9 Best Online Whiteboards of 2026

Miro is the broadest whiteboard here for teams that facilitate often. The free plan lets you create unlimited boards, but only the three most recent stay editable, so most teams move to Starter at $8 per member per month billed yearly. Starter adds unlimited private boards, visitor editing for people without an account, high-resolution exports and the facilitation set that workshops rely on: timer, voting, private mode and notes. Business, at $20 per member, adds unlimited guests, private workspaces for each team or client, and engagement activities such as polls, 2x2 matrices and scales, with AI to group the answers. The canvas also holds docs, tables, timelines, Kanban boards and slides, which helps when a workshop turns into a plan. The trade-off is depth: new participants can feel lost in a large board, and AI features draw on a monthly credit allowance of 25 credits per member on Starter.

FigJam is the whiteboard inside Figma, and it is included with all seats on every plan. Teams that only need the whiteboard can buy a Collab seat, which Figma lists at $3 per month on Professional and $5 on Organization and Enterprise, with full access to FigJam, Figma Slides, Figma Buzz and Figma Specs plus view and comment access to design files. That makes it the cheapest paid seat on this list. For workshops, FigJam offers a shared timer, voting, stamps, stickers, emotes and a music player, and open sessions let anyone join a file for 24 hours after logging in. AI can summarize stickies, sort them into groups and generate templates for syncs and brainstorms, and audio conversations let a group talk inside the file. Diagramming tools, tables and code blocks help product and engineering teams. It has fewer formal workshop activities than Miro or Mural, and the seat-based Figma pricing page takes a moment to read.

Mural is designed around facilitated sessions rather than a general canvas. The free plan covers unlimited members and all visual collaboration tools, but only 3 murals can be edited at a time and visitors can only view. Team+ costs $9.99 per member per month billed annually or $12 monthly, and adds unlimited editable murals, visitors with editing rights, private rooms, Mural AI and basic integrations with Zoom and Webex. Business, at $17.99 per member billed annually, adds SAML single sign-on, unlimited external users, advanced integrations such as Azure, GitHub and Okta, payment by invoice, and LUMA frameworks for human-centered design methods. More than 250 expert templates cover retros, planning and ideation, and integrations reach Microsoft Teams, Jira Cloud, Google Workspace and Slack. Mural is a strong fit for workshop-heavy teams, though Miro offers more formats on one canvas and FigJam is cheaper per seat.

Lucidspark is the whiteboard half of Lucid's suite, and it shines when a brainstorm needs to become a structured diagram. The free plan includes 3 editable boards, freehand drawing, commenting, emoji reactions, basic visual activities, presentation mode and Lucid AI. Individual, at $9 per month billed yearly, removes the board limit and adds premium visual activities and 1 GB of storage. Teams should look at Team, $10 per user per month billed yearly, which adds the facilitator tools: voting, timer, laser pointer, Call others to me, guest collaborators, collaborator colors and revision history, plus support for touchscreen whiteboards. Enterprise adds breakout boards, team hubs, SAML authentication and Lucidchart for intelligent diagramming. Prices are shown before VAT and a free trial lasts seven days. The Team plan is good value for workshops, though breakout groups, often needed in large sessions, sit on the sales-led tier.

Canva Whiteboards are part of Canva rather than a separate product, and they are free and unlimited, with unlimited space on each board. Collaboration is real time with colored cursors, and Canva says people can join even if they do not have a Canva account, which helps with clients and students. Workshop features include timers with music, comments, sticky notes with reactions and one-click sorting of ideas. Diagrams use customizable shapes and automatic connectors, and the full Canva template and content library is available. The most useful link is to the rest of Canva: a whiteboard can be converted into a presentation or doc, and any presentation slide can expand into a whiteboard. Paid plans are about design rather than whiteboards: Pro costs US$144 a year for one person and Business US$250 a year per person with team admin tools. Canva lacks the structured facilitation tools of Miro, Mural or Lucidspark.

Excalidraw+ is the paid, hosted version of Excalidraw, the open-source whiteboard known for its hand-drawn look. The free version gives you the full editor, one infinite scene, unlimited collaborators, 10 generative AI requests a day, PNG and SVG export, and end-to-end encryption locally in your browser. Plus costs $6 a month per user with annual billing, which Excalidraw says saves 14 percent, and comes with a 14-day free trial. It adds unlimited scenes and folders saved to the cloud, access management with edit and view rights, read-only links and embeds, comments, presentations, PDF and PPTX export of frames, and voice hangouts with screensharing so a group can talk while drawing. Plus also includes 100 AI requests a day or your own key, a public beta MCP and REST API, and SOC 2 Type 2. It is fast and calm to use, but it is a sketching tool: there are no voting, timer or workshop templates in its feature list.

Whimsical combines boards and docs, so a team can brainstorm on a board and write the resulting spec next to it. Pricing is per editor and viewers are always free, which suits teams where a few people build boards and many look at them. The free plan is meant for evaluation: you can create up to 50 board objects and 50 doc blocks a month, exports carry a watermark and version history covers 7 days. Pro costs $10 per editor per month with annual billing, which Whimsical says saves 17 percent, and removes those limits while adding 90-day history and password-protected files. Business, at $20 per editor, adds private teams, SAML single sign-on, SCIM and unlimited history. Voting and a timer are included on every plan, guests are unlimited, and Slack and GitHub integrations come standard. Whimsical is clean and quick, but it has fewer workshop activities and templates than the larger whiteboards.

Conceptboard is a whiteboard aimed at European companies and public bodies that care where their data lives. It runs in data centers in Germany, Advanced customers can choose optional IONOS or StackIT hosting, and special plans offer data centers in a region of your choice, dedicated single-tenant hosting or on-premises hosting. The Starter plan, for individuals and very small teams, includes unlimited boards, a pre-built template library, up to 5 active projects, facilitator tools and 5 GB of storage, with monthly or yearly billing from one user. Advanced adds team templates, unlimited projects, board history, an approval process, custom branding and 1 TB of storage. Corporate and Government adds single sign-on, audit logs and priority support. A free plan exists and paid plans include a 30-day trial. Prices on the page are in euros, so we have not confirmed a USD price, and its feature set for workshops is smaller than Miro or Mural.

Klaxoon, now branded Klaxoon by Wrike, focuses on meetings and training sessions rather than open-ended canvases. Its whiteboard supports presentations, navigation by zones, dot voting, likes and a stopwatch and timer, and it adds interactive questions such as voting, evaluation and word clouds. A Quiz feature offers 9 types of interactive questions, and engagement reports show the number of contributors, participation rate and an engagement score in real time. AI can summarize ideas, group them by topic, translate into more than 100 languages and draft action plans. The free plan limits sessions to 5 participants. Starter costs $24.90 per host per month billed annually for up to 4 Pros, with 20 participants who edit for free, more than 200 templates and integrations with Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, Wrike and Jira. Enterprise starts at 5 Pros and allows unlimited participants up to 1,000 concurrent users, plus SSO. It is pricier per host than the rest of this list.
