About

We build tools for people
who build things.

SketchPad is built by a small team of engineers and designers who were frustrated with slow, bloated whiteboard tools.

Our mission

Make collaboration feel like thinking together.

The best ideas happen when people can think together without friction. A whiteboard is the oldest collaboration tool in the world — we are making it work the way it should in 2025.

SketchPad is fast enough to keep up with your thoughts, simple enough to get out of the way, and powerful enough to replace every whiteboard tool your team uses.

The story

In 2023, our founding team was building a product together across three time zones. Every whiteboard tool they tried was either too slow, too expensive, or too complex.

So we built SketchPad — starting with the canvas, adding real-time sync, and shipping it in 6 weeks. 2,000 teams signed up in the first month.

Today SketchPad is used by designers, engineers, and product teams at some of the fastest-moving companies in the world.

What we believe

Our values

Speed above all

Every millisecond matters on a canvas. We obsess over performance so you can focus on creating, not waiting.

Radical simplicity

We say no to features that add complexity without adding value. The best tool is the one you barely notice using.

Teams first

Individual use is great, but SketchPad is built for the moments when a team aligns around a shared canvas.

Privacy by design

Your data belongs to you. We never sell it, never train AI on it, and never log more than we need to.
