Full Answer

Flow from ideas to action

Immediately after brainstorming the team can move to organizing their ideas or go straight to creating a plan. The building blocks are in place to craft the best visual framework for the work at hand. That might be a Kanban board, a scrum board, a monthly or quarterly plan, or a project overview board.

Collaborate from anywhere, anytime

Everyone on the team can share ideas, anytime from anywhere in the world with a tool that is instantly familiar. With real-time collaboration, all changes are immediately seen by the team.

Finally, a tool as nimble as your team

We’ve translated the best of sticky notes – their familiarity, immediacy, versatility – to an online environment. Your team no longer needs to waste time wrestling with a cumbersome tool, so they can focus on the work that they want to do.

Quickly move from the big picture to the fine details

Zoom out to get an overview. Capture at a glance what you need to know. Open a card to get the specifics. Change from freeform view to grid view. Cardsmith works the way you think.

Add in complexity only as needed

Cards are at the heart of Cardsmith. Customize cards to track what your team cares about: add text, lists, images, and links to any card. You can use color and icons to communicate status or excitement about an idea or issue.
