AI picks the right timeline format.
AI reads your prompt and selects the best format for you. Historical topics get date based timelines with real chronological dates. Processes and workflows get stage based timelines with meaningful phase labels, with no manual setup.
- Date mode. Real dates for historical events, company milestones and project deadlines.
- Stage mode. Phase labels for processes, lifecycles and step by step workflows.
- Horizontal and vertical. Choose the layout orientation that fits your whiteboard space.
- AI cover images. Generated visuals for each event make timelines vivid.
Refine timelines through conversation.
Talk to Mida, your AI design assistant, to adjust your timelines naturally. Add events, change dates, update descriptions or restructure the whole flow, all through simple conversation while keeping your existing timeline intact.
You: "Add a beta testing phase between development and launch"

Frequently asked questions.
What does an AI-generated timeline include?
Each timeline includes multiple events with titles, descriptions, and either real dates or stage labels. You can also enable AI-generated cover images for each event to make your timeline more visual and engaging.
How does AI decide between dates and stages?
AI analyzes your prompt context. Topics with documented historical dates (like company histories or world events) get date-based timelines. Processes, lifecycles, and workflows get stage-based timelines with meaningful phase labels.

Yes. Use Mida, the AI assistant, to add, remove, or change events through conversation. You can also directly edit event titles, descriptions, and dates on the whiteboard.
What is the Multi Visual Planner?
The Multi Visual Planner lets you paste a project brief or transcript, and AI creates an entire whiteboard with a timeline alongside mind maps, kanban boards, flowcharts, and other components, all from a single prompt.
