ABOUT

What is Miro?

Miro is a digital whiteboard platform designed for collaborative workshops, brainstorming sessions and diagramming across distributed teams. It provides an infinite canvas with sticky notes, shapes, connectors and templates for common frameworks like retrospectives and user story mapping. Miro competes with FigJam, Excalidraw and MURAL as a visual collaboration layer for remote work.
