Everything you need to know to use Parlia Pro confidently โ before, during, and after any meeting.
Parlia Pro is built for the exact moment someone challenges a ruling, calls the wrong motion, or tries to railroad the meeting. Just type what's happening in plain English โ no need to know the technical term. Parlia will look it up and tell you exactly what to say.
Use your email and password. Your session stays active for the entire meeting โ no need to sign back in.
Tap your role โ Chair, Member, Secretary, Treasurer, etc. This tells Parlia how to frame every answer. A Chair gets word-for-word rulings. A Member gets their rights and exact scripts.
๐ก You can switch roles anytime โ use the sidebar buttons or the ๐ช Chair / ๐ Member pills directly in the chat bar at the bottom of the screen.
You don't need to know the RONR section number or the motion name. Just describe what's happening: "A member is demanding a vote right now and won't let me finish."
๐๏ธ Tap the microphone button in the chat bar to dictate your question hands-free โ useful when you're presiding and can't type.
The sidebar shows pre-built scenario chips for the most common situations โ "Someone raised a Point of Order," "A member made a motion," etc. Tap one to send it instantly. Great for getting started fast or when you don't have time to type.
Parlia gives you the exact words to say, the RONR rule it's based on, and what to do if someone pushes back. The whole answer usually arrives in under 10 seconds.
After any answer, tap "Plain English" to get a jargon-free explanation. Great for sharing with someone who doesn't know parliamentary procedure.
Tap "Copy" to copy the full answer to your clipboard. Paste it into a text, email, or notes app instantly.
Generate a professional image of any ruling โ complete with the RONR citation. Screen-share it in Zoom, send it in a group chat, or save it as proof.
After the meeting, turn your rough notes into properly formatted RONR minutes. Toggle "Minutes Mode" in the sidebar, fill in meeting details, enter your notes, and tap Generate.
Upload bylaws or standing rules for any organization you work with โ label each one by org name. A toggle above the chat lets you switch which org's bylaws are active, or turn them off entirely for general RONR guidance. Perfect for parliamentarians who serve multiple organizations.
Someone claims "we've always done it this way." Enter the claimed precedent and Parlia tells you whether it's valid under RONR โ with exact language to challenge it if not.
Someone quotes an RONR section at you. Enter the section number and the claim โ Parlia pulls the actual text from RONR 12th Edition, tells you exactly what that section covers and what it means in plain English, whether the claim was correct, what to say right now, and generates a shareable Ruling Card.
Received a written parliamentary ruling or opinion letter? Upload the file (PDF, Word, or txt) or paste the text โ Parlia analyzes whether it's correct under RONR, cross-references your bylaws, and generates a complete ready-to-send response: thank-you if correct, clarification if partial, or formal rebuttal with RONR citations if wrong.
A built-in parliamentary quick-reference guide. Common motions, scripts, and rules at a glance โ no scrolling through a 700-page manual.
Spaces are named workspaces โ one per organization you serve. When a Space is active, Parlia automatically uses that organization's documents and saved web links in every answer. Available on Officer and Presiding plans (2 or 4 spaces).
Parlia cites the specific RONR 12th Edition section for every answer so you can verify it. It's designed to be accurate, but parliamentary procedure can depend on your organization's specific bylaws โ always check them too, especially with Rules Shield.
Parlia will let you know when you're getting close. You can add a Question Boost from the pricing page โ it works instantly with no subscription needed. Officer plan gets 100 questions/month which is far more than any single meeting would use.
Parlia will show an error message if a question fails. Just try again โ it usually resolves in seconds. Keep the tab open the whole meeting so you stay logged in.
Yes โ it works on any device with a browser. iPhone, Android, iPad, laptop, desktop. No app to install. Just go to parliapro.com and sign in.
That's entirely up to you. Many members use it discreetly on their phone. Some chairs use it openly as a parliamentary reference tool, which is completely legitimate โ even professional parliamentarians reference RONR during meetings.
In the sidebar, tap "Minutes Mode: OFF" to toggle it on. Fill in the meeting details (organization, date, presiding officer, secretary). Then type or dictate your rough notes into the notepad. During the meeting, use the Log Motion button to instantly record any motion made โ it adds it to your notes in the correct RONR format. Tap "Generate Minutes" and Parlia will produce properly formatted RONR minutes you can copy, download, or save.
Use the Download button below the chat input to save a PDF transcript of your current conversation at any time. Your current session is also automatically restored if you close and reopen the tab.
