Online collaborative whiteboard for diagramming, planning, and mapping workflows on an infinite canvas.
Miro is an online collaborative whiteboard where teams map ideas, diagrams, and workflows on an infinite canvas. You drag sticky notes, shapes, connectors, and frames onto a shared board that multiple people can edit at the same time.
It is widely used for brainstorming, process mapping, flowcharts, and workshops, with a large template library and, more recently, AI features that can generate diagrams or summaries from a prompt.
Alec Saluga used a Miro board in Session 006 as the canvas to walk through his AI iMessage appointment-setter workflow, the same way Justin uses Figma to map his content engine. It is the visual layer for explaining a multi-step agent build to an audience: the trigger, the messages, and the tools attached at each step, laid out so people can follow the logic.
We reach for a whiteboard like Miro whenever an automation has more than two or three steps, because an agent workflow is far easier to design and explain as a diagram than as a wall of text. The board is not the automation, it is the plan you build the automation from. If you are mapping where an agent should trigger, what it should send, and which tools it calls, a shared canvas beats a doc.
Miro is for anyone who thinks better visually: teams running workshops, planning processes, or mapping how a system should work. For our use, it is the place to design an agent or automation before you build it. You do not need the full platform; a single board to lay out the steps is enough to make a complex workflow legible to yourself and to an audience.
