Think out loud.
An endless canvas for cards, connections, images and sketches. Start anywhere. Go everywhere.
Everything on one canvas.
Start with a double-click.
Click anywhere and start typing. Move, resize, rotate or delete any card in a second.
Connect your thoughts.
Drag a line from one card to another. Recolor it, or let Optimize pick the cleanest sides.
Tidy up in one click.
Tidy up turns a branch into a neat tree. Spread pulls overlapping cards apart. Fit to text sizes a card to its words.
Bring in images.
Drag images onto the canvas, paste them from the clipboard or pick a file.
Draw a shape. Get a clean one.
Sketch in any color. Hold still for a moment and your stroke becomes a clean line, ellipse, rectangle or triangle. Then reshape it with handles.
Move many at once.
Draw a selection box around a group of cards, then move or scale the whole group together.
Never lose your place.
Zoom smoothly to your cursor, fit everything to the screen, or jump anywhere with the minimap.
Change your mind.
Undo and redo every step. Copy and paste works inside Brainer and with your other apps.
Take it with you.
Export a brainstorm or a whole folder as one .brainer file, images included. Open it again with a double-click.
From one idea to the whole picture.
Start with a single card. Branch out until the plan is clear. Then turn it into tasks on a board.
Questions? Answers.
What is a brainstorm in Brainer?
An endless canvas where you place cards, connect them with lines, add images and draw freehand. You can keep as many brainstorms as you like, sorted into folders.
Can I add images?
Yes. Drag them onto the canvas, paste them from the clipboard or choose a file.
Can I export a brainstorm?
Yes. Export a single brainstorm or a whole folder as a .brainer file. Images are embedded, so the file stands on its own.
