Brainstorm on a whiteboard

An infinite canvas per project — sticky notes, shapes, connectors and freehand — plus your real tasks as live cards you can drag around.

1

Create a whiteboard

Open a project, expand Whiteboards in the sidebar, and click the +. Each project can have as many boards as you like, and your work saves automatically.
2

Move around the canvas

Drag empty space to pan and scroll to zoom toward the cursor. Use the minimap (bottom-right) to jump around, Fit to frame everything, and Reset to return to 100%.
3

Add notes, shapes, and more

Use the Insert tools: notes, shapes, titled sections, freehand Pen, images, and stamps — or start from a template (Kanban, Mind Map, Retrospective, Flowchart). Double-click empty canvas to drop a new item, and double-click an item to edit its text.
4

Connect and arrange

Hover an item to reveal four edge dots, then drag from one to another item to draw a connector that re-routes itself as things move. Select several items to align, distribute, group (Ctrl+G), or change their layering.
5

Drop real tasks onto the board

Click + Task to search your tasks — this project or all projects — and click one to drop it on the canvas as a card. It looks like the card on your Kanban board and carries the same live detail: status, priority, due date, tags, assignees and progress. Because the whiteboard and the task tracker are the same app, there's nothing to connect and nothing to sync: reopen the board and every card is up to date. Double-click a card to open the task, and delete a card whenever you like — it never touches the task itself.
6

Export or pin it

Use Export to save a PNG or SVG — the whole board, or just your selection. Pin a whiteboard to your dashboard so it's always one click away.
