Start with a room ID
Custom or auto-generated. The creator is host and can close the room to free the slot.
Six things on the paper
Join, draw, talk, time, vote. No plans. No “sign up to see the rest.”
Why wbstorm
No account wall
No signup, no login. Share the ID only with people you want in the brainstorm.
Talk while you draw
Unmute to talk. Most brainstorms only need a voice and a page — camera is optional.
A live shared canvas
Boxes, lines, type, and strokes sync live. Product, design, and marketing edit the same picture.
Timer and vote
A timer for pace. A vote to close. Both sync to everyone in the room.
Take the picture when you leave
Download the board anytime. After the host closes, the image stays about 15 minutes.
Join with just a room ID
Custom or generated. The host can close the room and free the slot immediately.
On the home page you can set a room ID (1–20 letters, numbers, hyphen, underscore) or leave it blank. Send the ID; anyone opens a browser and joins.
The creator holds the host credential and can close the room. No waiting for expiry. The slot is freed at once.
No account wall. The room ID is the only credential. Share it only with people who should be in the brainstorm.
- No download: Chrome / Edge / Safari / Firefox
- No signup: create or join with a room ID only
- Closeable: the host ends the session and can download a board snapshot
The canvas is the table. Voice is optional.
Start on the board. Unmute to argue. No screen share. Camera is optional.
Voice is WebRTC. Most brainstorms only need a mic, so average networks stay usable.
The explanation lives on paper: boxes, arrows, notes. Late arrivals read the picture instead of a ten-minute recap.
If you cannot connect, switch networks, drop the VPN, or open a system browser. IDE preview panes usually cannot capture a microphone.
- Voice optional: you can draw without talking
- No screen share: no one fights for the picture
- Permission: the first unmute asks for the microphone
Board, timer, and vote
An infinite canvas syncs live. Timer and vote sit on the room bar.
When you talk through a concept, a journey, or a line, drop boxes and words in the middle, then connect them with arrows.
Many hands at once. Late arrivals catch up from the picture. Use the timer to diverge, a vote to close.
After close, the board image stays about 15 minutes so you can come back with the same ID. Do not treat it as a library.
- Fits product ideation, design critique, campaign brainstorms
- Strokes and shapes sync so you stop screenshotting the chat
- A short download window after close — export what matters
