All boards can host an incredible variety of objects, including basic shapes, images, text notes, and can be as large as users want them.

User Interface

Users can easily take full advantage of this productivity and brainstorming service by quickly learning to use its clean and user-friendly interface. The app makes it easy for everyone to navigate and access the various tools and features, all manageable either by directly clicking on on-screen objects or introducing new objects via the main hovering toolbar on the left side of the canvas area.



This toolbar hosts the main object selector tool and can manage text inputs, sticky notes, shapes, connection lines, free drawing tools, mind maps, tables, blocks, cards, and more.

The drag-and-drop functionality allows for effortless creation and organization of content on the board, with the ability to precisely organize elements into groups, assign them text descriptors, connect them with neighboring modules, and more. The interface is responsive and works well on both PC desktop screens and mobile touch-friendly devices, ensuring a seamless user experience both at home, school, work, or on the go.

The main PC dashboard primarily promotes recently used whiteboard projects and easy access to recommended templates. AI generation tool can be accessed via an easy-to-use “Generate” list of tools (Mind Map, Flowchart, Presentation, Code, Image, and Smart Q&A). The top right corner of the app features a streamlined set of collaboration tools, including a section for reactions, comments, voting, timer, and presentation tools.

At any time, users can generate brand new photos using the AI Assistant tool and integrate those elements into a whiteboard. The same can also be done with presentations, mind maps, and flowcharts.
