Lucidspark

Lucidspark is Lucid's online whiteboard for team brainstorming, workshops and planning, with a free plan and paid tiers from $9 a month billed annually.

Our take: Lucidspark covers what most teams need from a whiteboard: sticky notes, templates, voting, timers and AI that sorts a messy board into themes.

What it really isLucid's collaborative whiteboard for workshops, sitting next to Lucidchart in one account.
Our takeLucidspark covers what most teams need from a whiteboard: sticky notes, templates, voting, timers and AI that sorts a messy board into themes.
It makes the most sense if your company already uses Lucidchart, since the two share an account and Lucidspark Enterprise includes Lucidchart. The free plan is fine for trying it, but three boards run out fast, and the headline prices assume annual billing.
Why we rate itWorkshop-ready facilitation tools plus 100+ integrations and native Lucidchart pairing.
The catchThree-board free cap, annual-billing headline prices, and breakout boards and Jira integrations held back for Enterprise.

Best / not good for

Best for
  • Teams already on Lucidchart
  • Agile retros and sprint planning
  • Facilitated remote workshops
Not good for
  • Heavy free use beyond three boards
  • Teams that need breakout boards without Enterprise
  • Detailed technical diagramming (use Lucidchart)
Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

  1. Time to value
    Low: sign up free and start from a template in minutes.
  2. Scale breakpoint
    A fourth editable board forces a paid plan; breakout boards and SAML need Enterprise.
  3. Walled garden
    Low to moderate: many integrations and a developer platform on Team.
