What it does
Draft.io is a collaborative visual workspace for workshops, information mapping, decision-making, and project management. The product page describes flexible cards, voting sessions, anonymous participation modes, Jira synchronization, and sharing with collaborators. Its Free plan provides unlimited editable drafts and participants, with a 500-object allowance across drafts.
Draft.io uses movable cards and visual groupings to help teams explore a topic and keep resulting work visible. A facilitator can use polling-booth mode for independent input, collect votes, or organize cards into a project view; the product page also describes a Jira connection for synchronizing cards and issues. It is geared toward practical workshop and project structures rather than only drawing freehand on an empty canvas.
The Free tier allows unlimited drafts and participants, but limits the total number of objects across drafts to 500. Paid plans raise that limit and add other controls such as versioning, password-protected sharing, and team administration. Business is designed for organization-wide use and charges for regular users while permitting occasional guest editors, according to the pricing comparison.
