Mural

Mural is a visual collaboration platform designed for teams to brainstorm, plan, and solve problems together using an infinite digital canvas. The platform provides sticky notes, diagrams, frameworks, flowcharts, mind maps, and drawing tools that enable distributed teams to collaborate in real-time as if they were in the same room with a physical whiteboard. Mural stands out from basic whiteboard tools through its extensive template library with over 400 pre-built frameworks for design thinking, agile ceremonies, strategy workshops, and team retrospectives. Facilitators can use features like voting, timers, private mode for independent ideation before group sharing, and guided facilitation tools that structure collaborative sessions for productive outcomes. The platform supports asynchronous collaboration where team members contribute at different times, with commenting, tagging, and notification features that keep everyone connected. Mural integrates deeply with Microsoft Teams, Slack, Jira, Asana, and other enterprise tools, embedding visual collaboration directly into existing workflows. For enterprise customers, Mural provides SSO, SCIM provisioning, data residency options, and admin controls for managing workspaces at scale. The platform has become particularly popular for design sprints, product discovery workshops, OKR planning sessions, and any collaborative process that benefits from visual thinking. With the shift to hybrid work, Mural has established itself as essential infrastructure for teams that need the energy and creativity of in-person workshops in a distributed environment.
