Sketch with your team in the excellent Excalidraw editor, then keep the boards in an application you run. Draw adds private workspaces, precise sharing, live updates and an MCP door for agents.
Every board starts private.
Each person gets a private place to sketch before inviting anyone else.
Give one teammate view or edit access without opening the board to everyone.
Open a board to the whole team as viewers or editors.
Create a revocable signed link for somebody who only needs to see the board.
Managed WebSockets carry board changes between people working at the same time.
Agents can make and edit sketches through bounded MCP tools instead of pretending a diagram is prose.
Excalidraw is a superb open-source editor and the drawing surface at the heart of Draw. Teams that want Excalidraw's full hosted product should use Excalidraw+ at https://plus.excalidraw.com.
Draw runs in your Laravel Cloud account with its database, queue and WebSocket application provisioned there.
Be honest about it
The repository is public and open source. These are the steps, and you are welcome to spend the afternoon doing them by hand.
Connect the Scalpels team to the GitHub account that should own Draw.
Deploy through Scalpels with Postgres, a managed queue and managed WebSockets.
Open Draw, make a private board, then choose who can view or edit it.
Or let Scalpels do it, free. It forks the app, provisions exactly what it needs on your Laravel Cloud account, and deploys it. The app and the infrastructure are yours either way — the only question is who spends the afternoon.
