What is it

What is a Corporate Minute Book?

A corporate minute book is the official record-keeping binder for your corporation. It contains every foundational legal document of your company — from the day it was incorporated to its current state. Think of it as your corporation's permanent legal biography.

Under Canadian corporate law — both the Canada Business Corporations Act (CBCA) and all provincial corporate statutes — every corporation is legally required to maintain a minute book at its registered office and make it available for inspection by shareholders, directors, and regulatory authorities.

Failing to maintain one doesn't just create legal risk — it can block your ability to get financing, sell your business, add shareholders, or file accurate tax returns.

Virtual minute book

The AI minute book generator, built for Canadian corporations

A virtual minute book is your corporation's official record book kept electronically instead of in a physical binder — legally equivalent under the Canada Business Corporations Act and every provincial statute. Our AI minute book generatorassembles the complete document set from your registry record so you don't manually retype anything: articles, by-laws, resolutions, registers, share certificates.

A free minute book pilot lets you try the whole thing for 30 days without paying anything. No credit card, no auto-renew. If the workspace doesn't fit how you already run compliance, you don't hear from us again. Start your pilot ↑

When you need it

Situations that require a current minute book

At Incorporation

Every corporation must establish its minute book at the time of incorporation. This is a legal requirement under federal and all provincial corporate statutes.

For Financing or Loans

Banks and lenders require a current, complete minute book before approving business loans, lines of credit, or mortgages.

Buying or Selling

Any share purchase or business sale triggers a due diligence review. The buyer's lawyer will examine every document in your minute book.

CRA Audit

The Canada Revenue Agency can request corporate records at any time. An incomplete minute book can result in reassessments and penalties.

Adding Shareholders

Issuing or transferring shares requires resolutions, updated registers, and new share certificates — all part of the minute book.

Annual Compliance

Directors' and shareholders' resolutions must be recorded every year. Many corporations accumulate years of gaps that need to be reconstructed.

Frequently asked

Common questions about the free pilot + AI generator

Is a virtual minute book legal in Canada?

Yes. The Canada Business Corporations Act and every provincial corporate statute permit electronic minute books, provided the records are organized, accessible, and can be produced in readable form for inspection at the registered office.

How does the free 30-day pilot work?

Search your Canadian corporation, enter your email, and within one business day you receive login access to a MinuteBook workspace with your complete minute book already generated. No credit card required. Cancel any time during the 30-day pilot.

What's the difference between the AI minute book generator and the done-for-you service?

The AI generator produces your full minute book automatically from your registry record — you self-serve inside the MinuteBook app. The done-for-you service (from $389 all-in) has a CRS specialist prepare, review, and deliver the minute book to your email, with human sign-off.

Do I need to be an Alberta corporation for the pilot?

The free pilot currently works fastest for Alberta corporations because our registry corpus is Alberta-first. Other provinces are supported via the done-for-you service — contact us to request early access to the pilot for your jurisdiction.
