Initializing secure environment…
Open a link and draw together in real time. Strokes, shapes, text and sticky notes are broadcast peer to peer as you make them, with each participant's cursor visible, and the board state is shared rather than stored — so it works with no account, no server and no sign-up. Use it for a diagram, a brainstorm, a layout sketch or a retrospective, then export the board as an image or a PDF. Free, no limits, nothing uploaded.
A real-time collaborative whiteboard — peer-to-peer, no server, no account. Share a link and draw together instantly, with live cursors and sticky notes. Export to PNG or PDF. Free, no sign-up, works in any browser.
The blocker in most online whiteboards is not the drawing, it is the account. Send a link, everyone joins, and a fifteen-minute session actually happens rather than stalling while four people create accounts. For a session that ends when the session ends, that is the whole product.
Draw it, export as PNG or PDF, and it is a file that goes into a document. This is the natural pairing with the PDF tools: sketch on the board, export, and drop the image into a proposal with Images to PDF or into a slide. The board is the thinking; the file is the artefact.
A board is a live surface that disappears when the participants leave, and a document is a file that persists. Using a board to hold something that has to last is the wrong tool — save the board as a PDF and work with that. Knowing which of the two you are making saves a genuine loss later in the day.
If a participant is on a corporate or campus network, a direct connection may be blocked, and they will not be able to join at all. Find out before the session rather than during it — try the link from that network first. There is no browser-side fix for a network policy, and pretending otherwise would waste everyone's time.
No. The board is a peer-to-peer broadcast between the open tabs, and the state lives in the participants' browsers. There is no board stored anywhere, which is the source of both the privacy and the limitation: if everyone leaves, the board is gone. Export before that happens.
The board is no longer available, because it was never stored. Export the board as a PNG or a PDF before the last person closes the tab. This is the honest trade for having no server, and it is a trade worth making for a brainstorming session and a bad one for a design document that needs to persist.
Several, comfortably. Each additional participant adds a connection and a cursor to keep in step, and a dozen is unremarkable while twenty is where it starts to feel busy. There is no artificial cap, and no per-seat pricing either.
No, and that is the same constraint as any direct-connection tool. A restrictive network prevents the two browsers from connecting, and the participant sees a clear error rather than a silent failure. A whiteboard that needs a server to be usable is a different product with a different set of trade-offs.
Yes, with the export. Draw it, export to PNG or PDF, and the diagram is a file you own. What you cannot do is come back to it next week and find the board as you left it — that requires storage, and storage requires a server.
Yes, with a finger for drawing, and it is genuinely usable as a phone whiteboarding surface. A stylus gives you much better line quality than a fingertip, and a pinch gesture handles zoom. The layout adapts to a small screen rather than being a squeezed desktop version.
Freehand pen with colour and width, straight lines and shapes, arrows, text, sticky notes, and eraser. That is the set a discussion actually needs — a diagram sketched while people talk — rather than a design tool that would be the wrong thing for the job.
Yes. No account, no seat limit, no watermark, no upload and no server. The board is free because there is nothing to pay for.
More collaborate & share — all free, no upload.
