# What are Concept Builders

> Concept Builders are AI collaborators with a defined role, such as an MVP scope shaper or a game designer, that develop your idea through chat and draw the concept on your board.

A Concept Builder is an AI collaborator with a defined role. Where Mida is a general assistant, a Concept Builder is a specialist: an MVP scope shaper, a PRD architect, a game designer, a brand namer or a course planner. It asks the questions that role would ask, develops your idea with you over several sessions and draws the concept on your board.

## Find a Concept Builder

1. Click the **Concept Builders** icon in the bottom toolbar, then **Add Concept Builder**. You can also open Mida and choose a builder from the menu next to its name.
2. In the **Concept Builder Library**, pick a category (1), such as **Product**, **Games**, **Startup**, **Brand**, **Education** or **Strategy**, or describe your idea in the search box to find a builder.
3. Click a builder to open it.

The builder opens in the panel where Mida usually sits, with a short description of its role and a few starting points to choose from.

## How Concept Builders differ from Mida

- **A defined role:** each builder follows the method of its specialty, so the questions and the result fit the job, such as a must-have list and build order for an MVP.
- **Memory:** a builder remembers what you discussed in earlier sessions on the board, so you can pick up where you left off.
- **Shared with your team:** a builder's chats are saved and shared with your team, while chats with Mida are private and reset each session.

## Public and team builders

- **Public** builders are available to everyone.
- **Team** builders are the ones your team has created.

To make your own, click **New** (2). See [Create your own Concept Builder](/docs/create-your-own-concept-builder).
