In their own words
FigJam
FigJam is an online collaborative whiteboard for teams to develop ideas, make decisions, and plan work. It supports brainstorming, diagramming, meetings, sprint retrospectives, project planning, and roadmapping. Teams can choose from more than 300 ready-made templates or create their own. FigJam AI can generate templates and visuals, organize sticky notes by theme, and turn board output into action items. Collaboration features include audio conversations, live chat, comments, stamps, emotes, and Spotlight mode. People outside a team or company can join an open session for 24 hours without logging in. Integrations include Asana, Jira, GitHub, Slack, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, Notion, and Confluence. FigJam is available on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows, with an iPad app for gathering inspiration and exploring ideas. The free Starter plan is free and allows unlimited collaborators in three editable files. Paid plans start at $3 a month for a Professional Collab seat.
Ziteboard
Ziteboard is a web-based whiteboard for real-time collaboration and permanent, shareable board management.

Google Drive and Dropbox resources can be inserted, and a WordPress plugin embeds boards. The Starter plan costs nothing, billed forever, with three owned boards, unlimited shared boards and collaborators, limited traffic, three basic colours, low-resolution image import and first-page PDF import. One Week Pro costs $5, paid once; Monthly Pro costs $9 a month; Annual Pro costs $85 a year. Platforms include Android, extension, iOS, macOS, web and Windows.
