Miro

Miro is a visual collaboration platform built around an infinite online whiteboard, used by product, engineering, and design teams to plan, diagram, and run workshops together in real time. It suits any team that needs a shared space to sketch ideas, map processes, or run remote brainstorming sessions, and its AI features (branded Miro AI) are aimed at teams that also want to connect the canvas to coding and research tools like Claude or Cursor.

What does Miro do?

Miro gives teams a single canvas where sticky notes, diagrams, documents, tables, kanban boards, and slides can all live side by side. Multiple people can edit the same board at once, which makes it a common stand-in for in-person whiteboarding during remote meetings, sprint planning, and workshops.

Miro AI extends the canvas with generative features: it can turn rough notes into structured diagrams or tables, summarize a cluttered board, and cluster sticky notes into themes. Miro also runs an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, so tools like Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor can read from and write to a board directly, letting a team turn AI research output into a shared visual plan without manual copy-pasting.

Core features

• An infinite multiplayer canvas that supports sticky notes, shapes, freehand drawing, and embedded files.
• Over 7,000 templates covering retrospectives, roadmaps, customer journey maps, and org charts.
• Structured formats including Docs, Tables, Kanban boards, Timelines, and Slides built directly on the canvas.
• Miro AI for generating diagrams, tables, and summaries from existing board content.
• An MCP server that connects Miro to AI coding tools so board content and generated code can flow both ways.
• Facilitation tools such as a timer, voting, and private mode for running live workshops.
• Two-way integrations with Jira, Asana, Linear, and Azure DevOps on paid plans, keeping sprint data in sync.
• Enterprise-grade security including SSO, audit logs, and regional data hosting in the EU, US, Australia, and Japan.

Use cases

Product teams use Miro to run sprint planning and retrospectives without needing everyone in the same room, dragging sticky notes into columns and voting on priorities live. Design teams use it for wireframing and customer journey mapping before work moves into a dedicated design tool, and engineering teams use its diagramming shapes to map technical systems, cloud infrastructure, and process flows.

• Running a remote workshop with polls, a shared timer, and breakout areas of the board for small groups.
• Turning a Claude or ChatGPT research session into a shared board the whole team can review and build on.
• Mapping a roadmap or backlog with two-way sync back to Jira or Asana so updates stay current in both places.
