The Verdict
InVision is built for design teams and product managers, with a focus on prototyping and freehand-whiteboard. Miro targets designers and product teams and leads with whiteboard and templates.
Both tools come in at similar price points ($7.95/mo for InVision, $8/mo for Miro), so pricing won't make the decision for you.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Miro edges out on user ratings (4.5 vs 3.8). While both are well-regarded, that gap reflects real differences in user satisfaction worth considering.
Bottom line: Miro has a slight overall edge — but if excellent prototyping with hotspots and transitions matters most to you, InVision may still be the right call.
