If you're still clicking the toolbar to select tools in Miro, you're slowing yourself down. In this third installment of our Miro Shortcuts series, we cover six hidden mechanics that let you bypass the menus entirely - from toggling comments in one keystroke to applying protected locks without touching a single right-click menu. These are the shortcuts that separate casual Miro users from the top 1%. Learn them once and you'll never reach for the toolbar the same way again.

Most people use Miro as it comes out of the box, but power users know that customizing your workspace can save you hours every week. In this video, we walk through four levels of Miro customization, from quick toolbar tweaks to building AI workflows tailored to how your entire team thinks and works. By the end, you won't just have a faster Miro setup. You'll have an AI Innovation Workspace that captures your team's best practices, speaks your language, and gets smarter the more you use it.

In this video, Horea Porutiu (Developer Advocate at Miro) demonstrates how to leverage Cursor’s new Automation feature alongside the Miro MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. Watch as we build a custom automation that triggers from a Slack message to automatically generate documentation, comparison tables, and flowcharts directly on a Miro board. If you're looking to streamline the tedious parts of your engineering workflow and focus on creative problem-solving, this AI-driven integration is for you.

In the second episode of the How We Work podcast, host Dominik Katz sits down with Joe McLean, Product Lead for AI Canvas at Miro. Together, they explore the reality of building in the AI era, from the psychological shifts in engineering to the fine line between high-speed innovation and "slop." Joe shares candid insights on why the "bad version" is often your most powerful tool and how AI is fundamentally changing the solo nature of deep work.

You already know how to create mind maps in Miro. This video is about mastering them. These five advanced techniques will change how you plan, collaborate, and build in Miro, from turning mind maps into interactive navigation hubs to using Miro Flows to go from rough ideas to a clickable prototype in minutes. If you've been using mind maps as static documents, this is your sign to stop. When combined with Miro AI, Sidekicks, and Flows, your mind map becomes the starting point for your entire workflow, not the end of it.

Diagramming shouldn't be a manual chore. Whether you are building complex UML sequences, mapping out user onboarding, or organizing an ERD for a CRM, Miro’s AI Innovation Workspace has changed the workflow entirely. We’re diving into four specific ways to optimize your diagrams, ranging from precision AI prompting to managing complex information with Diagram Layers. We also cover how to maintain a "single source of truth" using Synced Copies across Miro Docs and different boards.
