Miro

AI-powered visual collaboration canvas for product and design teams

Miro is a design tools tool for Small businesses and Enterprise, offered as freemium ($10/mo). Based in United States, founded in 2011. Popular alternatives include Lucidchart, Xmind, Magnific (formerly Freepik).

About Miro

Miro is an online visual workspace where teams brainstorm, map processes, plan sprints and run workshops on an infinite canvas. It was founded in 2011 as RealtimeBoard by Andrey Khusid and Oleg Shardin, renamed Miro in 2019, and has grown into the default whiteboard at many large companies, with main offices in San Francisco and Amsterdam.

Beyond sticky notes, the canvas holds docs, tables, slides, kanban boards, diagrams with 4,700+ shapes on paid plans, timers and voting for workshops, and interactive prototypes. The AI layer has grown fast: Sidekicks are agents that work with your team's board context, Flows chain multi-step AI workflows into reusable templates, generators produce diagrams, mind maps and wireframes, and an MCP server lets coding agents read boards. There are 250+ integrations, with two-way Jira, Asana and Azure DevOps sync on higher tiers. The Free plan allows three editable boards; Starter and Business are per member, and Enterprise starts at 30 members.

Miro fits product, design, agile and consulting teams that collaborate visually across time zones. FigJam is cheaper for teams already in Figma, Canva's whiteboards suit marketers, and Mural targets facilitated enterprise workshops. Heavy boards can get slow on older laptops, and AI credits are limited per member.

Buying tip: in early 2026 Miro raised Business from $16 to $20 per member per month on annual billing ($25 monthly), so lock in annual pricing and check whether Starter's private boards and visitor editing already cover your needs.
