An infinite canvas
for thinking

Messy in.
Diagram out.

07 · Word of mouth

People keep telling us
they're using it wrong.

They aren't.

We replaced Miro, Excalidraw and half a Notion page with one Neura board. Honestly didn't expect that.

The sketch-to-diagram tool is the only AI feature I've kept on after the trial.

09 · FAQ

Common questions.

How is Neura different from Excalidraw and Miro?

Excalidraw has the feel; Miro has the breadth. Neura is what you get when you keep the hand-drawn warmth, add real multiplayer, presets, AI, and exports, and put the whole thing under an MIT license.

Is the AI on by default?

No. It's a tool you reach for from the toolbar — never trained on your boards, never silently rewriting your work. You can disable it org-wide.

Can I self-host?

Yes — single binary or Docker. Postgres + S3-compatible storage and you're done. Team tier unlocks SSO and audit logs on your own infra.

What about offline?

Boards work fully offline in the browser via local-first sync. They reconcile when you come back online.

Do I own my work?

Always. Every board exports to SVG and to a portable .neura JSON. If we vanish tomorrow, your boards still open.

iPad / Apple Pencil?

First-class. Pressure, tilt, palm rejection, and Pencil double-tap shortcuts.
