Miro Interactive Demo
Explore a demo of Miro, an online collaborative whiteboarding platform designed to facilitate teamwork and creative collaboration among distributed teams.
What is Miro?
Miro is an online collaborative whiteboard platform that enables distributed teams to brainstorm, plan, design, and run workshops together in real-time. Founded in Perm, Russia in 2011 as RealtimeBoard and rebranded to Miro in 2019, the platform now serves over 60 million users at companies including Spotify, Cisco, and Deloitte.
The core product is an infinite canvas where teams can add sticky notes, shapes, images, text, diagrams, and widgets — then arrange them spatially to think and communicate visually. Miro's template library includes hundreds of pre-built frameworks for sprint planning, customer journey mapping, org charts, mind maps, and retrospectives.
Miro integrates deeply with the tools product and engineering teams already use: Jira, Confluence, Asana, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Figma, and more. Its Talktrack feature allows asynchronous voice and video walkthroughs of boards, making remote collaboration more personal.

Who is Miro most useful for?
Product and UX teams who need a shared space for user story mapping, wireframing, design sprints, and roadmap planning. Use Supademo to create interactive walkthroughs of how your team's Miro workflow is set up, helping new team members contribute to planning sessions from day one.
Agile and scrum teams running sprint ceremonies in a distributed environment. Embed a Supademo inside a Miro board to demonstrate a product feature to stakeholders during a sprint review — keeping demos and planning in the same visual space.
Consultants and facilitators running workshops for clients. Pair Supademo with Miro to pre-build interactive exercises where participants can explore a product demo as part of a discovery or alignment workshop.
Marketing and strategy teams doing competitive analysis, content mapping, and campaign planning. Use Supademo to document how your Miro workspace is organized and share it with stakeholders or new team members who need to navigate it effectively.
Looking for alternatives to Miro?
Here are four tools worth evaluating depending on your needs.
Figma's built-in whiteboard, tightly integrated with Figma design files. Better for design teams already using Figma. Miro has a much larger template library and feature set for cross-functional teams.
Stronger for technical diagrams like flowcharts, ERDs, and network diagrams. Less suited for free-form brainstorming and workshops. Miro is better for team collaboration; Lucidchart is better for precise diagrams.
A close Miro competitor with strong facilitation features and templates. Popular in enterprise design thinking and innovation contexts. Miro has broader integrations and a larger user base.
Canva's whiteboard feature is better for visually polished outputs. Miro is stronger for collaborative sessions, complex diagrams, and deep tool integrations.

Is Miro free?
Yes. Miro's free plan supports unlimited team members on up to 3 editable boards. Paid plans (Starter at $10/member/month) unlock unlimited boards, custom templates, and advanced integrations.

Yes. Miro has built-in retrospective templates (Start/Stop/Continue, 4 Ls, Mad Sad Glad, and more) with features like sticky note voting, timers, and real-time cursor visibility that make remote retros feel engaging.
Does Miro integrate with Jira?
Yes. Miro's Jira integration lets you create, view, and update Jira issues directly on your Miro board. This is particularly useful for sprint planning sessions where you're mapping user stories and moving tickets simultaneously.
Can I import from other tools into Miro?
Yes. Miro supports imports from Excel, CSV, Figma, Sketch, Confluence, Lucidchart, and other tools. You can also import images and PDFs directly onto the canvas.
Does Miro work offline?
Miro requires an internet connection for real-time collaboration. However, the desktop app caches recently accessed boards for viewing when offline. Editing requires connectivity.
How many people can collaborate on a Miro board simultaneously?
There's no hard limit on simultaneous users. Hundreds of people can collaborate on a single Miro board at once, which makes it popular for large-scale workshops, all-hands events, and training sessions.
Is Miro HIPAA or SOC 2 compliant?
Miro is SOC 2 Type II certified and offers GDPR-compliant data processing. HIPAA compliance is available on Enterprise plans with a signed BAA. Miro's data residency options include EU-based storage.
Can I export my Miro board?
Yes. Miro boards can be exported as PNG, JPG, PDF, or CSV (for structured data). You can also export specific frames or the entire board. Enterprise plans add more export formats and bulk export capabilities.
