About FigJam

Best for cross-functional teams needing lightweight visual collaboration.

FigJam is an online collaborative whiteboard tool built by Figma that lets teams brainstorm, diagram, and plan together in real time. It offers sticky notes, drawing tools, stamps, emoji reactions, and pre-built templates to make visual collaboration feel lightweight and fun. Unlike heavier whiteboarding tools, FigJam keeps things simple and accessible, making it easy for non-designers to jump in without a learning curve.
