Miro API
Miro's REST API v2 is fully public with OAuth 2.0, webhooks, SCIM provisioning, and an in-board Apps SDK. Access is self-serve and free with any paid plan, though SCIM and audit logs are Enterprise-gated. The credit-based cap of 100,000 per minute is fixed and cannot be raised.

Miro scores A on the API Report Card. Miro's REST API v2 is fully public with OAuth 2.0, webhooks, SCIM provisioning, and an in-board Apps SDK. Access is self-serve and free with any paid plan, though SCIM and audit logs are Enterprise-gated. The credit-based cap of 100,000 per minute is fixed and cannot be raised.
Miro has a workable official integration path. Most engineering teams can build against it directly. Open API: self-serve, documented, with SDKs
Miro is the AI-powered visual collaboration platform / 'Intelligent Canvas' from Miro (RealtimeBoard, Inc.), founded in 2011 by Andrey Khusid and Oleg Shardin, headquartered in Amsterdam and San Francisco.
Vertical: misc, horizontal visual collaboration / online whiteboarding. Not vertical SaaS in any Supergood-named vertical. Workshops & facilitation: retros, sprint planning, design sprints, kickoffs, OKR planning, premortems (with Spotlight + voting + timers).
Very high within its category, Miro is the category leader in visual collaboration / online whiteboarding. Reach: 100M+ users, 250,000+ paying companies, used at 99% of the Fortune 100 per miro.com.
Data that flows through / lives inside Miro on behalf of customer organizations: Board contents: sticky notes (text, color, author, position), shapes, connectors, text blocks, freehand drawings, frames, sections, mind maps, tables, kanban cards, embedded media (images, GIFs, video, audio clips, documents, code blocks), app cards from native integrations.
Founded 2011 (as RealtimeBoard); rebranded to Miro in 2019. Modern web architecture, multiplayer CRDT-style sync, WebGL/Canvas rendering, real-time presence and cursors, native desktop (macOS/Windows) + iPad + Android apps.
Global rate limit (100,000 credits/min) is hard-capped and cannot be raised even on Enterprise, bulk migrations / backups throttle. List Widgets / List Items endpoint historically capped at 1,000 widgets per board, paginating very large boards is awkward and required workarounds for ~9 months without a clear fix. Full sourced list under Sources below.
Common alternatives include Mural, FigJam (Figma), Lucidspark (Lucid Software), Microsoft Whiteboard, Whimsical, Conceptboard. Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
