New to Miro AI? The fastest results come from features that operate right on the canvas, where your team already collaborates. Below are five easy tips you can try today—no complex setup needed.
Tip 1: Start with AI-boosted templates and Blueprints
Get started in minutes using templates that now come with Sidekicks and Flows built in. These AI-enhanced templates kickstart common boards (e.g., brainstorming, planning), so you don’t have to set up AI steps from scratch. If you have AI Canvas access, you’ll see automation and guidance available as soon as you open a compatible template.
Try this: open a relevant template, run the suggested AI steps, and compare before and after time to first result.
Tip 2: Use Sticky Notes AI to group, summarize, and tidy up
When a brainstorming session ends, the real work begins. Select your stickies and use Miro AI → Cluster to group by keywords or sentiment. Then run Miro AI → Document → Summary to turn disorganized ideas into a clear brief—all without leaving the board. It’s ideal for retro themes, research notes, or idea round-ups.
Bonus: If you’ve snapped photos of physical stickies, use Sticky Capture to convert them into editable notes before clustering.
Tip 3: Turn stickies into Docs (and more) with Create with AI
Avoid the hassle of copying and pasting into external tools. With Create with AI, select a group of stickies and generate a Doc (e.g., a meeting summary or prototype outline) in one step. You can also cluster by sentiment or keyword from the same context menu—perfect for transforming raw ideas into shareable documents quickly.
Try this: After brainstorming, convert the top clusters into a single summary Doc and share it for review directly on the board.
Tip 4: Follow prompt basics for clearer outputs
Clearer prompts lead to better outputs. Miro’s official prompting guide suggests being specific about context, audience, format, and constraints. When working with any Miro AI feature, add a sentence that explains the goal, the input selection, and the desired output structure (bullet list, table, or Doc).
Starter pattern: “Summarize the selected stickies for a product review meeting. Audience: engineering managers. Output: a Doc with three sections—Themes, Risks, Decisions—each with 3–5 bullets.”
Tip 5: Ask AI for quick insights from your work
Use Ask AI to query your backlog, feedback, or board content in natural language—it’s useful when you need quick prioritization signals or pattern detection. Keep your source data orderly for the best results, then use Ask AI to highlight trends and priority candidates in seconds.
Extra: Explore AI templates in Miroverse
If you prefer starting from community samples, browse AI & Transformation templates in Miroverse for boards that already incorporate AI-friendly structures. They’re excellent for workshops, strategy planning, and discovery activities.
Quick Setup Checklist (first week)
Select one AI-boosted template and follow its guided steps.
Conduct a short brainstorming session and use Cluster + Summary on the stickies.
Convert the output into a Doc with Create with AI and share it.
Use the prompting guide to refine your next AI action.
Try Ask AI on a backlog or research board to find quick insights.
