Describe what you need.SketchMind builds it.

Ask in plain words. SketchMind builds the board, the presentation, even a working tool, and asks for any facts it needs first. Your tasks, plans and goals live in the same workspace, on computer, phone and tablet.

Slide: How Response Time Has Grown Month by Month — a line chart peaking at 14 hours, +250% vs January.
Slide: Where Capacity Actually Breaks Down — 58, 412 and 14 hrs, each a founder-provided figure.
Slide: What Changes With Two Hires — today versus with two new hires.
Slide: Something Is Already Breaking — backlog, response time, escalations.
Real output Slides SketchMind made from a sentence — with the charts it picked itself
The night before

You know what to say.
You just can't get it on a slide.

Slides or a document?
Which template?

Still fixing the layout.

Starting from a blank page takes hours.SketchMind makes it ready to present.

Describe it in one sentence. You get the finished board or deck.

The next morning

A long message
is hard to follow.

In a block of text, people have to search for the point. Most stop reading after a few lines.

The same facts

A chart shows it
at a glance.

The same numbers as a slide: the trend, the peak and what it means. SketchMind chose a line chart because the numbers change over time.

You · 11:58 PM
Quick one before tomorrow — support is really stretched. First response was 4 hours in January, then 6 in March, 9 in May, 11 in July and now it's 14. Onboarding questions and billing are most of it. I think it's costing us customers, so I'd like to propose two extra hires next quarter. Happy to walk through the numbers…
Sorry — what exactly do you need from us?Mark · Seen 8:14 AM
SketchMind slide: How Response Time Has Grown Month by Month — the line rises from 4 hours in January to a peak of 14 in September, +250%.
How it works
One sentence is enough to start.
Before it writes

It asks for missing facts.
It does not make them up.

If an important number is missing, SketchMind asks you for it first — one question at a time.

Question 1 of 4
14hours

Your actual first-response time, not a guess.

Question 2 of 4
412tickets

Your real backlog goes straight onto the slide.

Question 4 of 4
$3,600per customer

What losing one customer costs you per year.

Multiple choice
One tap.

If there are only a few possible answers, you tap one.

No time?

Skip a question.
It stays open.

A skipped fact is shown as a question to confirm, so you can see what still needs checking.

SketchMind asks: What are your current and target first response times? Answer: 14 hours.
SketchMind asks: How many unresolved tickets are currently in your backlog? Answer: 412.
SketchMind asks: How much annual revenue does a single churned customer represent? Answer: $3,600.
SketchMind asks how support headcount changed, with the options Headcount flat, Headcount grew, Headcount shrank — Headcount flat selected.
SketchMind: more facts would sharpen this deck. Anything you skip is written as a question to confirm later, never invented.
SketchMind slide: Where Capacity Actually Breaks Down — 58 tickets per agent per day, 412 in the backlog, 14 hrs response time, each labelled founder-provided figure. 58 412 14 hrs
On the slide

Your numbers are marked as yours.

Every figure you gave carries a Founder-provided figure label, straight onto the slide. The ones you skipped stay open as questions to confirm — so nobody presents a guess as a fact.

Now get yourself ready.

1 · Ask once, with Build

The deck is done. The talk isn’t.

Tomorrow at 9:00 AM you present. Ask Build for what you actually need tonight: a coach for this exact talk.

2 · Before it builds

It asks three quick questions.

Research the questions leadership asks? Which tone? Which alerts? Tap an answer, or skip and let it decide.

3 · It researches, then builds

It looks up what leadership asks about new hires.

Then it reads your board and builds a working coach on it, while you watch.

4 · Rehearse

Talk. The clock keeps you honest.

Every slide has its own countdown: orange in the last 15 seconds, red when you’re over. One total timer for all 10 minutes.

5 · Q&A drill

Then the questions you dread.

Five flip cards with the toughest questions and a short answer on the back. Say it out loud, flip, mark it “Nailed it”.

6 · 9:00 AM

You walk in having said it all out loud.

Your timings, notes and drill marks are saved on the board. The deck makes the case. You make it land.

Leadership asks

What does it cost, and when does it pay back?

Short answer

Each customer we keep is worth $3,600. Put the yearly cost per hire next to the customers we stop losing, and the payback is a simple count of saved customers.

Flip cardDrill againNailed it

Questions based on what leadership weighs in headcount requests: cost and payback, alternatives to hiring, why two hires, the cost of waiting, and how success is measured.

Questions, answered.

What exactly does the AI make?

You pick one of four: Frames (4–8 editable frames on your board), a Presentation (6–8 designed slides with speaker notes, on Pro plans), a Flow (one frame with the steps and decision points) or a Checklist (one frame of grouped items you tick off). From a board you can make a document, and plans with owners and dates have their own tool.

Does it make things up?

It's built not to. When a fact is missing — a number, a date, who approves what — SketchMind asks before it writes. Anything you skip is written as a question to confirm, and figures you gave are labelled as yours.

What does “connected workspace” mean in practice?

Tasks you add from a board stay linked to it. Plans start from a board and their steps can point at a frame. You can start a focus session from a plan step, a task or the board. Documents are written from a board and marked out of date when the board changes. Goals track the tasks behind them.

Does it work on a phone or tablet?

Yes. On a phone you get the full workspace — home, boards, documents, agenda and plans. On a tablet you can work with a pen: hold it on the canvas for the radial menu, write by hand and convert it to text, and your palm won't draw.

Are the images on this page real?

Yes. Every product image here was generated in SketchMind and captured straight from the app — no mockups. The profile photos in the chat example are illustrative.

Is it really free?

Yes. The Free plan is free forever: 5 boards, 5 AI boards, 5 AI rewrites and 10 handwriting conversions, with no credit card. The AI allowances on Free are one-time; monthly allowances start with Pro.

Do you train AI on my boards?

No. Your boards are private by default and we don't use your boards or prompts to train our own models. See the Privacy Policy.
