Whimsical: collaborative diagrams, wireframes and mind maps

Discover Whimsical, your team's visual workspace

Whimsical is a collaborative workspace that brings together flowcharts, wireframes, mind maps and documents to visualise and document your projects.

Documenting a billing process, mocking up an application before building it, framing a product brainstorm: the whole team works on the same canvas, in real time, and ideas stop getting lost between tools.

Whimsical is built around four functional pillars:

Each format serves a specific moment in a project's life.

1. Flowcharts: your processes in black and white

A clear diagram beats a long explanation in a meeting.

  • Model your business processes step by step
  • Document your products' user journeys
  • Align teams around a shared representation
  • Save time with smart shapes and connectors

2. Wireframes: mock up before you build

Validate an interface before investing in its development.

  • Assemble interface mockups from a component library
  • Test several directions before writing a single line of code
  • Iterate quickly on your team's feedback
  • Hand developers clear, unambiguous mockups

3. Mind maps: give your ideas a structure

From messy brainstorm to structured action plan.

  • Run a brainstorm without losing a single idea
  • Break a complex topic into readable branches
  • Reorganise the map from the keyboard without breaking the structure
  • Turn the thinking into an action plan
  • Discover the service here

4. Docs and collaboration: thinking and decisions in one place

Your diagrams live inside the documents that explain them.

  • Write documents that embed your diagrams directly
  • Collaborate in real time with the whole team
  • Comment to settle open questions
  • Share your work with a simple link
