Scrintal
Visual note-taking and mind mapping on an infinite canvas.
About
Scrintal is a visual note-taking and mind-mapping tool built around an infinite canvas. Users organize ideas as cards with images, video, and media, connecting them through bi-directional backlinks so a board holds both the high-level overview and the details at once. It supports deep board nesting, rich media extraction, markdown, real-time collaboration, and export to PDF and Markdown.
Aimed at knowledge workers, students, and creative writers, it positions itself as a visual alternative to traditional personal knowledge management apps. A free plan exists alongside paid subscriptions. It is a smaller player next to Miro and Milanote, so buyers should weigh its focused visual-notes approach against broader whiteboard ecosystems.
