Pull in references, drop a spreadsheet straight onto the board and let it become a table. Build the picture with sticky notes, sketches, diagrams, clips and docs — reachable from any device you happen to have open.

Facilitate a session where the quietest person in the room gets the same airtime as the loudest — whatever timezone the room happens to span.

The good ones rarely arrive on schedule. An endless canvas gives a team somewhere to leave half-thoughts lying around until they turn into something worth building.
Let people vote anonymously so seniority stops deciding what wins. Keyword search, tags and clustering mean nothing good quietly falls off the board.
Keep a single source of truth for the decisions you already made. Old boards become reference material instead of orphaned files nobody can find.
Steer ideation across the org and run workshops where everyone contributes. Photograph a wall of paper notes and Ravel turns them into editable stickies in seconds.
Move ideas through the pipeline from raw note to shipped thing. Draft the plan on the same board and check in on it a fortnight later.
Ravel is a visual collaboration platform for planning, co-creating and then actually doing the thing. Run sessions that generate more ideas and waste less of everyone’s afternoon.
A shared workspace where sticky notes behave the way they do on a good wall — only nobody has to peel them off at the end of the day.

Give scattered ideas a shape and share them across teams. The fastest way to capture, organise and branch a thought before it evaporates.
Learn moreLink the key concepts and get the big picture in one look. Useful when a team agrees on the parts but not on how they connect.
Learn moreCollect the references, colours and half-stolen screenshots that explain a direction faster than three paragraphs of copy ever will.
Learn moreGet everyone moving, sharing and generating ideas quickly with a pre-built pack of coloured stickies.
Learn moreWork through a decision from six angles so a team builds real agreement instead of loud consensus.
Learn moreFlip the question and ask how you would cause the problem. The fix usually falls out of the answers.
Learn moreEight sketches in eight minutes. Perfect for the point in a workshop where the room has gone quiet.
Learn moreStart from the template picker rather than a blank board. A pre-built frame gives the session somewhere to begin and saves the first ten minutes of shuffling.
Write the question at the top, set a timer and mark out the areas people should fill. Constraints get more ideas out of a room than open space does.
Everyone writes at once, silently, for the first stretch. Then cluster the notes together and let the duplicates show you where the energy actually is.
Vote, pick three, and give each one an owner and a date before anyone leaves the call. The board stays as the record of why you chose them.
Come at a familiar problem from a new angle with templates for mind mapping, brainwriting, reverse brainstorming and more.
Yes, and no card is needed to start. Once you have an account you can add the Brainstorming Tools template from the picker, invite as many people as you like to that board, and work on it together for as long as you need.
A shared canvas, a timer, and a question worth answering. Everything else — voting, clustering, sketching, a call window pinned to the corner — is already built into the board.
Broadly: divergent tools that help a group produce more ideas, and convergent tools that help it choose between them. Ravel ships templates for both, which is usually where sessions come unstuck.
Open ones with a boundary. “How might we cut onboarding to under four minutes?” produces better notes than “any ideas about onboarding?” because it tells people what a good answer looks like.
Send the board ahead of time, run silent writing first, cluster in the open, then vote. Close by naming three owners. The whole thing fits comfortably in 45 minutes.
