# Lucidspark

> Virtual whiteboard for team brainstorming and workshops

Lucidspark is the virtual whiteboard from Lucid Software, the company behind Lucidchart. Teams brainstorm on an infinite canvas with sticky notes, freehand drawing, mind maps and templates, then gather and sort what they collected. Paid plans add facilitation tools such as voting and timers, and the Enterprise plan bundles Lucidchart and adds breakout boards.

## Ways to pay less

- **Lower price with annual billing** (Annual discount): Lucid's pricing FAQ says paid plans can be paid monthly or, at a saving, annually. The listed rates are the annual ones and the page does not state the size of the saving. Source: https://lucid.app/pricing/lucidspark
- **Free upgrade for students and educators** (Education): Accounts registered with a valid educational email address are upgraded automatically at no charge. Schools can also request a quote for Education Premium. Source: https://lucid.co/lucidspark/use-cases/education

## Key features

- **Infinite canvas:** Boards hold sticky notes, shapes, freehand drawing, images and comments, with Gather and Sort tools to group notes after a brainstorm.
- **Visual Activities:** Interactive exercises collect input from a group and turn it into results the team can act on. Basic activities are free; premium ones need a paid plan.
- **Facilitation tools:** Team plans add voting, a timer, a laser pointer, facilitator controls and the option to call everyone to one spot. Breakout boards are Enterprise only.
- **Lucid AI:** AI generates ideas, sorts notes into themes and summarizes a session. It is listed on every plan, with a note that it may move to a paid model later.
- **Lucid Cards and Dynamic Table:** Lucid Cards work with task tools such as Jira and Azure DevOps to turn ideas into next steps, and Dynamic Table organizes ideas for visual planning.
- **Mind maps and templates:** A mind map can be added to any board in a few clicks, and the template gallery covers retrospectives, sprint planning, roadmaps, SWOT analysis and more.

## Good for

- Remote and hybrid teams running brainstorms and workshops
- Agile teams holding standups, sprint planning and retrospectives
- Organizations that already use Lucidchart for diagrams
- Teachers and students, who get a free upgrade with a school email

## Worth knowing

- The Free plan is limited to 3 editable boards.
- The iOS app requires a Team or Enterprise subscription; Free and Individual accounts are pointed to the browser version instead.
- Voting, timers, guest collaborators and revision history start at Team; breakout boards, SAML and the Jira and Azure DevOps integrations are Enterprise only.
- The pricing page shows only annual-billing rates. Its FAQ says monthly billing is available but gives no monthly price.
