Hide cards while everyone writes
Turn on Hide cards and each person only sees their own cards until the facilitator reveals them. No anchoring, no copying.
Anonymous by default, names when you want them
Participants can join without an account and stay anonymous, or add a display name. The facilitator decides whether card authors are shown.
Share your screen without leaking your votes
Presentation mode hides your own cards and votes so you can screen-share the board safely during the meeting.
Protect the board with a password
Add a password to a public board so only people you share it with can open the link.
