Which one is for you
Pick FigJam if
- Fits if your team already designs in Figma and wants boards beside the designs
- Works for stand-ups, retros and workshops that need a timer and voting, from $3 a Collab seat
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a whiteboard bought by itself, as FigJam only comes with a Figma seat
- Tight if you're staying free, with 3 FigJam files in the team folder, 30 days of history and no voting
- Not for you if you sketch on your phone, as the iPhone and Android apps only view and comment
- Watch out: custom palettes and organization-wide templates need Organization, which is billed annually only
- Pricey if some people need Full seats, at $16 a month on Professional and $55 on Organization
Pick MockFlow if
- Fits if you sketch wireframes and run workshops in the same tool
- Works for a team that lives in Slack, Jira or Google Meet
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you do commercial work on Basic, as it is for personal and nonprofit use only
- Tight if you stay free: 4 projects and 200 items a board
- Watch out: an idle Basic account may be closed after 60 days
- Pricey if you want the offline app, SSO or Figma export, which need Max at $14 an editor a month
How we grade them
| 3.0GPAFigJamVery good | 2.2GPAMockFlowFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | AA Collab seat on Professional is $3 a month billed annually, against a category whose middle plan is $8.33. That's about a third of the going rate for full FigJam access. The catch isn't the price: it's that you're buying a Figma plan for the whole product set, not a whiteboard. | CPlus is $9 an editor a month billed yearly, near the $8.25 middle. Max is $14. |
| Free plan and trial | BStarter is free: unlimited drafts, the timer, tables, code blocks, diagramming tools and 150 AI credits a day up to 500 a month. The team folder holds only 3 FigJam files, though, history stops at 30 days, and voting, open sessions and audio are out. | CBasic is free for one editor with 4 projects, 200 items a board and 100 AI credits a month. It is for personal and nonprofit use, and may be closed after 60 days without a sign-in. |
| Features | BThe whole whiteboard job: stickies, shapes and connectors, tables and code blocks, a shared timer, stamps, voting, Spotlight for guiding a group, AI that drafts templates and sorts stickies into themes, and 300-odd ready-made boards for kickoffs and retros. | CWhiteboard, wireframes, AI, workshop tools, automations and developer access. The listing shows the desktop app, SSO and Figma export are limited to Max. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. Templates mean you rarely start from a blank board, but getting started means setting up a Figma team and working out which seat you need, Collab, Dev or Full, for the whole Figma product set rather than just a whiteboard. | CNo store rating on record. Building boards and wireframes is a learning curve. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, Mac and Windows, with Jira, Asana, GitHub, Slack, Notion and Google Workspace wired in. Phones are where it stops short: the iPhone and Android apps only view and comment on FigJam files, and sketching on mobile is iPad only. | BWeb, Mac and Windows apps, and a browser extension, with Slack, Jira, Teams and Figma. No phone app listed. |
| Best for | team whiteboards if you already use Figma | whiteboards and wireframes with an AI helper |

- Open sessions

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
