It’s been a couple months since Miro’s acquisition of Freehand, and I want to give you an update on where we’re heading with the combination of Freehand and Miro. We started this journey last fall with a shared vision. We believe the power of visual collaboration goes far beyond just a digital whiteboard. We believe in the potential to truly transform how organizations work — unlocking new levels of team collaboration, productivity, and creativity.
Many of you might only know Miro as the visual collaboration workspace, but we also have a Developer Platform, an ecosystem of tools and services that supports and accelerates app development on top of Miro.
