Written by John Petty | 27-Feb-2023 09:07:51

Collaborative work has never moved faster — and if you're using Miro, you’ve probably wondered how to bring ChatGPT or other AI tools into your workflows to speed up ideation, strategy, and content development.

Originally, users had to find clever ways to bring AI into Miro from the outside. Now, in 2025, Miro includes its own built-in AI features — but many teams still combine it with tools like ChatGPT to enhance their whiteboarding and collaborative planning sessions.

TL;DR: Use ChatGPT for generating and refining content, then structure and visualise it in Miro using AI-powered features. This guide shows how to combine both tools for better, faster team collaboration.

This guide will walk you through:

  • How to use ChatGPT with Miro

  • What’s new in Miro’s own AI tools

  • Why AI is now essential for collaborative platforms

  • Step-by-step instructions for real-world use

🔍 Why Use ChatGPT with Miro?

ChatGPT helps break creative blocks, while Miro brings ideas to life visually.

Whether you’re brainstorming a campaign, planning a product launch, or mapping customer journeys — ChatGPT helps teams generate content, reframe ideas, and break through creative blocks fast.

When used inside Miro, it becomes a powerful combination:

  • AI generates ideas or summaries

  • Miro gives those ideas structure and flow

  • Teams collaborate in real time, from anywhere

⚡ What's New: Miro's Built-In AI (2025)

Since late 2023, Miro has introduced native AI features to help speed up your work without ever leaving the board.

✨ Miro AI can now:

  • 📝 Auto-generate sticky notes from text

  • 📚 Summarise long threads or workshops

  • 🛍️ Suggest next steps from brainstorms

  • 💠 Help you build user stories, mind maps, and project plans

  • 🖼️ Provide AI-generated content for diagrams and templates

This means you can now:

  • Use ChatGPT for deeper, text-based tasks

  • Let Miro AI handle fast structure and visual suggestions

Together, they create a seamless AI-powered workspace.

✅ Step-by-Step: How to Use ChatGPT with Miro

Even with Miro AI available, many teams still want to leverage ChatGPT directly — for better writing, deeper prompts, or specific formats. Here’s how to do it:

Step 1: Open Miro and Create a New Board

Start a fresh board or jump into an existing one for your team session, planning sprint, or brainstorm.

Step 2: Head to ChatGPT (chat.openai.com)

Open ChatGPT in a separate tab or window. You can use:

  • The free version (GPT-3.5)

  • Or ChatGPT Plus (with GPT-4), for longer, more contextual outputs

Step 3: Ask ChatGPT for Help

Now get creative. Here are some real examples to prompt ChatGPT:

💡 Prompt ideas:

  • "Give me 10 product launch ideas for a B2B SaaS company"

  • "Summarise this customer feedback thread into three key themes"

  • "Write a creative brief for a new campaign targeting Gen Z"

  • "What steps should a marketing team take to build a lead gen funnel?"

Step 4: Copy-Paste into Miro

Take the output from ChatGPT and paste it directly into Miro as:

  • Sticky notes

  • Text boxes

  • Tables

  • Mind map branches

  • Framework templates

From here, your team can build around the ideas collaboratively.

Step 5: Add Miro AI to the Mix

Once content is inside your board, use Miro AI to:

  • Summarise clusters of stickies

  • Turn messy notes into action items

  • Help visualise flows, steps, or user journeys

This combo of ChatGPT + Miro AI is where the real power kicks in.
