Cardsmith helps you solve complex problems without complex software.

Collaborate from anywhere, anytime.

Everyone on the team can share ideas, anytime from anywhere in the world with a tool that is instantly familiar. With real-time collaboration, all changes are immediately seen by the team.

Without having to invest time learning cumbersome software, Cardsmith allows your remote or hybrid team stay inclusive – allowing everyone to share their ideas.​

Flow from ideas to action.

Immediately after brainstorming the team can move to organizing their ideas or go straight to creating a plan. The building blocks are in place to craft the best visual framework for the work at hand. That might be a Kanban board, a scrum board, a monthly or quarterly plan, or a project overview board.

Add in complexity only as needed.

Cards are at the heart of Cardsmith. Customize cards to track what your team cares about: add text, lists, images, and links to any card. You can use color and icons to communicate status or excitement about an idea or issue.

Data rich cards can be reused, exported, copied to other boards. Your team doesn’t have to leave their great ideas behind, which saves time and money. Reuse what works and archive what doesn’t.
