Raise your hand if you’re going on vacation this summer or just got back. Hopefully you raised your hand! June, July, August, and September are the most popular months to take time off. That makes sense; it’s summertime. We’re between our big projects and events. Our customers, clients, and coworkers are all taking time off. It’s the perfect time to step away from work.

On-premise, off-premise, or hybrid software deployments. There’s no shortage of options for companies and IT teams looking to create robust, secure, and scalable networks for their employees and end-users. But with more options comes more research and decision-making, as each choice comes with its own benefits and drawbacks that can impact everything from cost to performance and data security.

A windowless conference room with a dozen people elbow to elbow isn’t the best environment for innovation to thrive. Yet, that’s often where we expect productive work to take place. Many of the best thinkers work most efficiently in deep focus mode, but our modern work culture doesn’t protect that time and space.

AI is already changing how teams work. It can do things like automate manual tasks and find trends in large data sets, just to name a few. But when we talk about its features, most of what we talk about is how it manages our busy work and makes it more efficient. This lets teams focus on building the next big thing. In a sense, it’s like a really smart assistant who takes on the tasks you’ve outgrown. But when it comes to diagramming, especially here at Miro, AI takes on a new role.

With an updated canvas built to level-up your Miro experience, Intelligent Canvas is here to help teams get work done faster and more efficiently. The new Intelligent Canvas focuses on three key areas: Included as part of Intelligent Canvas are several new diagramming updates that will blow your current diagramming workflow out of the water. Think: less manual work, less hacking shapes, fewer complexities, faster creation, smoother experience. Sounds good? Let’s get into it.

As part of the new Intelligent Canvas, Miro users can now generate diagrams from text.

For a decade, CEOs have been consistently concerned that current business models are at risk, while their satisfaction with innovation performance has been low. This growing uncertainty reveals a stark disconnect between the urgent need for reinvention and the underwhelming results. Today, CEOs find themselves wrestling with a tumultuous economic and geopolitical landscape, while simultaneously racing to innovate with the help of new tech, like generative AI.

Way back in 2011, Miro changed the way people work together to build the next big thing by building our own big thing: The canvas. The canvas is an infinitely scrolling surface — a place as big as your imagination — that gives people the freedom to play, brainstorm, and create. The building blocks may have been simple, just a few sticky notes, shapes, and colors, but they inspired teams to dream and experiment together.

Would you rather look at a spreadsheet that has hundreds of rows of raw data? Or a simple and intuitive chart that pulls out and summarizes the key insights? For most people, the answer is a no-brainer: They’ll take the chart over the eye-glazing spreadsheet any day. That’s the power of data visualization.

In today’s fast-paced business environment, innovation is the key to staying ahead of the competition. But focusing solely on acceleration and growth isn’t the solution: As you add staff, partners, and tools, you may be taking on additional security and compliance risks, creating bottlenecks in your processes ultimately hindering your own path to success.
