Miro

I had the opportunity to attend Miro’s Canvas 26 Conference in Sydney this week, and it left a strong impression on me. From the opening keynote, it was clear that [Miro](https://www.linkedin.com/company/mirohq) is deeply intentional about how they approach their product and the challenges they aim to solve. There’s a real focus on leveraging AI not just for novelty but to meaningfully improve collaboration and address the biggest problems teams face today. The themes “nobody builds anything great alone” and “the best strategy goes nowhere if your team is going in different directions” really captured the ethos and values that guided Miro’s evolution. Collaboration is the foundation of how great teams work together. Having used Miro a few years ago, I was impressed by how dramatically it has evolved. It now feels like the most comprehensive collaborative workspace I’ve seen, from diagramming and prototyping to recording video walkthroughs, extracting insights from research, and integrating with Slack and a broad range of documentation tools through new connectors. Peter Bradd, Chief Evangelist for APAC, highlighted a critical gap: there’s no true shared surface where all the work done by people and AI agents converges. Miro is aiming to be that connective canvas, bringing teams and their AI copilots together to collaborate in real time, aligned and in sync. Custom widgets (which function like mini-apps), dynamic living roadmaps, and the ability to place fully interactive HTML prototypes directly on the canvas and edit or iterate on them are just a few of the compelling new features. Features like Miro Sidekicks, voice prompts built with ElevenLabs and OpenAI, and a focus on privacy and security (with no board content used to train models) make Miro a truly impressive collaborative canvas where teams and their AI tools work together in one shared space. I cannot wait to dig back into Miro! <https://miro.pxf.io/MK2mb3> [#Canvas26](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/canvas26) [#MiroPartner](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/miropartner) [#Sponsored](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/sponsored)
