An AI-powered visual workspace where teams think, plan, and build together
An infinite multiplayer board where cursors, comments, and live editing let remote and hybrid teams work in the same space simultaneously.
Docs, Tables, Slides, Kanban, and Timelines live alongside freeform drawing so a workshop can turn directly into a structured plan.
Generate diagrams, tables, and summaries, remove image backgrounds, and connect external AI assistants through the MCP server.
6,000-7,000+ templates for brainstorming, workshops, roadmapping, and process mapping give teams a running start.
AI-native workspace for literature reviews and auditable systematic reviews
Ask a research question in plain language and get a synthesized answer drawn from PubMed, arXiv, OpenAlex and Semantic Scholar, with every claim linked to its source paper.
Run PRISMA-style reviews with a predefined protocol, recorded screening decisions, dual independent reviewers and a conflict resolver, and a PRISMA diagram generated from your actual counts.
Import from Zotero or Mendeley, add papers by DOI, and get metadata and open-access PDFs fetched automatically, with annotations and notes that feed every other workflow.
Define custom extraction columns and have AI fill them across many papers, with each value linking back to the sentence it came from, exportable to CSV or Excel.
