Miro
4.5
Miro is the online whiteboard most teams already use for workshops and planning, now with AI that generates diagrams, clusters sticky notes, summarises a board and turns a screenshot into an editable prototype. The AI matters less as a feature than as a way to cut the admin that follows every workshop.

What it is good for
- Remote workshops and retrospectives that produce hundreds of notes
- Clustering and summarising research findings
- Diagramming a system or a flow collaboratively
- Turning a sketch or screenshot into something clickable
Strengths and trade-offs
Strengths
- Clustering and summarising removes the worst post-workshop admin
- Diagram generation from a prompt, inside the board everyone is already in
- Japanese interface, SOC 2, enterprise contracting
- Free tier covers occasional use
Trade-offs
- Large boards get slow and hard to navigate
- AI features are tied to higher tiers and credits
- Teams that do not already live in Miro will not adopt it for the AI alone
Editors' review
Whiteboard AI that pays for itself in the hour after the workshop
The expensive part of a workshop is not the workshop. It is the person who afterwards reads four hundred sticky notes and writes up the themes. Miro's clustering and summarisation compresses that, and it happens where the notes already are.
Diagram generation and screenshot-to-prototype are useful in the same way: they shorten the gap between a discussion and an artefact that can be reviewed, without exporting to another tool.
It is not a reason to adopt Miro. If the team already works there, the AI is a strong addition on the higher tiers; if not, the board itself has to earn the seat first, and large boards do get sluggish.
Verdict
Clear value for teams already on Miro. Not a reason to switch whiteboards by itself.
