Best for online tutoring rooms with a whiteboard
Scribblar is a teaching room built around a shared whiteboard with audio, video and chat, and it turns PDFs and slides into whiteboard pages. It has no free plan, only a 7-day trial, and every plan caps rooms, people per room and pages per file.
Who Scribblar is for
- Fits if you tutor one to one or in small groups online
- Works for teachers who want to turn existing slides and PDFs into lesson pages
Who Scribblar is not for
- Skip it if you want a free plan, because there's only a 7-day trial
- Tight if you grow: 3, 10 or 30 rooms, and 3, 5 or 15 users per room
- Tight if you have long files: conversion stops at 25, 50 or 100 pages per file
- Watch out: Enterprise has no published price
Why Scribblar gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for money$19 a month for 3 rooms, $32 for 10 and $59 for 30. The category's dearer quarter starts at $10.95, but it's a teaching room, not just a board.
- DFree plan and trialA 7-day trial with 3 rooms and up to 3 users, and the page doesn't say whether a card is needed. Nothing free after that.
- CFeaturesWhiteboard, audio, video, chat and document conversion. Rooms, users per room and pages per file are all capped by plan.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. You set up rooms and upload lesson files first.
- CPlatforms and integrationsBrowser only, and no integrations are listed.

Keep Scribblar, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Scribblar you would be making video calls. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 91 of the 98 other whiteboard and mind map tools grade higher. It costs $228 a year.
What you could not
- Video calls.
- An endless canvas that stays smooth with hundreds of things on it.
- A slide editor.
- Several people working in it at the same moment.
What this rests on. Scribblar’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
