A practical functional tool that is constantly evolving

I use Miro with my colleagues every time we need to share thoughts, build creative maps, make retrospective about our design projects (for example, creation of an application, starting from the brainstorming till the first concept). We also use it to organize benchmark research. Last year we start to generate images with AI for a speculative design project. Sometimes it is great to manage a workshop with our clients.

The creation of diagrams is certainly one of the features that makes Miro very effective as a workspace. Since last year, the AI function, both for text correction and image generation, has also been a useful tool for communicating a first draft of an idea or concept to the client. The ability to visualise an output, even if rudimentary, helps to understand what is being shown and speeds up approval times or feedback sharing.

Miro is always used during brainstorming and when creating an initial concept. The problem is that when using other tools for detailed design, we tend to work only in the very early stages on Miro and then move elsewhere. For workshops, however, it is still the platform we use most because it has everything we need to manage a group of people and proceed step by step during the work.
