About Miro
What is Miro (2026 update)
Miro is a cloud-based visual collaboration platform, a digital whiteboard and workspace where teams brainstorm, plan projects, and diagram workflows together in real time. It sits in the art and creative design software category alongside diagramming and whiteboarding tools, though its scope has grown to cover project management, prototyping, and now AI-assisted work.
What is new in 2026
The biggest change in 2026 is Miro AI Workflows, an enterprise capability launched in January 2026 that bundles three pieces: Flows, Sidekicks, and Visual Context Processing. Flows let you turn a repeating task, such as a weekly standup, into a saved multi step AI sequence that pulls ticket updates from Jira, summarizes a Slack channel, builds a board, and posts a recap back to Slack. Sidekicks are conversational AI agents that ask clarifying questions, propose a step by step plan, and then build the actual deliverable, docs, diagrams, kanbans, or timelines, directly on the canvas, pulling context from connected tools like Jira, Slack, GitHub, and Confluence. Visual Context Processing lets the AI read existing board content as context without you retyping it.
Miro also added native connectors so work created in ChatGPT, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot can surface on a shared Miro canvas, plus new integrations with Granola and expanded Atlassian connections. On the plan side, Miro Prototypes, previously a paid add-on, moved into the Business plan as of June 29, 2026, and Miro Engage was folded into Business as well.
Key features
- Infinite canvas whiteboard with sticky notes, shapes, freehand drawing, and 7,000-plus templates
- Miro Assist AI for diagram generation, summarizing sticky notes, and generating images on the board
- Sidekicks, task specific AI agents that build a deliverable on request
- Flows, reusable automated AI workflows tied to canvas or calendar events
- Two way integrations with Jira, Asana, Linear, ClickUp, Slack, and GitHub
- Interactive prototyping tools for early stage product design
- Data tables for structured project and roadmap tracking
- Model Context Protocol (MCP) support, with daily call limits that scale by plan

Who should use it
Miro fits product, design, and cross functional teams that run workshops, sprint planning, or discovery sessions and want one shared visual space instead of scattered docs and slides. Teams already living in Jira, Slack, or GitHub get the most out of Sidekicks and Flows, since those features pull real context automatically instead of relying on manual notes. Enterprises with governance requirements benefit from the Enterprise tier’s SCIM provisioning and regional hosting options. Solo users or very small teams that only need occasional diagramming may find the free plan’s 3-board limit restrictive once they run more than one project.
Limitations and alternatives
The AI credit system is metered by plan, so heavy Sidekick or Flow usage on Starter or Business can run out before the month ends, and adding more credits means either upgrading or buying an add-on, check the official site for current add-on pricing. The free plan’s 3-board cap is tight for anyone managing more than one active project at a time. If Miro’s pricing or AI credit limits do not fit your team, real alternatives worth comparing include FigJam, Figma’s whiteboard that integrates tightly with Figma design files, Mural, which is strong in structured facilitation and enterprise workshop templates, and Lucidspark, part of the Lucid suite that pairs well with Lucidchart diagramming. Each of these has its own AI features and pricing, so compare current plans directly before switching.
