What our research says

Miro AI

The reason Miro AI beats a bolted-on chat box is context: the canvas is the prompt, so clustering, summarising and drafting land back on the board where the team already works. The cost model is the catch — AI credits are small on every tier and reset monthly, so real use pushes you upward. If your team is not already in Miro, none of this justifies a switch.

Pros

  • Uses existing board content as context, not a blank prompt
  • Prebuilt Playbooks for planning, prototyping and research
  • 250+ integrations plus a developer platform and MCP server
  • Free tier still includes 10 AI credits a month

Cons

  • AI credits are tightly capped: 25 per member on the $8 tier
  • Enterprise requires a 30-member minimum
  • Only worth paying for if the team is already on Miro

Slashspace

Branching on a canvas genuinely fits how research goes — you follow a tangent without losing the trunk, which a linear chat cannot do. At $89 a year it is now priced like a utility rather than a premium chat client, and because it runs on your own keys, subscriptions or local models, heavy users keep model spend on their own accounts.

Pros

  • Canvas branching keeps tangents beside the original thread
  • Local-first storage rather than cloud-only history
  • Works with your own API keys, Claude or ChatGPT subscriptions and local models
  • One-time lifetime licence available at $249

Cons

  • The included wallet grant is small; hosted-model use beyond it needs top-ups with a 10% fee
  • Licences cover two devices only
  • Lifetime price is labelled a limited-time offer, so it may change

Which one fits

Choose Miro AI if you need

  • teams that already run workshops in Miro

Choose Slashspace if you need

  • Researchers exploring several threads from one question
  • People who want to compare several models' answers side by side
  • Users who already pay for Claude or ChatGPT and want a different interface on top
