SAN FRANCISCO & AMSTERDAM--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Miro®, the visual workspace for innovation, today launched the Intelligent Canvas. For more than a decade, Miro has pioneered the visual collaboration industry, staying true to its mission to bring teams together to create the next big thing. Now the company is unveiling a new approach for its more than 70M users and 230,000 organizations – a canvas where teams can manage the entire innovation lifecycle, from discovery to definition to delivery.
“True innovation requires cross-functional teams to focus on solving hard, complex problems. And innovation often stalls because it requires a lot of manual work across many different apps and tools,” said Jeff Chow, Miro CPTO. “Miro’s Intelligent Canvas is built to support business processes well beyond the brainstorming phase. It combines AI, composable workflows, and a more intuitive, interactive experience to drive higher team productivity. Miro’s canvas is a central place where teams can focus on making critical decisions, accelerating their ability to bring new products and services to market faster than their competitors.”
"The ability to easily translate insights and decisions from our discovery activities to delivery tasks directly in Miro will help us speed our velocity – not only by breaking silos between Miro and other tools, but also by keeping us all aligned on sprint priorities,” said Sandrine Veillet, WebMD Vice President of Global Product.
Teams using Miro’s Intelligent Canvas now have unique advantages with:
-
AI across every stage of the innovation lifecycle. The Intelligent Canvas is powered by Miro AI to help teams complete the tedious and time consuming work that slows down ideation and decision making. Miro AI features on the Intelligent Canvas include:
- AI Sidekicks: Use these AI-powered agents when domain experience is needed, or to boost diverse perspectives. Miro’s first Sidekicks will include the Product Leader, the Agile Coach, and the Product Marketer.
- Create with AI: Access AI directly in Miro’s core toolbar. Quickly create docs, user stories, diagrams, and more using your work on the canvas. AI prompts make it even easier.
- AI shortcuts: Quickly move from unstructured to structured work by creating product briefs, user stories, diagrams and more with AI, leveraging the work and ideas on the Miro canvas as the prompt. AI shortcuts also make it even easier and quicker to automate creation with AI by placing a button on the canvas or in a template to accelerate workflows.
-
Upgraded canvas experience for easier teamwork. Miro’s user experience becomes simpler and more engaging while providing focused ways of working and more context for teams that work on projects together in Miro. Key features include:
- Diagramming mode: Users who are doing advanced diagrams and deep work in Miro now have an experience that adapts to the task at hand with only the tools they need.
- Spaces: Now there’s a collaborative home for teamwork, projects, and documents to stay aligned and overcome the frustration of scattered projects. It allows teams to organize Miro boards and third party documents into team spaces and projects, creating one central hub that’s easily accessible from any Miro board.
-
Composable workflows for unparalleled flexibility. Miro’s new Canvas SDK allows teams to create custom workflows for all stages of the innovation process. Teams can eliminate tab switching, collaborate more deeply, and make decisions faster by using workflows that include:
