_, not the paperwork. By automating the assembly and the follow-up, StrataPort frees the manager to focus on what matters: guiding the owners corporation through complex decisions.
