Moodboard maker
Where the look comes together.
A real canvas for references, notes and direction. Drag anything anywhere, connect ideas with arrows, pull frames from Figma, Drive or the job itself, and send the board to the client for pinned feedback.
No credit card needed. Set up in minutes.

Look & feel
The problem
The look of the job gets decided across a Pinterest board, a Figma file and a folder of screenshots, and none of them is attached to the job. Three weeks later nobody can find the frame everyone agreed on.
Drag anything onto the canvas.
The tool rail down the side holds everything a board is made of. Every tool is dragged, never clicked, so a new card lands exactly where you drop it instead of on top of the reference you were looking at.
Notes with real formatting
Bold, italic, underline, lists and links, written straight onto the board, with a colour for the card itself.
Headings that read from across the room
Any size from a small caption to a banner, a text colour, and a fill so a section of the board has a clear label.
To-do cards
A checklist for what the look still needs before the shoot, ticked off on the board where everyone can see it.
Colour and shape cards
Swatches and simple shapes for the parts of a look that are not a photograph.
Drag-only on purpose
Clicking a tool tells you to drag it rather than dropping a card somewhere random, so the board never fills up with cards to dig out.

The references already live somewhere. Pull them in.
A board is only useful if feeding it is faster than keeping the screenshots in a folder. So references come in from wherever they already are, and an uploaded image is on the board the moment you drop it, while it saves in the background.
Upload from your device
Drop a batch of photos at once. They appear instantly and finish saving while you keep working.
Paste any link
The page's title and preview image are pulled in, so a Pinterest pin or a director's reel becomes a card you can read at a glance.
From the project's own assets
Pick anything already in the job's library without downloading and re-uploading it.
Google Drive
Browse your folders or search, and bring files straight onto the board.
Figma frames
Paste a Figma file link and import its frames as images.
Video cards
A clip plays on the board, with a caption under it like any image.

Add references
A hundred references, still a board you can read.
Every moodboard eventually becomes a pile. Columns, arrows and lines are how this one stays a board: group what belongs together, and draw the reasoning, not just the references.
Columns
Drag a card onto a column and it files itself inside. Reorder within the column, or pull a card back out onto the board.
Connections
Drag from a card's anchor to another card and an arrow joins them, so the board records why two frames belong together.
Lines and arrows
Free lines in any colour, solid or dashed, with a weight, a label, and an arrowhead on either end or both.
Captions
A line of text under any image or video card, for the note that only makes sense next to the picture.
A board per job, or for the whole studio
Attach a board to one project, or keep a studio-wide board that follows you across every job.

These are the frames the client liked most.
Pick a card and the tools become its tools.
Select anything and the rail turns into that card's editor, in the same spot, so the canvas never shifts and nothing covers the card you are working on. The small things behave the way your hands expect them to.
A rail that changes with the selection
A note gets text formatting and colours, an image gets resize and link tools, a line gets its style. Options open in a small flyout on demand.
Resize from any corner
Four visible handles, and the opposite corner stays put while you drag.
Zoom that behaves
Pinch twice as far and it zooms twice as much, anchored under your cursor, on a trackpad or a mouse wheel.
Undo and redo
Sixty steps of history per board, on Cmd or Ctrl Z.
Copy and paste between boards
Copy a card on one board and paste it onto another, even on a different project.
Dots, grid or plain
Choose the canvas background that suits the board.

Look and feel for the hero spot
Warm morning light. Nothing staged, nothing glossy.
Send the board. Get pins back.
When the look is ready, the client reviews the board itself, not a PDF of it. They open a link with no login, point at the exact reference they mean, and sign it off, and every note lands back on the job.
A link, no account needed
The client opens the board in their browser and can comment and approve straight away.
Pinned comments
Numbered pins on the exact spot, with threaded replies and reactions, so feedback is never an adjective in an email.
Drawing on the board
Arrows, circles, boxes and freehand marks in a few colours, attached to the comment they explain.
Internal review first
Send the board to your team's review before the client sees it, then share it once it is greenlit.
Into the client binder
Add the approved board to the project binder alongside the storyboard and the shot list.

The difference
It is connected, not another silo.
A standalone moodboard tool is one more place the job leaks into. This canvas lives inside the production: it reads the project's own assets, it reaches Figma and Drive where the references already are, and its output goes into the same review flow as the cut.
- The frame everyone agreed on is findable, on the job, forever
- Client feedback arrives as pins on the board, not adjectives in an email
- No exports, no re-uploads, no wondering which version of the board this is

Undo and redo
Sixty steps of history per board, on the keyboard shortcut your hands already know.
Link cards
Paste a URL and get a titled card carrying the page's own preview image.
Rich text notes
Bold, lists, links and a color for the card, edited on the board itself.
Resize from any corner
Four visible handles, and the opposite corner stays pinned while you drag.
Lines and arrowheads
Solid or dashed, a weight, a label, and an arrowhead on either end or both.
Zoom that behaves
Pinch twice as far and it zooms twice as much, anchored under the cursor.
To-do cards
A checklist card for the things the look still needs before the shoot.
Shapes and color
Blocks of color and simple shapes, for the parts of a look that are not a photograph.
The job's, or the studio's
A board can belong to one project, or float above all of them and follow you.
